(4759) Aretta = 1978 VG10
Discovered 1978 Nov. 7 by E. F. Helin and S. J. Bus at Palomar.Aretta is the name of a school situated in the Norwegian town of Lillehammer.
This school was one of three winners of the Best School Teaching of Astronomycompetition held during the 2009 Year of Astronomy in Norway.
(4858) Vorobjov = 1985 UADiscovered 1985 Oct. 23 by J. Gibson at Palomar.Amateur astronomer Tomas Vorobjov (b. 1984) is an assiduous observer of minor
planets and a participant in the International Astronomical Search Collaboration. Hehas been responsible for verifying student asteroid discoveries and taking follow-upimages to complete the discovery process. Name suggested by S. Foglia.
(4984) Patrickmiller = 1978 VU10
Discovered 1978 Nov. 7 by E. F. Helin and S. J. Bus at Palomar.Patrick J. Miller (b. 1949), professor of mathematics at Hardin-Simmons Uni-
versity in Abilene, TX, is the founder and director of the International AstronomicalSearch Collaboration, an educational outreach program for high schools and colleges,provided at no cost to the participating schools. Name suggested by S. Foglia.
(5019) Erfjord = 1979 MS6
Discovered 1979 June 25 by E. F. Helin and S. J. Bus at Siding Spring.Erfjord is the name of a small school in a small village of the same name in
western Norway. This school was one of three winners of the Best School Teachingof Astronomy competition held during the 2009 Year of Astronomy in Norway.

detailed geological research, he has clarified the stratigraphy and geological structureof the Paleozoic-Mesozoic group of southwest Japan. In addition, he has tutoredmany excellent earth science experts and teachers.
(10017) Jaotsungi = 1978 UP2
Discovered 1978 Oct. 30 by the Purple Mountain Observatory at Nanking.Jao Tsung-i, alias Xuantang (b. 1917), is a world renowned sinologist, painter
