He’s looking for a planet in an orbit tucked between Mercury and the sun. What he started out to do, in 1966, was to photograph unmapped stars and comets, and to do this he had to take photos during solar eclipses. Courten thinks big, so he took his vacation and went to Brazil. He and his party shot the eclipse there in 1966, and when they had accounted for all the known stars in the neighborhood of the sun, ney still had some objects on their film that they couldn’t identify. These objects, they reasoned, might be comet fragments—or they might be something else. Further observations in Siberia and Mexico during the solar eclipses of 1968 and 1970 added new data. Courten and his party began to Hank Courfen think in terms of a planet.

( Get-together for coordinators About 80 plant coordinators for the Opportunity Development Depart ment got their chance recently to query top corporate officials on the state of the business’ and just about anything else that they were concerned about during a get-together at the Holiday Manor in Betlipage. Lew Evans said he enjoyed the event so much he suggested meeting every month or so. At last report, that meeting schedule was determined to be too frequent and every three-to-six months would be more appropriate. The approximately 80 coordinators in Long Island plants assist Oppor tunity Development by listening to problems or concerns of their co-workers that can’t be worked out at the supervisory level, and then directing them to appropriate areas in Personnel, etc. Present with ODD co-director Jean Esquerre and Bill Voorhest were Board Chairman Lew Evans, President Bill Zarkowsky, and Vice Presidents Tom Rozzi and Jack Rettaliata.
