The scaling law of Peebles (1973) is extended and applied (with an automatic plate-scanning system and the faint-star/galaxy classifier and computer system described by Sebok, 1980) to determine the angular correlation function of apparent-magnitude-selected subcatalogs of galaxies from four red Palomar Schmidt-telescope plates of a 10-deg-sq area centered on alpha = 10 h, delta = 47 deg. The results are presented in tables and graphs and characterized in detail. The possibility of separating the effects of evolution from those of the spatial-correlation-function power-law slope is explored.
