ASTRONOMY NOTES
By OLAF HALVORSON
The Lick Observatory on the
summit of Mount Hamilton, 19
miles from San Jose, Calif., has a
small observatory community of
about 80 persons. Springs a few
hundred feet below the summit
provide an adequate water sup
ply. A post office, an elementary
school and a library serve the
residents.
The Lick Observatory bears the
name of the man who had the
vision and wealth to make it a
reality. James Lick was a native
of Pennsylvania, where he pur
sued his trade in building organs
and pianos. In 1847 he came to
San Francisco and invested his
money in real estate during the
gold rush days of California.
Lick was an eccentric, and de
spite his wealth he lived in ap
parent poverty. When he was
nearing 80 years he placed his
$3,000,000 estate in the hands of
a Board of Trustees, to be ex
pended for various public bene
factions. One of these was to be
the Lick Observatory which was
to contain the most powerful tele
scope in the world.

* OSLO, Norway Uf)—King Haak- j
on VII of Norway, an old sailor j
who rode out the storms of Nazi,
invasion to rein for more than |
half a century, died early Satur
day in the royal palace. He was
85 and the world’s oldest reigning
monarch.
The King had been growing
weaker in his fight against a cir
culatory ailment. A medical bul
letin said the King, who had been
receiving intravenous • feeding be
cause of a throat catarrh condi
tion, slept soundly until a few
minutes before his death.
Crown PTince Olav, 54, regent
of the realm since his father
broke a thigh bone in a fall in
1955, immediately became the
new King—Olav V.
There will be no coronation.
Norway’s constitution provided
Haakon was to be the last king
formally crowned in coronation
ceremonies in Norway.
Haakon, born near Copenhagen
Aug. 3, 1872, was the son of King
Frederick VIII and Queen Louise
of Denmark. As Prince Carl, he
was a 24-year-old Danish naval
officer when Norway invited him
to become its first monarch.
Altho he had never aspired to
be a king, he agreed to accept |
if the Norwegians voted for a
monarchy. In the 1906 referen
dum 259,563 voters favored a
monarchy and 69,264 opposed it.
Respectful of the democratic
constitution, Haakon moved qui
etly in the background. He pro
vided unobtrusive leadership at
Cabinet sessions and handled his
ceremonial duties with courtliness j
and dignity.
