 PRACTICE, TRAINING FOR HUNTING OF SUBMARINES

N. C., and Sunnyvale. Cal, Further extending operations is a new ex- peditionary- fnooring mast tel escopic and carried by truck, which has been tested satisfactorily in winds of near hurricane force.
 The airship tK-2) destined for typical patrol use. is constructed for duty in close cooperation with the fleet. It houses fully equipped radio station-also car rier pigeons and has facilities for mapping the position of each of the 30 to 50 ships noted in a days flight. The crew of eight two pilots, radio men, triggers and mechanic-all act as observers.
 The newest patrol blirnps have ample living quarters for the full crew. are able to make 76 miles an hour, and. with development of the expeditionary mast, no longer are hangar bound They hold some 100000 cubic feet of lifting helium.
 Such a blimp can come to rest on the surface of the water; pick up supplies, fuel and water bal last; and change crews while rid ing at anchor. They can refuel from passing ship which need not slow down, opening the pos sibility of still closer action with the fleet.

WHY THE NAME BLIMP?

As the airship grew out of its infancy, craft fell into one of three general classifications ac- cording to structure; those without metal achievements were called non-rigid or limp. The first successful British non-rigids were the B-limp type. English sailors promptly coined the name "blimp"-and it stuck.

By JOE MORTON AP Feature Service Writer

LAKEHURST, N. J.-Each morn ing of the year, not long after daybreak, early risers in this New Jersey pineland region glance au- tomatically 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 nightfall they return, each with log showing operations over some 1000 square miles.
 The biifnps, tendons in the pow crful 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waters to tor pedo merchantmen, lay mines, and otherwise harry shipping in hope part of the U. S. fleet would be withdrawn from Europe.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 de- stroyed, among them the cruiser U.S.S. San Diego.
 In the present war the United States, at peace, has her guard up. Blimp crews, trained by intensive daily maneuvers, are ready for ac- tion.-
 The blimp (non-rigid airship), whether lowering motionless or cruising at a speed up to 65 knots an hour, serves the Navy best at reconnaissance Its crew has time to search minutely for the oil smears rising inevitably behind a U-boat several weeks from its base, and to watch for the tell-tale white wake of submarine. Under certain conditions the submerged craft itself may be spotted-some have been sighted 90 feet down.
 For the present day patrol, whales and sharks-far smaller than submarines-afford common practice targets. Miniature depth bombs may be dropped for prac- tice; full-size depth bombs lie in the racks.
 The gas-filled craft sauntering from Lakehurst's Naval Air Sta ton today scout northward and southward 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 turk.
 It was with the intention of making this ''inshore belt secure that Congress authorized con- struction of 48 lighter than-air craft for patrol purposes. Five of these are being delivered to Lake hurst at the rate of one a month; funds for 21 others hays been al- located. Actually on patrol duty are four ships, the rest are being used in greatly expanded train ing operations.

terials that drape well, such as jer-
sey. She also likes rich brocades,
sequins. gold and silver metal lame.
Her designing ability. however, is
not just limited to dresses. She has
also designed very original pair
of boots. They are white leather
and fit snug up to the knee, with
a upper running from top to toe.
The soles are rough and sled like
to keep you from slipping on the
ice, while on the slightly pointd toes
are small silver bells.
According to Cecil. women should
be careful about buying dresses fea-
turing the new dropped shoulder
line. This is because such a short
line across the shoulders has
tendency to make the hips look large
by comparison and gives a pyramid
effect. Of course, if your figure is
well proportioned, you will look well
in any style.
Shall skirts be worn longer or
shorter this year? Three inches be-
low the knee said Cecil, is more
graceful and fattering.
