ASTRONOMY NOTES
 By OLAF HALVERSON

The planet Jupiter has 12 known satellites or moons, which is the greatest number attending a planet.
 Calico discovered the larger moons of Jupiter with a telescope magnifying 33 times which he had constructed himself. He first saw three of the moons on Jan. 2, 1610 and the fourth one on the 18th of Jan. These moons, which are sometimes called the Cali lean quartet, were the first heavenly bodies which had not been known from the earliest of time.
 Calico was very happy over his discovery and he sent draw ings and an account of his obser- vations to the Duke of Tuscany, in whose honor he named the group of moons.
 Calico set his telescope on the tower of St. Mark where the fol- lowers of the Copernican system hailed him with satisfaction. Here was a miniature sun and it's planets hung up in the heavens to demonstrate the truth of their new doctrine

Premier Bennett Invites Northern Territories To Join British Columbia

PRINCE RUPERT, B. C., R - Premier Bennett has extended open arms to parts of the vast Yukon and Northwest Territories to join British Columbia - if they're interested
 In speech here he issued an invitation to the two areas to join the Pacific province and backed it up with a promise to build a 600- mile railway to Whitehorse, the Yukon capital.
 The premier said the Pacific Great Eastern Railway is being extended to Fort St. John in the northeast corner of B.C. and it could be continued parallel to the Alaska Highway to Whitehorse if Yukoners agreed to the move.
 We don't want to gobble up the Yukon and the Northwest Ter ritories, but we feel that it would be to the advantage of us all to be together in the great expansion of the north," Bennett said.
 While Yukoners may be skep- tical of joining BIG. because of its five-per-cent sales tax, that same tax would give them free hospital and other social services, he added.
 Bennett is on what he calls a 'look-see" tour of northern B.C.

gram, the committee acts on
complaints made either to it or
to the Federal agency involved
in the contract.
EOS Complaints
The report said 205 COM
plants were received between
the organization of the COM
mittee in August, 1858, and last
June 80. Those disposed of
numbered 1919, and rs are still
pending. In the year ending
June 80 the complaints num-
bered So and an equal number
was disposed of.

lcolored women as telephone
operators. 1t said is of the
