STEVENSON INTERVIEWED Surrounded

Object 6 Billion
Light Years Away
Photographed
Eugene (UPI)-- A photograph
Jias been taken of something
six billion light years away
from earth, the most distant
object ever identified, a sci
entist said here Monday.
Dr. Rudolph Minkowski of
the Mt. Wilson and Palonnir
Observatories in California
told the Pacific division meet
ing of the American Associa
tion for the Advancement of
Science that the photograph
was of a galaxy or perhaps a
pair of galaxies in collision.
The photograph was taken
with the 200-inch Hale tele
scope, world's largest optical
instrument.
Fastest Speed Measured
Dr. Minkowski said the pin
point of light was receding
from earth at about half the
speed of light, or some 90.000
miles per second. He said it
was the fastest such speed
ever measured.
He said objects in space be
yond our own Milky Way
galary appear to be rushing
away as if hurled by an ex
plosion. Astronomers said the find
was exciting because it may
have an impact on theories
of the nature and origin of
matter in space. One theory
says matter is being generat
ed continually throughout the
universe which is a stable
stale. Another pictures the
universe as starting with a II
tantic explosion which is still
in progress.
Dr. Minkowski said the new
galaxy was so far away it ap
prared as a blurred dot on a
photographic plate after a
two-hour exposure. He identi
fied it with the aid of astrono
mers at Ihe Caltech Radio
Observatory.

$47,000.
The 1959 Legislature allo

"There may be an effort to

Hurt by Automobile
Grants Pass A three-year-old
boy, who released the
brakes on an automobile in
the family driveway and then
was run over by a wheel of
the car, is recovering today
at his ranch home about two
miles south of Wimer.
The child is George Ronald
Bottorff, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Robert S. Bottorff.
Although there were no
witnesses, state police believe
the tot was playing in the
car, and when it began to
move, fell out in such a way
that a rear wheel ran over his
body.
Members of the family said
that no bones were broken
but that the boy was bruised
about the lung area.
He was taken to Josephine
General hospital following
the accident, but was released
Sunday. Doctors indicated
that further examination will
be necessary.

The state board will inven

down policy in rentals and
other matters.
Only personnel on the old
armory boards to survive the

These officers, Latham said,
will become armory mana

received no money for serv

The new board's president
