The Milky Way globular cluster system serves as a reference for the study of more distant galaxies. Here I stress that there are still things we do not know about the globular cluster system of our own galaxy: their total number, their spatial motions and distances, and their IR properties. If our best reference point is not fully known, caution should be exercised when interpreting observations of distant systems. At the same time, when studying distant ellipticals it is not always advisable to rely on the Milky Way as a comparison. For example, only recently the first full calibration of the luminosity function of the globular cluster system of an elliptical galaxy was made, necessary to compare apples with apples.

Objective-prism spectral surveys open the possibility to search for faint emission-line objects with the aim to complete their statistics and to pick out most interesting individual objects for further study. In the years 1964 - 1970 the Hamburg Hα Spectral Survey of the Northern Milky Way was accomplished using the Schmidt camera (80/120 cm, f= 240 cm) in Bergedorf with the following parameters: area 1 32° - 214°, -10°<b<+10°, 160 fields. Kodak 103aE + RG1, exp. 60min, widen. 10", 4° prism (580 Å/mm at Hγ ). As a main result the list of about 140 faint objects classified as planetary nebulae or possible planetary nebulae (Kohoutek,1965, 1969a,1972), and the identification of about 1500 new stars having Hα in emission (Kohoutek, Wehmeyer, in preparation) can be reported. The best known examples of this survey are K 3-50, a prototype of a compact H II region, and the symbiotic variable HBV 475 = V 1329 Cyg (Kohoutek, 1969b), which is also classified as a protoplanetary nebula.
