THE GIANTS OF MARS
PROF. L0WELL'S "DISC0V-
ERY" OF THEM RlDICULED.
Pennsylvania Astronomer skeptical Con-
corning Theories of Life on
Neighbor Planet.

PHILADELPHIA, July S~.-Although as
tronomers all over the world gave the
planet Mars special attention during the
past twenty-four hours. when 1t was closer
10 the carth'g orbit than It will be for
many years In the future, Professor Charles
L. Doolittle. Of the University of Penn
sylvania. is still unwilling to acknowledge
the claims OF fellow scientists that 1t is
possible to discern real symptoms of life
on the planet. Incidentally he declared
that the talk about gigantic men having
been aeen is utter nonsense.
In discussing the theories that Mars Is
constantly drawing closer to the earth and
the Martians more easily discernible by
astronomer Professor Dcolittle said yes
terday:
IF MFRS should travel toward the earth
at the rate OF one mile a year it would
take exactly ss,c0o,000 years TO reach here.
Though the orbits of Mars and the earth
were closer on Saturday than they will be
for many years to come. that Is a very
natural occurrence. All of the planets al
stated intervals grow closer to us. but
That is all 1t amounts to-
When asked what evidences Of life there
were on Mars, Prof. Doollttle said;
Speaking from the researches of Other
scientists, | should say that some unusual
things have been seen on the planet Mars.
For instance. the canals they speak OF
may be discernible through n powerful
telescope and under good atmospheric con
ditions, but under ordinary circumstance
1t is hardly fair to astronomers to say thai
signs of real life are clear and distinct.
You know there are atmospheric eruptions
to be taken into consideration as we'll as
climatic cham es.
THE ordinary astronomer Is too busily
engaged in research work to devote his
undivided attention to Mars. Stars. the
sun and many other important factors In
the realm of science are still too far from
being thoroughly understood to give then
all up for a planet 3S, coo, 900 miles away,
Personally l think there are far more i'm
portant points to be cleared up along
other lines than to make a speciality OF
Mars
In discussing the remarkable discoveries
of Prof. Percival Lowell, of Flagstaff
Ariz., Prof. Doolittle continued;
prof. Lowell, l believe. has made SON
notable discoveries since he took up the
study of Mars exclusively, but 1 can
hardly say that l am in accord with all
he claims. As for those men ten and
twelve feet high whom ii has been said
he saw on Mars, l think is ridiculous. ]
am acquainted with Prof. Lowell, but ]
wouldn't hesitate TO tell him frankly that
] think some of the theories attributed to
him are foolish.
'Of course, you understand these may
be rumors and not Lowell theories, and IL
that case 1t is unjust to critieise the
