AMATEUR POSITIVE
 MARS IS INHABITED
Michigan Enthusiast Awaits
 1945 for Observations

Escanaba, Mich, Sept. (UP) He spends his days selling jewelry in his modest shop but at night John B. Novack roams the heavens with the aid of his tele- scope and dreams of the August in 1945 when he will be able to view Mars at close range.
 For 35 years this owner of the only private astronomical observa- tory in Michigan has scanned the heavens, ground lenses for observa- tories all over America and avidly pursued his hobby in every spare moment. Many renowned astron- omers are his personal friends and by reason of his degree from the University of Chicago he is en- titled to be called professor; yet with anyone who is interested. es- pecially Mars, which he is confident Is inhabited.
 Novack's interest in the heavens dates back some 40 years when he was penniless little orphan in Chicago who, spent hours lying in a field, a pair of borrowed opera glasses glued to his eyes, watch ing the stars move through space.
 He visited the University of Chicago frequently, asking hun dreds of questions of professors of astronomy, until the acute in terest he displayed in the subject lar h ro,a alo if nncCih1h for him to obtain a scientific edu cation in the school.
 Every time I got chance would look through the telescope" :" Novack recalled. Many "a night I spent in the university's observa- tory when other young fellows were out dancing and having a good time" Even today he makes frequent visits to the famous Yerkes observatory at Williams Bay, Wis.
 His greatest ambition is to live until 1945, \when he will be 70 years old, at which time Mars will come within 35,oO0.O0O miles of the earth on it's 17-year orbit.
 UT course It 1nldDlLeQ, ne said, speaking of his favorite planet Through the telescope it has a reddish tinge like desert. The network of lines across the face of the planet believed to be canals, are so precisely laid they are obviously the work of living. highly intelligent creatures.
 The Martians have a dismal fu- ture, however, for their planet is slowly dying. Some day we will be in the same fix when our sun expires. But there is no need for us to worry. Our lifetime does not record a second with the clock of the heavens"
 The little round cupola atop Novack's home with windows in the roof houses his 12-inch equato- rial telescope and other astronomi- cal machinery which cost nearly S25,0 ,000-amply attesting his devo- tion to astronomy which led him so save this much from his modest earnings as a jeweler. He is mar tied and has four children.
