To Study Sparta Meteor.

     An Iowa authority on meteors, Prof. Charles Wylie of the University of 
Iowa, plans to make an extensive investigation of a meteor which fell near 
Sparta, Ill., July 13.  Professor Wylie is now in Illinois attempting to 
trace the path of the meteor and collect all the fragments possible.  The 
largest piece recovered so far weighs 15 pounds.

website), is available upon e-mail request.

The NPA in the subject line, stands for Newspaper Article. The old list 
server allowed us a search feature the current does not, so I guess this is 
more for quick reference and shortening the subject line now.
