 Nasi Praises His Ship
 Chief Electrician George Na5i. |. < N, who is spending a few days at the home Of Paul GIana of kcnsington, gave a very Interesting review on the merits Of the L. $. $. New Mexico while talking 10 the Herald representative today, Mir. Nasi spoke of the vessel in terms Of highest praise, which would indicate the pride that each enlisted man aboard feeds because Of his associ- atlon with the ship.
 Nasi has been aboard the New Mexico for moro than four years. The battleship is known among the fleet as the "wonder ship" This name was given at the time Of com missioning as it was the first of eight electrically driven ships that now sail the seas under inc Stars and Stripes The name has proved appropriate in more ways than one, for the ship has won the battle ef- ticiency for the past two years and is far ahead Of all others in this years contest. It is the only ship in the navy that has taken this coveted d honor for two successive years.
 The pennant is not easily won. as points are scored in all departments of naval activities. Ratings are made in engineering. gunncry, communi- cations. and various other naval re- quirements. MT. Nasi stated that thf ship had already taken the gunnery and communications prizes for this year and required only the engineer ing excellence to be assured of this years award.
