Naked eye may see comet on April 8 in 1930

San Jose reports Halley’s comet may be visible to the naked eye just before dawn on April 8 or shortly after. W. W. Campbell of Mount Hamilton’s Idek Observatory says the head and perhaps a bit of the tail could be seen. May 18 may bring earth between sun and comet, with tail highly attenuated.
