PERIODIC COMET HARRINGTON (1994g)
     This comet has been recovered by J. Scotti with the Spacewatch
telescope at Kitt Peak in strong moonlight, the comet images being
diffuse and showing a 10" coma.  The following positions indicate
a correction of Delta(T) = -0.02 day to the prediction on MPC 18258
(ephemeris on MPC 23251):

SUPERNOVA 1994M IN NGC 4493
     P. Wild, Astronomical Institute, University of Berne, reports
his discovery at Zimmerwald on Apr. 29.9 UT (confirmed on May 2.9)
of a supernova (V about 16) located at R.A. = 12h28m35s.1, Decl. =
+0o52'54" (equinox 1950.0), which is 3" east and 28" south of the
nucleus of NGC 4493.
