The month was unusually cloudy and wet. On 12 nights with 58.7 hours observing, 41 plates were secured. The thirteen-year average shows 12 nights and 85.2 hours.

Approximately 93 persons visited the observatory during  the month.

Director J.S. Plaskett continued computations for the determination of the direction to the gravitational centre of the stellar system with a determination of the radial component  of the stream motion of the Southern stars., Usual correspondence and administration duties.

Assistant Director W.E. Harper observed on 4 nights securing 22 plates. Measured for radial velocity 40. Gave one seminar talk for which some more German articles had to be translated. Also gave 2 outside addresses.
