BIGGEST OYSTER SET
 IN SEVEN YEARS ON
 CONNECTICUT COAST

New Haven, Aug. s.-Repoxts from all along the Sound shore where oys- ter beds exist indicate that the biggest oyster ''set'' in seven years will be found this fall. A number of oyster men who have examined the shells planted on the beds say that in some cases the ''set'' appears to be un- usually heaYy. William A. Byxbee. an oysternlen of NorwaIk, yesterday found a shell on the natural beds off that place, which was literally cov- cred with the clfnging oyster ..set.''
 The news of a good ''set'' comes as a boon to oyster dealers of Connecticut who after seven lean years had begun to despair. The entire industry seemed at one time to be doomed. Extensive Investigations by government experts and others had failed to locate the cause of the failure of the oyster spawn to cling to the planted shells. A good "set'' this year will mean an extensive revival of oyster culture in local waters and will mean thousands of dollars in profits to oyster dealers who have continued along the Con- necticut coast.

Submarines Are Coming Thing In
 Naval Warfare

Lieutenant John c. Redman, for the past two years assistant to the In- spector of Machinery, U. S. N, at the works of the Lake Torpedo Boat com pany has successfully passed the tests which he has been taking for the past dcer of Submarine S-4S as the result of the examination.
 Lieutenant Redman enlisted in the navy when a youngSter and because of his ability as an electrical expert has been able to pass examinations for higher positions; he has been an ensign for quite some time and his latest appointment comes as the re- suit of continued application to the duties with which he has been con cerned at the submarine yards.
 Lieutenant-Comma Morris b. Gilmore with Lieutenants S. B. Bray and John H. Forshew composed the examining board during the past week The examination was held in the offices of the Inspector of Machin- cry, U. s. N., at the Lake works.
 Submarine S-49 left this afternoon for New London, where after taking aboard a fuel supply she will be head ed for the Naval War College at New port. At Newport the vessel will be examined by the admirals and other high officers stationed at the college and from the first-hand information which they will be able to obtain, the war plans for the submarines will be outlined.
 submarines are the coming thing in naval warfare and the S-49 in New port will give the naval officials an opportunity to make their plans from performances of the very latest thing in American submarines-Subma B49," Lieutenant-Command Gill more declared.
 The $50 is expected back the 10th of the month for some minor altera- tions.
 Two more weeks will be required to complete the work now going on aboard the S-51 at the yards.
 The S-4s will leave the yards to- morrow for Block Island Sound where she will be subjected to diving test to a depth of more than 200 feet.
