"Astronomers hnvc been looking for a planet exterior to Neptune for years," said Dr. Jlonroo B Snyder, of Central High School, "but there hns never been nny, definite result.

Dr. Eric Doolittle, professor of as tronomy at the University of Pennsyl vania said today that ho had not heard of the planet.
