MOUNT WILSON OBSERVATORY
PASADENA, Cal. May 19.-George F.
! e, director OF the Carnegie observ'
atory. issued a statement tonight. in
which he said that the latest observa-
tions OF the astronomers did not indi-
cate that the earth had passed through
the tall OF Halley's comet, and that
his computations led him to believe
that this planet would miss contact
with the wanderers appendagc en-
tlrely
We saw the comet at IS this eve
ming. Pacific. time said DR.. Hale.
AT that time it was one degree above
the horizon. and had the appearance
Of a hazy nebular star. The color was
reddish. but that would not Indicate
ANYTHING, because II was 50 near the
horizon that surface dustS and fog
from the ocean would likely explain
the color
we looked carefully for the tail
and thought we saw faint indication
extending upward and away from the
sun. but We NAV have been mistaken
I am not positive We saw the tall
at all.
II do not know whether the earth
passed through the tail today or not.
I have seen no Indication OF II. OBJ
servations taken today and carefully
computed lead mc ia believe that we
are likely to miss the tail entirely
Certainly we Will miss it If we do not
pass through IL tomorrow.
