The big telescope Will make
snapshots of the universe as far
away as a billion light years, twice
the distance that any previous tele-
scope has been able to pierce.
Photographs will be clear, not the
dull and blurry longtime exposures
customarily seer in observatories.
Probe Secret of Mars
Photographs may reveal whether
the canals and dark splotches on
Mars mean that life exists on that
distant planet.
Many scientists claim that Mars
is populated. Many others fatty
condemn the theory. The "big eye"
is expected to answer the problem.
Scientists know that the sun is
subject to violent commissions that
may presage its disintegration aid
death. Science wants to know
whether the end of the sun will
mean that the earth will be burned
to a crisp or frozen solidly. The
big telescope may determine this.
The Palomar photographs also
will enable scientists to analyZe
chemicals on the stars and planets,
and to show whether Venus cloudy
atmosphere contains life-giving oxy-
gen or deadly carbon dioXide.

Ordinary Obstacles
Strange Course to Teach
Veterans Mastery of
Everyday Living

MEMPHIS, TENN.-One of the
strangest obstacle courses ever de-
vised is bringing independence tc
disabled war veterans at the vast
Kennedy general hospital here.
These men ran courses of another
sort during the days of their basic
training. They swarmed up ropes,
vaulted walls, leapt over embank-
ments, and crawled through tortu-
GUS barbed-wire tunnels.
1t is primarily for paraplegics-
men who are paralyzed in the lower
halves of their bodies.
In a building appropriately named
Independence hail." these men
sweat out mastery over the OBJ
stacles of everyday living-the little
problems once met without con-
scious thought, but now grown
monumental:
Crossing a street before the traffic
light changes.
Negotiating sand or gravel.
Opening doors and climbing steps.
Finding a seat in a movie.
Final Rehabilitation Step
independence hall is the post
graduate course for the man who
has learned at last to get in and out
of bed unaided, to put on his shoes
and socks, to walk on braces and
crutches. It's one of five divisions
of corrective therapy in Kennedy's
physical medicine rehabilitation
service, headed by DR.. Florence L.
Mahoney.
Within its walls are full-scale
model doorstoops and bus steps
strips of walking space surfaced
with sand, with gravel, with highly
polished wax-revolving and swing
ing doors, combinations of wooden
and screened doors.
Because some of the men have
disabled hands, there is a different
type of knob or handle on almost
every door.
The crutch-bound patient ascends
and descends .stairways and ramps
in independence hall. He practices
entering and leaving an automobile
body which has been placed on a
platform outside one door. He works
his way between row. of seats
spaced like those in a movie, or
snags a stool at a soda fountain.
H races a traffic light GRO a
c~urb-to-curb space the width of an
average street.
Learn Room Hazards
There is a typical three-room
apartment in Independence hall,
equipped with the low overstuffed
chairs, thick rugs and other fur
nishings with which he must cope
ir everyday life. Elsewhere there
ar full-length mirrors as a constant
reminder for him to practice keep
ing his head up and his eyes off
his legs.
And there are numerous exercls-
ing devices for developing the
muscles of arms and torso to carry
the full burden of the body.
There are, too, lessons in swim
ming and driving a car.
But for some of the men, even
this course Of study isn't enough.
At least two of them already are
their own pl lanes. One is
working or a commercial pilots
license.

Secrets of Skies

MT. PALOMAR, CALF. - De
scribed as the worlds largest anc
most costly scientific instrument
the Sc, 500, 900 Mt. Paiomar observ
atory telescope will begin scanning
the skies this spring.
The 20O-inch mirror and telescope
comprising the "cosmic eye" is eX-
pected to-: Peer one billion light
years out into space; determine
whether life exists on Mars; per-
haps set a time and date for
disintegration of the sun; settle
whether there is an end to the uni
verse or whether it is without be-
ginning or end, and study atoms in
the great heat of the stars.
The public won't get a chance to
e the huge telescope until some
time this summer.
The 5,00O-ton piece of equipment
is so delicate that the number of
workmen and scientists who are
putting finishing details to it is linn
tied. Otherwise an excess of body
heat might disturb the temperature
inside the observatory.
Dome Opens 80 Feet
The 1615-ton, 200-inch glass mir
ror, moved from the California In
stitute of Technology to the Palomar
observatory last November, now is
in place in the 5,000-ton telescope
mounting.
The one-million-pound dome opens
to the width of 80 feet. It will be
through this crack that the 'eye"
will peer at the cosmos.
