Southern California Telescope Lens

It is announced that the University of Southern California has concluded a contract with Alvan G. Clark, who made the Lick 36-inch telescope lens, for a 40-inch lens for the telescope, with which it is proposed to equip the observatory endowed by E. F. Spence, the Los Angeles banker. The observatory will probably be located on Wilson's Peak, a lofty height in Los Angeles County, near Pasadena.
