SUPERNOVAE 2010ew AND 2010fx
     G. H. Marion, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA), on
behalf of the CfA Supernova Group, reports on spectroscopic observations that
were obtained of 2010ew and 2010fx by M. Calkins on July 7 UT with the F. L.
Whipple Observatory 1.5-m telescope (+ FAST; range 360-760 nm).
Classifications were made by cross-correlation with a library of supernova
spectra using the "Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry
2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024).  SN 2010ew (cf. CBET 2345) is a normal type-Ia
supernova about five days after maximum brightness, and 2010fx (cf. CBET 2352)
is a type-IIP supernova several days post maximum.
