Description
Astronomy graduate student Nicholas Mayall writes to EPH, listing changes made to his thesis, and the advice of the thesis committee to print it without reference to EPH's letter. He asks EPH to check over the proof sheets to make sure that he did not make mistakes in determining the distribution equations during the rewrite. He also notes progress on added equipment for the Crossley telescope, including designs for a spectrograph.
