Astronomers Unable
To Decide Definitely
About Life on Mars
BY ths Assoeio.ed Press

MCDONALD OBSERVATORY.
FORT DAVIS, Tex, Feb. 1s.-The
green spots on Mars may be some
lower form of plant life.
But they are not plants like the
earth's trees and grass.
Astronomers at Mcdonald Observ-
atory last night failed to give fiat
answer to the question of whether
there is life on Mars, but DR..
Gerard P. Kuiper, director of the
observatory, listed several known
factors for and against the possibil-
ity.
For:
/. There Is some water.
2. The temperatures are not too
cold. -.
Against:
So far, it appears the deadly ultra
violet rays of the sun would kill any
form of plant growth.
Hopes for Dcnnlte Data.
He said he hoped by March l he
could be more definite on some
phases of the immediate study
which started in October and which
is now one-half complete.
The observations have been aided
by Use of new infra-red spectre
meter which was not available until
the end of the war.
The conclusion that the green
spots are neither seed plants nor
ferns-the two highest forms OF
plant life-was reached by compar-
ing infra-red photographs of such
earth plants with those. OF the ver-
dant areas of Mars, DR.. Kulper
explained.
The discovery made this week at
Mcdonald that there is practically
no sulphur dioxide in the atmos-
phere of Mars was listed as a factor
against the possibility of plant life.
No Ozone or Sulphur Dioxide.
DR.. Kuiper explained that the
deadly ultra violet rays of the sun
are filtered out on the earth by
ozone. But Mars has no ozone
Sulphur dioxide could act as a
similar filter but Mars has none.
"It would have been nice II we
had found it but we didn't" he said.
Infra-red studies of the polar caps
on Mars indicate thus far that they
are water and not dry ice. DR..
Kuiper emphasized that was con-
ditional statement.
THE matter is important because
some quantity of water must be pres
ent to permit plant growth" DR..
Kuiper said.
Another factor favoring primi-
tive form of plant life on Mars Is
the knowledge that temperatures.
while desperately cold" are not
prohibitive to such life.

County Health
Department News

A check of eating establishments
in the County made recently by the
Sanitation Division of the Health
Department indicates carelessness
among proprietors and workers
about having their foodhandlers
cards available for inspection. The
Health Department issues cards
certifying workers who have taken
foodhandlers courses and had their
chest x-rays, in compliance with
the County Regulations. These
cards should be available for in
spection by officials of the Health
Department at any time. Inability
to prove in this way that they are
eligible to serve in eating estab-
lishments may result seriously for
both workers and proprietors, the
Department warns. 1t will pay
workers to carry their cards with
them.
