only one field goal in this period,
but made 13 of 20 fouls. The
Eagles got within two points at

Navy Celebrates 57th
Anniversary OF Subs

April II is the 53rd anniversary
of the acceptance of the submarine
Holland by the Navy Department.
John Phillip Holland built the
first submarine for the Navy IN
1900. 1t was a stubby cigar shaped
craft powered by four cylinder
gasoline engine. The boat could
submerge for short periods and
was considered of slight military
significance at the time.
Germany was the first to ex-
plot the submarine as a major
weapon of naval warfare. In the
"unterseeboots" the Kaiser found
the one weapon that could chal-
Ienge the might of the British
Navy.
In both World Wars of the goth
Century the Allies developed
methods of combating the subma-
rine menace before the German
Navy completely strangled our
war effort, but not before mllllons
of tons of vital war materials and
thousands of lives were lost.
In the Pacific, our fleet type
submarines virtually dominated
the sea lanes. They sank two thirds
of Japan's merchant tonnage, and
one third of her naval losses.
In addition to sinking enemy
ships, submarines secuted enemy
waters, took reconnaissance photo
graphs, landed pre-invasion scout
ing parties. supported guerillas in
occupied countries, evacuated en-.
emy encircled outposts, mined Jap.
anese home waters, and rescued
downed airmen.
After the war, the Navy mod
ernized and improved submarines
One of the improvements was the
