Several astronomers were relaxing after a hard day at the I.A.U. when the talk got around to their research activities. One said, “There is a red star found in the Lowell proper-motion survey that seems rather interesting – it is G232-75, which has a proper motion of almost a second of arc per year. Since Giclas1 catalogue doesn’t give any spectral type I’m planning to go to Kitt Peak to observe it. The trip only costs about 300 dollars, and besides it’s fun to visit Arizona.”
