SHIP INVENTOR DENIES
HE MADE FALSE CLAIM
"Carolinian" Not First Welded
Boat, but First to Be Built
Entirely without Rivets.

BY the Associated Press.
CHARLESTON, S. c., March 13.-No
claim has ever been made that the
Carolinian, launched here Saturday, is
the first "self-propelled welded boat"
its builder and inventor said yesterday
when informed that Capt Andrew
Hudson of Elizabeth Port. N. j.. said
a boat of that type had been con-
structed previously.
It is believed, however, the builders
said. that the vessel is unique in that
there is not a rivet from stem to stern.
Everything is secured by an interlock-
ing system of welding, under which the
plates dovetail into notches.
A sea test last Sunday demonstrated
the success of the new method.

Appointing Judge Lands in
the beginning to settle their
disputes, when and If any
should occur, the m a ors
thought they were cementing
an harmonious future at least
for the seven-year term Of the
commissioner. BY so doing q
substantial confidence in Com
missioner Lands ability to
guide the Ship Of Baseball, was
inferred.
Now comes an issue which it
is not Judge Lands specific
duty to arbitrate. But in that
the minors, over whom Judge
lands has no control, were
willing to have him settle the
present differences, it seems
odd that the majors turned
down the proposition. In effect,
they were not willing to take
q chance on the break they
would get from the man in
whom they have heretofore
placed their trust.
Neither the sacrifice fly nor
the rabbit ball were changed at
the major meetings. It is be-
ginning to look as though the
policy will be to let well enough
alone and not attempt any rad
ical legislation at the moment.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE
Army and Navy today were In
new headquarters closer to the
point Of concentration-Yank
Gtadium-where tomorrow they
will meet in the thirty-first grid
game Of the service eleverls.
Major Sasse has established a
camp at Briar Cliff Lodge while
Bill Ingram has harbored the
Middies at the Commodore Hotel.
It's the day before the battle.
The mentors only have time for
q few last minute instructions
and the important task Of keep
ing the men in the proper frame
of mind. That's the big problem.
The Navy team that defeated
Penn last week Is greatly i'm.
proved machine and will be q
worthy opponent for the Army
engineers. The brand Of football
displayed In Philadelphia shows
that the line and bacidield were
co-ordinated almost perfectly on
Middle BacxfieId Alert
Penn was able to muster but
o single first down through the
Middies forward wall which re-
fleets credit on the defensive
line strength Of 1ngram's charges.
The Middle backfieId, al
ways on the alert, inter
cepted three Of Penn's passes
and this is certain indica~
tiOn Of heads.up football.
In other words the Navy stop
ped every possible method that
Penn had to advance the ball
which naturally led to q complete
routing of the Philadelphians.
The Penn and Army lines, how
ever, are two greatly different
combinations. The Army per.
eonnel holding. the forward po-
sition is composed Of veterans
of many conflicts but only Cap
tain Humber has seen action
against the Navy attack.
The other members OF the
team are "plebes" so far as the
Navy game is concerned and my
guess is that these men are more
nervous than ever. There Is q
lot Of tradition behind this bat
tie Of the nation and every. man
is enthusiastic over the possib1l-
fly of taking another Navy goat
cover. %..
Army Great on Defense
Army has shown great de-
fensive strength all season and
has probably had fewer touch
downs scored against them than
any other Army team. The for
ward wall will hold the Navy, and
without a passing attack well exc
cuted and planned for deception
the Navy will have little chance to
score. g.
Bullet Kirn2 will drive into
the Army wall with possibly
more punch than any OppO-
nent that has struck the Army
line all season.. His thrustS
will have to be stopped, but
the Army veterans have the
power to Obstruct Kirn's
drives.
The wing protection is Army's
strongest point. Messenger, Carl
mark, Malloy aer veterans,
while Burlingame and King have
played as veterans, though this is
their first season at the end posts.
Major Sasse, a natural cavalry.
man, gave these boys their start
when he was end coach under Biff
Jones. Flank movements are
cavalry pecialtieS, and with the
material on hand the Navy will
have to. rely on air or submarine
tactics to click the whole darn
