DIRIGIBLE'S MAST
 PROVES SUCCESS
New Mobile Device Aid in Cross
 Hangar Winds

Lakehurst, N. J., Oct. Il (P>-Thc nayy's new mobile mooring mast was being hailed as a distinct suc- cess today after it's first public dem- onstration in grounding the giant dirigible Los Angeles.
 Secretary Charles Francis Adams and other high officials of the navy who witnessed the demonstration were delighted with it's success. The mast is designed to facilitate the handling of the dirigible in cross hangar winds and to reduce the size of the ground crew necessary to handle the ship.
 The mast was constructed at the naval station here under the super vision of Lieut.. Commander Charles F. Rosendahl. It consists of a steel mast attached to triangular steel base which is mounted on three caterpillar wheels. After the ship is mOOred to the mast a tractor is attached to the base and the shin hauled into the hangar In launch- ing and landing the dirigible it had been found the ground crew could scarcely hold down the ship in a wind of more than 12 or 15 miles an hour.
 Secretary Adams, prior to the demonstration, made his first flight in the Los Angeles. He took the wheel for a few moments during the hour and half cruise over Barnegat Bay He remarked that piloting a dirigible was much like piloting Q yacht.

Sunday will mark the 34th anni- vcrsary Of the purchasing of the plot of land on which the edofces of the Sacred Heart parish are situated on Broad and Gold streets. When purchased, the plot was 14715 feet deep by 2G4 in width. Several years later additions were made to the plot which today is bounded by Gold, Broad and Orange streets.
 Previous to the purchasing of the plot the parish owned land on Grove street and Chestnut street, where many Of the members of the parish at that time thought the church should be erected. Rev. Lucyan Bojnowski, pastor of Sacred Heart church for 34 years. believed the land purchased at Broad and Gold streets was most suitable as it had n solid geological formation and was raised above the lOwlands.
