SUPERNOVA 1953L IN UGC 3267
     Jean Mueller reports her discovery of an apparent supernova on
photographs taken by G. Abell on 1953 Oct. 14 in the course of the
Palomar Sky Survey.  SN 1953L in UGC 3267 (R.A. = 5h10m.0, Decl. =
+71 25', equinox 1950.0) is quite evident on both the red and blue
prints at mag about 15, being located 4" west and 7" north of the
galaxy's nucleus.  There is no object at this position on a blue
plate taken 1991 Dec. 7 by Mueller and J. D. Mendenhall in the
course of the second Palomar Sky Survey.
