of the spectators were forced t.

bowler Of South Bend perched him

Pritchett. who has the reputation

OF his teammates by bowling 211 in
his first game. PAP i'm the second,
and falling to III in the final. The

chalked up. puts them in second

II was early in the present year that the
first government effort was made to pro
duce an unsinkable ocean freight ship. It
was decided to try out plans which had
been approved by the Naval Consulting
Board. and which had been submitted by
Mr.. William T Donnelly.
Mr. Donnellys scheme did not call for
speciaI construction, but was aimed to ft
freight ships OF all styles and models
which had been already built and were
plying the ocean. 1t was not an attempt
10 build new ships along any new line OF
construction. The Government picked out
a lOOOO-tOn steam freighter called the
Lucia for the experiment
This ship already had six watertight
bulkheads dividing her five cargo COM
partments, boiler room, engine room and
collision compartment in the forward part
of the ship. The scheme was to build an
enormous number of little watertight and

"The use OF pulverized coal on shore has
long passed the experimental stage and II
is admirably adapted to use on board ship.
It will save 90 per cent of the coal con
sumption. besides producing no smoke.
Means have already been developed and
perfected by which pulverized coal may he
piped from the cylinders to any portion OF
the ship by air pressure as freely and enec-
tually as oil is piped."
The Italian Government has adopted
design worked out by Naval Constructor
Umberto Pugliese, which differs radically
from the design of the French naval en-
gineer lie Parmentier, and from Mr..
Maxim's design.
The Pugliese unsuitable freighter has

ship. In this outer hull is carried the
coarser cargoes, like coal, ore, grain, salt,
etc. II the torpedo strikes and eXplodes

sci the force Of the explosion is taken up
without damage to the inner hull Of the
ship, which is protected by strong water

Describing this invention, the Scientific
American says:

the tamping effect Of the superposed water
would be cut down nearly two-thirds, and
the destructive gases would find a CORE
spondingly easier path Of dissipation up
ward instead of horizontally and inward
upon the body Of the ship
Engineer Pugliese counts upon the
character of the bulk cargo to absorb the
shock and to lower rapidly the tempera-
ture of the rending gases, and then by
suitable vents through the two decks above
to open further channels of escape. 1t
will be noticed that there is no double bot

Why did Mr.. Donnelly's scheme go wrong?
The war will have conferred at least one
blessing il ship builders learn to construct
ocean liners that will be reasonably ''un-
sinkable."
