Dr. Hubble said the proposed 200-inch telescope would reveal some four to six times as many distant island universes as the present instrument, and unveil the secret of variations in their lum- inosity., He estimates some 30,000,000 | island universes are in the present ob- servable reglon FOR CLEANING UP CITY| District Commissioners Distribute | Prizes Given Annually by Club.
