Mrs. o. P. Robinson Sponsored USS Dace, First Submarine Launched At Victory Yard
Victory Yard, April 22 CThe sub)

Victory Yard, April p CThe Sub) Another impressive chapter in the history of the Electric Boat Company was written on Easter Sunday, when, at special ceremon- les, Mrs. O. P. Robinson christened the first submarine launched at the Victory Yard, and an Army Navy production pennant, with two stars, was. awarded.
 The submarine launched was the U. s. s. DACE. The keel for this boat was laid down when the Vic- tory Yard was officially opened last summer.
 At the same time, women being trained at the Summer War Session of Connecticut College at New Lendon for work in war production plants, and Dr. Katherine Blunt, president of the college, who orig hated the Summer War Session, were commended for their initia- tive
 When the Victory Yard was opened there was anticipation that women would be hired for actual

production work, and this antici- patton became reality.
 The Electric Boat Company be- came a New England leader in hiring women for production work, and was the first to assign them to actual production activity on ttne boats. The submarine on which women first went to work was the "DACE."
 When the Victory Yard was of- ficially opened, there were three Electric Boat Company submarines which had carried out successful missions against the enemy, for which their commanders had re- ceived the Navy Cross. Now the record boards on the North Yard plate shop show that 24 of the Elec- tric Boat submarines have won this honor, and six have won it twice. The hope that the "DACE" will join the roll of honor will ac- company the submarine as she slides down the ways.
 The Secretary Of the Navy deS- ignated Mrs. Robinson as the spon- Sor, and she broke the traditional bottle of champagne across the bow of this cruising fighter, just before the submarine slid into the wa ters of the Thames River.
 There has always been a thrill when Electric Boat Company sub marines have taken their maiden

dip, but the slide of the 'DACE" was particularly inspiring because of the fact that it was the first launching at the Victory Yard.
 E. B. Co. Awarded Third Pennant
 The Army-Navy "E" pennant, awarded at the time of the launch ing of the "DACE," indicates con- tinuing top production.
 The first award to the Nelseco Plant was the Navy ''E' in March of 1942. At that time it was an- nounced that continuing top pro- duction would bring a repeat award. The continuing awards are made every six months. The off cial presentation ceremony, how ever, for the second award was held last November. At that time the Navy pennant was replaced by the Army Navy "E' under pro- gram which had the Army and Navy sharing in the presentation of the production awards. The pen- nant carried star, to show that it was repeater. Now, the third pennant will be the Army-Navy "E" with two stars.

 hash for no cash, and are things happening fast! Joe Turisco has ordered another batch of hangers while Tom Lang Is after more fit tings, and smiling Bill Kitteridge is getting more studs and Russ Zito more foundations, and now that yours truly has the missing hub cap for his car (thanks, PhiD this is bound to equal more launch- ings In less time. BUY BONDS!
 Some people have all the luck. I refer to Frank Calewartz, Coast Guard Radio Instructor at Avery Point, who, on June g, this year, is going to deprive Dept. 320, north store, of the services of one of it's esteemed clerks, Jeanne Savage. Of course, we can hardly blame Jeanne for accepting after having look at Frank.
 MT. and Mrs. Calewartz (after June 23) plan to make their blonde maple furnished home at Poquon- noe Bridge. Congrats to the lucky groom and best wishes to a lovely bride, who, incidentally, requests that no one wash their car on June 9 SO that we can have good weather the next day.
 Heard from Al Venditti, who left the V Plate shop recently to add another link to the chain of the U. s. Navy. Al is doing Okay and would like to hear from his fellow workers at the plant. To those of you who wish to write, the address is. Alfred c. Venditti, A. S.; U. s. Navy Training Station; Sampson, N. Y.
 Orchids to Ed Yeadon, Hal Ar senault and Ed Beebe of 333 V, who have been awarded a gold button recently. Congrats to the dept. heads for the good choices, and best of luck to Ed, Hal and Ed.
 wonder if Dick Latimer of V. 1T. V. uSpt. IS aware IIldb He Has all admirer from the main yard. Some body ought to put him wise be- cause she is plenty nice. Tall, blonde, blue eyes and really beauti- full. Say, Dick, what will you give me If tell you who she Is? Rene Roy of Transportation dept. says he comes from Norwich, where men are men and the draft board is glad of 1t. According to what hear, Rene is exactly the specimen in appearance. However, he tangled with the wrong opponent to box with one day, and since then he hasn't said any more about it. That's O. K, Brittle Ribs," we still like the way you handle material on that truck.
 Well, folks, that's all the hash for now, but I'll see what I can dig out of the moth balls for the next issue.
 So until then, keep happy and slap Happy for Pappy by BUYING BONDS.

