AKRON, Ohio, July ia half
dozen huge gas bags will drift lazily
away from the Municipal Airport to-
morrow, carrying with them the as
pirations of six crews for the national
balloon championship and the honor
OF representing the United States in
this years international Gordon Ben
nett race.
Two of the bags will carry the khaki
OF the Army, one the blue of the
Navy and the remaining three the
colors Of civilian pilots. The latter
includes Frank Trotter and Roland
Blair of Akron, who raced for the
f1rst time last year and won.
The winner and the second place
balloon will complete the three United
States entries in the Gordon Bennett
race. The veteran, Ward T. Van Or
man of Akron, automatically assured
himself of one place last year when
he was victorious in the international
contest started at Cleveland.
The 10000 cubic feet balloons, filled
with natural gas, will start taking off
in 5-minute intervals at S pm, East
ern standard time, tomorrow. They
are expected to drive Northeastward
toward the st. Lawrence Valley-the
same course most entrants took In last
years international race Distance Is
the only factor in determining the win
ner, and each crew pits skill and en-
durance against the luck Of the
weather.
The Army No. entry will have the
favored position of taking on last
both from the standpoint of being able
to Judge how the other bags are af-
fected by the air currents and from q

sunlight which expands the gas and
causes its gradual loss.

Weakness of Stern Posts on

was a result of attempting to save too
much weight, he said. Jahncke came
here for the launching Of the Matson
liner MarimpoSa at Fore River.
The Marine engineering corpora

up by the shipyardS for cooperative
designing and purchasing for the con-
struction of these vessels, developed the
design prepared by the Navy Depart
ment and made working drawings,
Jahncke said The Navy Department
proved all plans.
All Castings Weak.
THE sternpoSt castings were pur-
chased by the private yards from the
same foundry. Castings Used in Navy
yard construction were made in one
case in its own foundry and. in the
other case, purchased from an outside
contractor Weaknesses have appeared In
the castings from all of the sources OF
supply.
effort was made for lightness in design
of these ships to keep within the treaty
limit of 10000 tons displacement. This
resulted in drawing the line too fine in
the design for the SternpoSts and, al
though all of tn contract built ships
but one successfully stood the rigorous
tests applied during the builders trials.

backing at full speed and putting the
helm hard over In each direction, stu,
subsequently, while in service weakness
appeared in all but one sternpoSt.
Navy to Share Expense.
1.-THE Navy Department will add some
weight to the castings and provide for
improved attachment to the hull and
make these changes as opportunity OF
fers. The expense for removal will be
borne by the Navy in the case OF the
cruisers built at the Navy yards and
the cruisers built at private yards where
the guarantee period has expired. In
the case of the cruisers built at private
yards where the guarantee has not eX-
pired, these yards have been called upon
to bear the cost of replacement
THE Navy Department does not wish
the impression to hold that there was
poor workmanship on the part of the
private shipyards which built some of
these ships The design of the castings
was not only fully approved. but the
material and workmanship was SUBJ
jected to rigid naval inspection through
out the manufacture at the foundry and
subsequently during the machining and
erecting operations at the builders
