 Herman S. Hall. director of the state trade school, was called upon to introduce E. L. Bowman, state di- rector of vocational education, suc- ceeding F. J. Trinder.
 Mir. Bowman stated that the New Britain trade school was the first in Connecticut and the first genuine trade school in the United States. Pointing out George K. Macauley, former vice president of the New Britain Lumber Co.,. he said Mr. Macauley owned the first house built by trade school boys anywhere in the United States. Gus Boynton, director of the Meriden school, was on the teaching staff of the New Britain school and thereby was on the staff of the first trade school in the country, he added.
 He said the effort to secure liber- ty 15O years ago was through self government: for the past IS or 20 years it is through self-education. No longer do people expect teach- CTS to do the teaching. they now ex- pect students to do the learning: it is the teachers job to know how successfully to impart what knowl- edge he or she has.
 Out of the 1851 boys who have graduated from the New Britain school from 79 to 95 per cent are working at the trades they learned in school. the director explained.
 He emphasized the functions Of the state trade school as outlined in yesterdays Herald and said it was the function of the school to trata boys and girls into productive citi- zens.

by resignation within 10 days He is
Comdr. Eugene E. Wilson, aide on the

craft Co. Of Seattle, Wash.
Eminent Sportsman.
He is an eminent sportsman, and in
the last few years has represented the
United States In a number Of interna-
tional rife matches at home and abroad.
He has held his present post since Oc-
tober, 1927.
Born In Dayton, Wash, August 81,
1887, he was appointed to the Naval
Academy In 1904, graduating four years
later. In 1909 he was transferred to
the destroyer flotilla. Pacific feet, and
served there until 1918, when he was as
signed to the postgraduate engineering

DESIGN D|R|G|BLE
FOR PASSENGER Use
AH-MetaI Ship Will Accom-
modate so People, Besides
Mail and Express.

As Q result of the success Of the all
metal dirigible ZMC-2, which has passed
all Of its performance tests for the Navy,
the Detroit Aircraft Corporation now
Is designing for commercial uses q 100
ton metal-clad dirigible which win have
an estimated speed Of 100 miles per
hour.
Such a ship will provide sleeping
accommodations for so passengers, with
reserve lifting capacity for q good-sized
load OF mail and express, the designers
declare. 1t is claimed that the superior
strength of the metal-clad construction
will result in an airship capable Of
meeting the severeSt storms with safety
The proposed ship will be about $40
feet long and lis feet In diameter. It
will be equipped with engines giving q
total Of. 1900 horsepower. It Is de-
signed particularly for use over long
distances and will have q cruising range
of 1000 miles with full load, according
to the designers.
The 100-ton size was chosen, the de-
Signers say, because Il most readily lends
itself to economical operation over the
trade routes which promise immediate
financial return. It Is not believed that
larger sizes would be inpracticable at
the present time, but the hackers Of
the project regard any large rigid air
ship as an experiment and feel that q
ship Of conservative size would be better
policy until actual operating experience
Is available.
Experience with the zMC-2 so far
shows that the metal hull Is practically
gas-tight, even when subjected to
extreme variations In temperature
Total leakage, 1t is said, averages about
one-third that experienced with gold
beaten skin gas cells. There is practi-
cally no deterioration of the gas due to
back diffusion Of air It also Is believed
the metal covering will be much more
durable than fabric. Another pro-
nounced advantage is that there is no
tendency to soak up rain water, tncreas-
ing the weight.

Crashes Are Numerous.
Crashes also are numerous and this
is q decided detriment since the flyers
are making every effort for lengthy
duration of their flights. League ON
cials, we can safely say, are a bit
jealous of Louisville, KY, with its high
and spaciou airdrome for model craft.
Despite the thrill seeking of the
imaginary pilots 80 new boys qualified
at last weeks contest at the Mcfarland
Airdrome. One hundred would-be
model ship flyers reported at this con-
test and are at present building planes
and testing them for the contests to be
held throughout the Winter.
Herbert Dorsey, last years model
aircraft champion of the United States,
and John Sullivan, who was second
best in the Junior class of the country
for the current year, new their tiny
ships in this contest.
Handicapped by Lights.
Both flyers were handicapped by the
low ceiling. The planes crashed into
walls and chandeliers throughout the
entire meet. Dorsey was second in the
class for aces with the time of two
minutes and "a seconds. while Master
Sullivan was close third with a dura-
ton of 2 minutes and 1925 seconds.
