BLIMP PATROL
COMMON SIGHT
AROUND WATERS
UNCLE SANS NAVY KEEPS
GUARD IN COASTAL WA
TIERS WITH DAILY SEIZED
ULED MANEUvERS
BY JOE MORTON
APP Feature Service Writer

LAKEHURST. N. J., Oct. 10
Each morning of the year, not
long after daybreak, early risers
in this New Jersey pineland. re-
gion glance automatically at the
skies, then at their watches, and
muse aloud: Time for the blimp
patrol.
Soon, two. sometimes three or
four, compact streamlined craft
nose out towards the Atlantic.
AT nightfaIl they return, each
with a log showing operations
over some 1000 square miles.
The blimps, tendons in the
powerful Navy air arm, have
been looking for submarines"
During the World War - Ger
many sent half a dozen U-boatS
to American coastal waters to
torpedo merchantmen, lay mines,
and otherwise harry shipping, in
hope part of the u. S. fleet would
be withdrawn from Europe. In
six months exactly 100 ships
were destroyed. among them the
cruiser US.S. San Diego.
In the present war the United
States, at peace, has her guard
up. Blimp crews, trained by in
tensive daily maneuvers, are
ready for action.
The blimp (non-rigid airship)
whether lowering motionless or
cruising at speed up to 65 knots
an hour, serves the Navy best at
reconnaissance. Its crew has time
to search infinitely for the oil
SmearS rising inevitably behind
U-boat several weeks from its
base, and to watch for the tell
tale white wake of submarine.
UnGer certain conditions the sub
merged craft itself may be spot
ted-some have been sighted 80
feet down.
For the present-day patrol,
whales and Sharks-far smaller
than submarines-afford COM
mon practice targets. Miniature
depth bombs may be dropped for
practice; full-size depth bombs
lie ready in the racks.
The gas-filled craft sauntering
from Lakehurst's Naval Air Sta
ton today scout northward and
southwark along the coast, each
assigned to part of an ''inShore"
belt. This generally is the stretch
of water lying within the 100
fathom curve, the area where
coastal shipping is concentrated
and where submarines might be
expected to lurk.
It was with the intention of
making this ''inshore belt" secure
that Congress authorized con-
struetion of 48 lghter-than-air
craft for patrol purposes. Five of
these are being delivered to
Lakehurst at the rate of one
month; funds for q others have
been allocated. Actually on pa
troll duty are four ships, the rest
are being used in greatly-ex-
banded training operations.
The Nays program for max
ing secure all vulnerable coast
al waters also requires construc-
ton of three air stations to sup
plement the base here. These are
at South Weymouth, Mass, Eliza
beth City, N. C., and Sunnyvale,
Calf. Further extending opera
tons is a new expeditionary-type
mooring mast, telescope and car
ried by truck, which has been
tested satisfactorily in winds of
near-hurricane force.

 "The lectures are not controver- siai. They are c statement of the claims of the Catholic Church.

Bachelor Girl Number One" For, unlike some film favorites, and con- trary to what has been justly or unjustly called "movie-star morals" Rosalind has definite convictions about marriage. Just as she puts her best into every venture of her mo- tion-picture career, even when scripts have sometimes been ufl- worthy of her talent, so, too, she is likely to be the kind of person who would not marry without putting every resource of her ability into that sacred and serious state of life. And make no mistake about it.. When marriage comes to Rosalind Russell 1t will mean just that.
 The ideals of the popular screen actress have not been too much dis- cussed in the multitude of publicity stories meant to describe her true personality. Perhaps 1t Is because ideals relate to religion, and Holly wood publicity agents see little glamor-appeal in the fact of any persons religion. Nevertheless, much of her charm, boise, cultivation, not to mention ideals, Miss Russell at- tributes to her training at Notre Dame Academy in her home town, Waterbury, Connecticut. There, under the tutelage of the Sisters of the Congregation of Notre Dame of Montreal, Rosalind acquired by far the greater part of the 'back- ground" that destined and shaped her success of today and Ros- alind herself has been generous in acknowledging her indebtedness to that education.
 It was while speaking ct Water bury,s Notre Dame Academy 6 few years ago that I was privileged to meet the Sisters of the faculty and especially the one who had played iuch 6 great part in the screen jtar's student and adolescent years.
 This SisteS and I (she requests that her uame be not published) have become the best of friends, and 1t is through her that have come to know the real Rosalind Russell-the woman of talent, dreams, ambitions and ideals.
 Most of the facts In this article have been gleamed from corres- pondence between Miss Russell and the Nun who formerly taught her, and they are published here with rare permission based upon my friendship with the latter.
 According to her friend and former teacher, the theater seems to have always been in Rosalind's mind. "Once when I asked her where she got her name" Sister rec called, ''she replied, I'm Shake. speare's RosalindP As Q girl she could make Q theater out of any hall with just 0 few decorations. She saw drama in everything"
 Later, from Hollywood, Miss Rus- sell wrote to the nun, "As I read your letter I thought of all our good times together, the night we trim med the big hall, our class parties, and the subtle way you always made us workl What e bad student was most of the time, but l did so enjoy going to your classes.
