U. s. CavaIryman Gets Patent on Drigible He Built

Fl Paso, Tex, (UP).-The sav- ings that he collected from his sal ary of from $21 to $45 a months to buy tools and materials for the construction of a new dirigible air ship model may give return of thousands of dollars to George Deuring, 25, Fort Bliss soldier. Deuring, a horseshoer of troop F, Seventh cavalry, has been granted a patent on his dirigible. Soon aft CT the patent was granted he re- ceived tentative offers by interest ed parties.
 The story of how Deuring saved his money from his meager army salary is one of self-denial and a determination to achieve success. Hammering away at his forge, for which tor which work he received as low as $21 a month and never more than $45. Deuring laid aside his pay except just enough to pro-

 With this money he purchased tools and materials for his model. whcih he conceived six years ago when German school boy. He came to the United States from Germany only four years ago.
 The invention embodies a pair of elongated cylindrical bodies, ar- ranged parallel with each other, each body being adapted to receive "a lighter than air gas. Arranged be- tween these cylindrical containers is an elongated cabin structure which cooperates with them in in- creasing the lifting and carrying capacity.
 The craft resembles two airships with the cabin between. The air. ship is designed to materially in- crease the lifting and carrying capacity of this type of aircraft.

TOY TALK TO
 BE HEARD SUNDAY
International Broadcast Coming From Nurem-
 berg, Germany

Herr Luppe, mayor of Nurem- berg will be the speaker in the in- ternational broadcast scheduled for 12:30 p. m, EST. Sunday, Decem- Der 20. through the WABC-Colum- bia network, describing the toy in- dustry for which his city is cele- brated, under the title Christmas Made in Germany"
 Largely owing to it's pre-emin- ence in the manufacture of toys, Nuremberg is the most important commercial city in Bavaria. For hundreds of years it has been re- markable for it's arts and crafts, and the inventiveness displayed by its inhabitants. Its place in the history of pictorial art has been se- cured by Durer, and Wagner com- memorated it's musical organiza- fions in "The Mastersingers of Nuremberg"
 Watches, air-guns, and gun locks were invented by Nuremberg craftsmen. and in recent years 1t has become known all over the world through it's manufacture of toy novelties of highly ingenious construction. During the war the city's supremacy in this field suf- fered a severe setback. but since then it's toys again have penetrated the markets of the world. and for children in every continent Christ mas is, in part, Made in Ger many" During Mayor Luppe's broadcast, sound effects will be provided by the more vocal toys produced for this years stockings.
