SCIENTIST DISCUSSES
THE CANALS OF MARS
BY Associated Press.


PASADENA, Cal, March 5.-In a
lecture at Throop polytechnic institute
here last night, Dr. George w. Hale
director of the Mount Wilson instltu
tion, discussed recent astronomical
photography, asserting his belief that
the Martian "canals' were not arti-
fetal works, but natural depressions in
the planet.
"Visual and Photographic observa-
tions Of Mars made on Mount Wilson
with the sixty.inch rejecting tele-
scope" said DR.. Hale, "showed no
traces of geometrical network or mar
row canals described by Lowell. The
extremitics Of the D. Saebus Sinus and
the adjoining parts of the Schiaparelll
canals, Gighon and Hiddekel, were seen
to be broad and irregular, very unlike
their appearance in Lowell s drawings.
During the periods of best definition
they were resolved into minute twisted
and broken flaments not fluctuatlng in
position, but definite and unmistakable
in character. Another canal, though
not thus resolved, differed even more
materially from Lowell Is representa-
tions. 1t appeared as a short prolec-
ton of the Mars Cimmerlum of very
appreciable width and somewhat irreg-
ular outline.
"Tbe Mount Wilson results are in
harmony with those of Keller, Young,
Barnard, Campbell, Antoniadi and the
great majority of experienced OBJ
servers, who agree in considering the
appearance of the Martian canals to
be peri ectly natural, with no evidence
Of artificial structure.
