that something slightly more
deadly has shown up.
That's where the musician
comes in, and Capt. A. q. w.
McFadden, head Of the school,
Is high in his praise Of what
was accomplished in the last
war by youngsters who had
never handled anything more
deadly than a trumpet.
"Sometimes you would have
thought it was an orchestra
tuning up, the way they'd
experiment with different
sounds" he chuckles.
When the students enter
the school they receive a
severe ear test to determine
whether they can meet the
basic requisite. A phono-
graph record of 10 pairs"
of sounds Is turned on, and
the student is required to say
which Is high and low in each
instance.
Next come instructions on
the makeup Of the equipment.
and each student must learn
all about the assembly of
transducer and stack.
Then comes the study of
the operation Of the units,
with problems laid out on at
tack plotters.

gether, and the percentage of
failures is not high because of

1t. Henry Rudowski, who
directs the training schedule
against the background of
some 80 years work with elec-
tronics, describes the use of
sonar as akin to q blind man
poking his way along with a
cane.
The apparatus used is a
two-unit affair. The pickup"
machine, which Is called the
transducer, resembles q bell
buoy and may be afiixed to
the keel-hne Of q destroyer or
the top Of q submarine.
It Is this which sends the
sound waves through the wa
ter-the effective range varies
with c0nditions-and once q
wave comes in contact with
some subsurface object It
"bounces back" to the point
Of origin, and then Is recorded
on the other device, the sonar
stack in the ships interior,
which in general outline Is
like the linotype machine used
by newspapers. The general
location of the object picked
up Is shown on a screen, and
the stack begins to "chirp." It
Is this sound that the skilled
sonar operator must learn to
translate, for the sound waves

Y.M'C.A. Celebrates
10Th Anniversary

On June6, 1884, a little group o.

ISOLATION. That makes the Y.M.C.
A. movement IDA years old. Super
flcially, it might seem that the ~
should keep silent about it's birth
days, as accumulated years hold
little in the way of popular appeal.
Thinking persons will realize,
however, that it is quite possible
for a organization to endure for
many years and still keep young
particularly one in which youth is
"of the essence"
Vast changes have taken place
since 1914 but through peace and
war, prosperity and depression, the
need of youth for encouragement,
counsel and wholesale activities
has remained constant. That is
why the Y.M.C.A. has spread to
"a countries and continued to grow
Out of its ceaseless delving into
the need of youth over the years
have come many important social
developments. Here in America,
the Y.M.C.A. has pioneered in or
ganization work for city youth, for
young men in the Armed Ser
vices, for boys, for railroad men,
for students of universities and
high schools. 1t has given US the
games of basket ball and volleyball
pioneered in boys camps, launched
the father and son program, and
promoted the first national swim
ming and life-saving campaign.
Still more items could be added to
this impressive list.
Solidly rooted in the life of
thousands Of communities around
the world and kept young by a
continuous inflow Of new general
the Y.M.C.A. wears its burden of
years lightly and promises to add
many more decades of increasing
ly fruitful service.

PARISH STREET SATURDA'

Parish STREET SATURDAY
NIGHT Almost all of the
good brothers was there whei we
gathered for our regular SATURDAY
night setting of fish and beer up
en- the north end, and just about
everybody that was there came to
a complete agreemet on what was
said in general about some of the
younger Parish Streeters and the
things they are doing from day to
day. What brought the converse
ton up was this. One of the good
brothers said that one thing he has
been noticing for long time i
the way a lot of the young chilluns
grow up too fast. For example, he
said, that whole lot of youngsters
hardlyo wait til they git dry behind
the ears before they starts calling
the older brothes and sisters by
their first names. Now he said that
some of the brothers and sister
were old enough for these chilluns
Gandm aand Pa, but that didn't
seem to make no difference to them
at all. We all that was talkingo
kinda came to this conclusion.
Most of the younger set figures
that it's show of intelligence to
ncall their elders by their first
name an dthat the lder folks will
respect them more when they do
that. nNow that just shows you
how wrong people can be. You
show intelligence and curtes when
you address people by their proper
title, said title being Mr.. and Mrs.
as the case may be. People think
you're an uncouth little upstart
when you address them as plain
Phil Smith or Carsie Hall If Jack
Young or whoever else the person
in question happens to be. They
might not say nothing to you abou
it because the figures it won't do
no good, but they respect you
whole lot more when you reme0ah
that they have been citizens of the
ole avenoo for a whole lot longer
time than you. You see, when the
the brothers has been buying THEN
own beans and paying rent a Z
taxes and raising a family and
doing all them things for a
number of years, they figures
they have earned the right to ey-
pect your respect . And every
body else's ~.
