Space calls recordei

on new computer *—
United Press International
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — If
and when E.T. phones Earth,
scientists will be ready with a
new computer to select the call
from millions of other radio
waves and store the message un
til humans can decode it.
Pulitzer Prize-winning astro
nomer Carl Sagan and a select
group of scientists gathered
Monday at Harvard’s Oak Ridge
Observatory in Harvard, Mass.,
to turn on the computer’s pow
er, beginning the Search for Ex
tra-Terrestrial Intelligence pro
ject, called SETI.
“This represents the begin
ning of the first serious, long
term, dedicated search for ex
tra-terrestrial intelligence in hu
man history,” Sagan, of Cornell
University, said Sunday.
A radio telescope will search
the northern skies round-the-
clock, 365 days a year for any
sign that other civilizations are
trying to say hello.
An 85-foot-diameter dish will
receive the millions of radio
waves that constitute galactic
noise. The waves will be ampli
fied, converted, analyzed and
finally stored on tape by a com
puter programmed to select out
“magic waves.”

Harvard physicist Paul Horo
witz, who designed and built the
receiver that originally was suit
case-size but now occupies half a
room at the observatory, said
there are magic radio frequen
cies that scientists theorize
would be known to other civili
zations because the laws of na
ture are the same everywhere.
Sagan said alien civilizations
might use those radio waves to
send announcements of their
existence to other civilizations.
Horowitz said there is reason
to believe intelligent civilizations
exist elsewhere.
“If there are such civiliza

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The
Greater Kansas City Hispanic
Coalition for Civil Rights is plan
ning a public protest over the
court-awarded custody of a His
panic Roman Catholic orphan to
a Mormon couple instead of
his Spanish-speaking grand
mother.
Felecitas Moreno was denied
custody Jan. 13 by the Missouri
Court of Appeals of her grand
son Joshua Lee Henson. The
child’s parents were killed in the
skywalk collapse at the Hyatt Re
gency Hotel. James and Barbara
Jones of Independence, who
have cared for the boy since his
parents’ deaths, retain custody.
A motion to rehear the case
on behalf of Mrs. Moreno was
filed Jan. 19 but Friday the mo
tion was denied.
