     - - - - -
      E G 5 0
     - - - - -

  Transformation from B1950.0 'FK4' equatorial coordinates to
  IAU 1958 galactic coordinates (double precision)

  Given:
     DR,DD       dp       B1950.0 'FK4' RA,Dec

  Returned:
     DL,DB       dp       galactic longitude and latitude L2,B2

  (all arguments are radians)

  Called:
     slDS2C, slDMXV, slDC2S, slSUET, slDA2P, slDA1P

  Note:
     The equatorial coordinates are B1950.0 'FK4'.  Use the
     routine slEQGA if conversion from J2000.0 coordinates
     is required.
