Dear Dr. Velikovsky:

In reply to your letter of February 23 I am writing to say that there is no established difference in the length of the equatorial and polar diameters of the sun. Some observers have reported a small difference but I believe that no such difference has been firmly established.

Very sincerely yours,

Lyman Spitzer, Jr.
