RETURN OF COMET SIGHTED AT HARVARD
Ey Science Service CAMBRIDGE, Mass., May 6.—The | Grigg-Skjellerup comet is back in | telescopic view again after five | years of wandering away from the | vicinity of the sun. This periodic comet, number four |
{ among the comets of 1937, was re- |
discovered Friday morning by L. E. Cunningham of Harvard College Observatory. i Too faint to be seen without “tie aid of a large telescope, it is located approximately halfway between the | bright stars Betelgeuse in the con-
stellation of Orion and Procyon in
Canis Minor. Astronomers had predicted its return and computed ac=
curately where the comet would be |
discovered. It is not expected to be-
come visible to the unaided eye and |
it has no o tail, 4

Rural Competition Charged
“The New Deal in competing with! |§
Indiana .banks in rural banking |
fields because the Federal Farm Ad- | |# ministration is making loans to!|@
farmers from money loaned to thei
Administration by the banks,” Mr. | |§
: Myers told the bankers.
“In the fast-changing financial! picture, ! companies is usurping functions formerly looked on as exclusive to | the banking field,” he said. “Fatalities” among banks in! In- | diana over the 20-year period totaled |
‘nearly 50 per cent. The number of || 8
banks operating in the state in’ 1916 | was more than. 1000, showed in 1936, the number had | dropped to 542, Mr. Myers reported. | “In the same pericd, however, the | average resources per bank |in- r creased from $572,000 to $1.592,000,” he said. From this development, it]
will be seen that the ability of the ||| average bank to serve its clinetele, | |8
as measured by its resources, prob- |
ably has kept pace with the in- || creased size to which manufactur- || ing and merchandising establish- |B
ments have grown,” Mr. Myers said.
