COMET MUELLER (1993p)
     Jean Mueller reports her discovery of a comet on a plate taken
by J. D. Mendenhall and herself with the 1.2-m Oschin Schmidt
Telescope in the course of the second Palomar Sky Survey.  The object
has a condensed nuclear region and a tail fanned to the west-northwest.
A confirming film was taken by E. and C. Shoemaker and D.
Levy with the 0.46-m Palomar Schmidt telescope on Aug. 17.  The
following measurements are by Mueller:
