Michelson Dies After Months of Sickness at Pasadena INTO COMA THURSDAY Paseadea, May 9 - (UP)-Dr. Albert Abraham McLennan, world's renowned scientist whose discoveries were ranked with those of Sir Isaac Newton at 1:20 p.m. today. Cerebral hemorrhage after a nervous breakdown brought down by working day and night on his life measuring caused Dr. McLennan's death. Doctor Michelle collapsed with a nervous breakdown a month ago, while at work on a measure scientific exercise in the grip of his theory on the speed of light.

Michelon last year,入院 a dousher, Mrs. Sheldon Dix, Provincetown, Mass. Doctor Miehelson, for many years head of the University of Chicago department of physics, was best known for his work to determine exactly the speed of light. He calculated its velocity with revolving mirrors, which shot beams 25 miles back and forth between Mount Wilson and Mount San Antonio. Desired Own Tests With this in view, he constructed a mitte-long vacuum tube on the living room table. He succeeded in taking more than half of his projected readings before he be- The distance factor in these tests was checked by the United States count geodetic survey, and although the phi-ray technique he desired before quitting his active scientific life to perform the experiment over distances which he permeated. Working far into the night, he checked and rechecked the speed of the light beam which raced upward. He was convinced of his own accuracy when he was forced to halt his work. It was this strenuous work that brought on him a break. Although Doctor Michelson did not live to complete his experiments, the associates he brought here from Chicago are continuing the work. cages are continuously the figures, when eventually announced, will stand as a monument to one of the oldest scientists of the age. From time to time during the last quarter century the man in the street has heard of Professor Michelson, but only once in that period. So when he came across the man in the street could call "practical". That was when he invented a range finder for big guns during the War II era and subsequently by the United States navy. Michelson was born in Strenuo, Poland, Dec. 19, 1852, and was brought to this country by his parents after he was just 17 of age when he was admitted to the naval academy at Annapolis after making a personal appeal to President Grant for the appeal. In one of the naval academy's laboratories he first measured the speed of light with greater accuracy than had ever been achieved. He was also responsible for his contributions to scientific knowledge. Years later his determination that light traveled 185,284 miles per second and started Einstein on his theory of relativity. Made Many Calculations **Make 'Million' Maps** He claimed that demonstrated many new facts about the heaven. He once proved that a certain star was in reality two stars millions of miles apart. In 1920 he measured that it was 300 times the diameter of the sun. This experiment proved modern theories of the size of heavenly bodies. By bringing to bear the testimony of idealized 1831 he established that the earth is as Professor Michelsen was the first American to win the Nobel prize in science. That was in 1907. In the same year he received the Copely medal of the Royal Society in London and in 1899 he was awarded the medal of the United Kingdom, Great Britain and Germany awarded him honorary degrees. Despite his high honors the professor lived much of his life quietly in the little French cottage with its ivory-covered windows and ancient plant buildings of the Chicago Hyde Park district. At 77 he was the equal of any of his faculty colleagues as a graduate student. He played a violin with exceptional skill and was a water color artist of merit. In addition to his widow, Professor Miles is survived by three married daughters.
