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! |§

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.
