Max Adler of Chicago, former vice-president of Sears Roebuck & Co., sailed Saturday on the S. S. Homeric for Europe.

The purpose of Mr Adler’s trip to Europe is to make a study in connection with his plan to construct in Chicago a planetarium for which he donated the amount of $500,000.

The construction of the planetarium will begin January 1, 1929. According to the design the planetarium will show the positions of more than 4,500 planets and stars in the sky.

Mr. Adler was accompanied by Mrs. Adler and the German architect Frnest A. Gruensfeld, Jr.