Mony Leaders Lineer
In Losing Territory;
1,0,m 900 Traded
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, May 2l.-Assorted
rails and specialties took late turn
on the recovery side Of today's stock
market while many leaders fingered
in losing territory.
Prices slipped at the start Deal
ings then slowed and scattered
comebacks were In evidence around
midday. A little buying came in
near the close and final trends were
no worse than mildly irregular. VOL
ume expanded a trifle at the last
and transfers for the full proceed
ings were around 1000 900 shares
Variations mostly were in minor
fractions although isolated gains
and losses Of or so were observed.
The war news again served as a
supporting influence. The approach
of the week end inspired profit
cashing here and there and COM
mitments were restricted otherwise
because of labor riffs and tax
doubts. There was batch of pleas
ing dividends, but these seemed to
have scant effect on stocks con-
cerned. Erie directors, for instance,
voted another 50-cent payment on
the common and certificates, the
third such in the roads history. and
the shares did virtually nothing.
Prominent forward movers in
cluded Union Pacific, Santa Fe,
Market Street Railway preferred,
American Telephone, Sears Roe
buck, Philip Morris and Douglas
Aircraft. Downward inclinations
were shown by j. I. Case. General
Motors, U. S. Steel, Eastman Kodak,
Anaconda, Westinghouse and Elec-
trio Power e. Light.
Bonds were uneven.

bound after 20 years Of life in the
East. Calmly, cody, but with =
world Of pent-up feeling behind
her alert intelligent eyes, Mrs.
harrington answered some Of our
questions about those last days in
Sumatra. It isn't a very pretty
story and it is one that she won't
soon forget. After what she saw
and lived through she hasn't
much patience with the petty
things that people here find to
complain about-and you feel
quite certain that come what may
Mrs. Harrington herself isn't go
ing to complain.
Her life is like story book. She
was born in Australia Of an Eng
nsh mother and a Swedish father.
She had most Of her schooling In
Australia; learned to play the
violin so well that she became a
professional violinist. She studied
piano, too, and ballet dancing.

about her parents.
"And your husband?" he asked,
"Where was he born?" I'm Syra-
cuse," said Mrs. Harrington. "Ah,"
replied the gentleman, How nice
"a Greek"
She loves this story. She laughs,
too, when she tells you how she
looked that day that the ship
bearing her husband and herself
home was torpedoed. She was
wearing shorts, she says, and her
best Regent Street suit jacket. In
her hand she carried a big sun
shade hat and a pair of slacks-
these latter items to protect her
from the strong burning sun. And
her husband took one look at her
and commented, Mrs. Livingston,
I presume.
She likes to think that people
can still laugh-in the face Of
danger and stress and hard grim
sacrifice.

Accidental Deaths Rise
3 Pct. in Factory Areas
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, April 23.-Accidental
deaths in most Of the Nations prin-
ciple industrial States in the first
quarter Of this year totaled 2,037, an
increase of 8 per cent over the same
period of 1912, the National Safety
Council said today.
The council said reports were re-
ceived by 81 State industrial COM
pensation commissions, which also
reported 739 accidental deaths in
March this year, IA per cent in
crease over March, 1912
Fifteen of the 81 States reported
more deaths in the first quarter this
year than in 1912, ranging from per
cent in Illinois and Tennessee and 4
per cent in Ohio to 70 per cent in
Kentucky and 108 per cent in
Arizona. The council explained that
the large increases involved small
numbers of deaths and probably
were due in part to chance fluctua-
tionS.
