Jellicoe Pays
Tribute to Sims

Sydney, Australia, June 4, CORES
pondence of The Associated Press).-
Recognition Of the service rendered
by Rear Admiral William S. Sims,
as commander Of the American Naval
forces in the war zone was accorded
by Lord Jellicoe in a speech he deliv-
cred at Adelaide on a visit there re-
Gently. He said:
"While we were developing often
sive measures against the submarine
we were also developing a defensive
or offensive system of conveying
ships. Admiral Sims, for whom I
have the highest regard, and whose
assistance was always valuable, looked
upon the convoy as an offensive sys.
tenn because if submarines could be
attracted to the convoy the destroyers
had an opportunity of dealing with
them. At first we had not sufficient

STEEL PROPELLER FOR
USE ON AIRPLANEs
Prof. Morgan Brooks Of Univer-
sity Of Illinois Develops
New Device.

Morgan Brooks, professor OF cleo.
trical engineering at the University Of
Illinois, has developed a practically
noiseless, h~igh-speed, steel airplane
propeller, intended for direct connec-
tion with the highest speed gasoline
engine, according to announcement at
Urbana, III.
A considerable loss of power is now
endured In the reduction speed gear
used in all but the smallest airplanes,
as airplane engines have a normal
speed greater than the two-blade
wooden propeller can stand.
This was of special interest to Brig.
Gen. L. r. o. Charlton, air attache
to the British embassy at Washington,
who saw the models tested at the
university recently.
"The laws of air dynamics are suf-
ficiently well known to make a test Of
a model almost conclusive as to the
results to be expected from a full
sized propeller" Professor Brooks
said. "At the same speed the thrust
or pull of a propeller varies with the
fourth power Of a dimension, there
fore the pull Of five pounds found on
test Of an 18.inch model indicates a
pull Of 80 pounds Of a propeller of
SO inches in diameter. The test was
made below standard speed, SO a nor
NAL thrust would be obtained for q
practice plane with only SO inches d.
amntor. aa c0ur0rp6 tO thof 2-fOOt
spread Of the planes used in Chanute
field, Rantoul, III"
The particular advantage Of a small
diameter. would be the lifting of the
landing wheels to a position much
nearer the center Of gravity axis,
thus making a poor landing much SAT-
er from avoidance of headers, not un-
common with the present type Of
planes, Professor Brooks said.

New Jersey star at 6-2. He ran or
games in quick order by swift and ac-
curately placed drives. lie closed 10

little time in earning his points.
The second was real battle from
start to fnish. Kynaston got the
range of the back and side lines soon
after play was begun in the second
set and kept his opponent busy recov-
ering shots that struck right on the
lines. But Throckmorton soon rallied
and smashed his way TO the mes. on
reaching which he had little difficulty

round before the semi-fnal Hunter

Martin. meanwhile, had solved his
opponents style and began TO rain
shots against the back-hand play OF
Hunter. Mixing this with hard drives
and accurate placements he bothered
his opponent considerably, but Hunter
always managed to break through to
score enough points to nose ous tho
victory at IL.

Hagen and Brady
Thrill Spectators
With Great Golf

NEW LONDON, Conn, July 6.-Sen-
sational golf marked the play of Wal-
ter Hagen, the open champion, and
Mike Brady, the runner-up, when they,
playing as team, defeated Alex Smith
and Gil Nichols, Of the Shenecossett
Links, here to-day by 3 and 2. Brady
carried most of the burden on his
own shoulders, and counting him 6
on the fifth hole, where he picked UP
after his partner had sure d, he would
have broken all records here. AS it
was scored, Mike was put down a 6,
one over par, which he could easily
have made, and this gave him a 81
going out.
He was back in 35 for 50. Mike
was surely king of the putting green
to-day as he sank many long ones
which enabled him to get nine out of
the eighteen holes in threes. Hagen
helped him on four holes, and the be st
ball of the homebreds figured 65.
Nichols was as steady as a clock,
with 72. which was the same that
the champion registered. Smith also
figured in the scoring, and helped
Nichols in several tight places. The

gallery followed the players, including
