Simmons, 6415 Morn-lngside drive, secretary. The retiring president Is Dean Wood, who held the post since 1949. Using slides and motion pictures, Dr. Shapley illustrated recent advances in astronomy and showed detailed views of galaxies, activity on the sun and meteors. What we have learned of meteors is a practical by-product of astronomy, Dr.

Shapley said. Our military men are intensely interested in what goes on in our upper atmosphere, where meteors flare into view. That is because it is the path that will be followed by guided missiles, and it is possible that we may someday wish to direct one to Moscow. Perhaps to deliver a boquet to the prima ballerina then popular. A view of the galaxy of which our solar system is a part was one of the slides.

In a corner of the picture was a dot representing the sun. Ladies and gentlemen of Phi Beta Kappa, Dr. Shapley said, this is our galaxy, and that little speck is our sun. You cant even see Earth. Let us remember, that we, the lords of creation, are rather peripheral, after all.
