 A bottle of champagne in the hand
 of Miss Helen LconOre Roberts. the 16-
 yenr-oId daughter of Governor Roberts
 of Tennessee, was smashed against the
 bow of the mightiest fighting craft in
 Uncle Sam's navy as she glided down
 the ways at the New York navy yard
 this morning into the waters of Wnn-
 about bay. Thus was she officially named by one who bitterly hates in- toxicants.. Hut she bowed to tradition and used wine instead of water. The last word in naval construction, the esuperdreadnaught was launched in the presence of 50.000 persons who were thrilled at sight of the great fighting monster as, she gracefully took to the water. The very moment she started down the ways Miss Roberts crashed the champagne bottle against the bow. And then a deafening roar went up from 50,OO0 throats, chorused by the footing of whistles from every vessel in the navy yard and the flotilla of eauy decorated craft that stood off in the East River
 MOST POWERFUL WARSHIP It was a memorable christening, the baptismal of the Tennessee. and one that exceeded in every conceivable re- spect all previous launchings of Uncle Sam's fighting machines. And naturally it should have been, In view of the fact that this monster of the sea is the most powerful, the largest and the deadliest that the ingenuity of American naval officers could make possible. There was a distinguished array or guests among the vast throngs that surged into the navy yard early today to witness the launching. Of course Governor Roberts and the notables who came on from Tennessee with him were 1 the special guests of honor, as 1t should ] be when the navy department chose to name the superdreadnaugh after the | southern state.
 l Prominent army and navy officers. statesmen, diplomats, jurists. bankers and men high up in all walks of life rubbed elbows with the grimy navy {, yard workers who laid off from their ! toll while the death dealing machine slid down the ways into the oily wa- ters of Wallabout bay.
 A GREAT SPECTACLE It was an inspiring spectacle as the war ship took her first dip. Miss Rob erts and her i3 maids of honor, all voted the prettiest girls from the state { of Tennessee, stood up near the bow, and at the word the southern governors daughter gave the ship her name. 1 Tennessee being bone dry state, Governor Roberts was under the inn pression that the dreadnaught should I be christened without. the use of cham l pagne, but the navy department ad- hered to its old tradition despite the fact that the governor Is . prohibition | ist. ..f
