Main-belt Asteroid discovered onOctober 4 ,1986 byE. Bowell at Flagstaff.Named in honor of Orville B. Karge (1919-1990), instructor of physics at
San Dieguito High School andTorrey Pines High School , near San Diego, California. Karge was known to be selflessly devoted to teaching and the development of opportunities for students to independently explore their interests beyond the classroom. His encouragement to enter science fairs, sponsorship of a long-lived rocketry and astronomy club, and an open-lab policy provided educational challenges and adventures for his physics students and many others.Citation prepared by J. Bytof at the request of the discoverer.
