SHENANDOAH MAY. NOT GO WITH FLEET Crmsmg Ftadlus lext of Dirigible Makes Voyage to Hawaii Doubtful. Plans for cruising the airship Shenandoah with the Fleet during the Spring maneuvers in Hawalian waters nex ar may have to be revised becayse of the Himited | prescnt cruising capacity of-the ship. | As now equipped the Shenandoah | hss @ crulsing radius of about 2,500 | miles without - refueling, and it is| understood that during the recent | conterence to plan for the emplo; mient of the ship during the few Monthy “Eome of ‘thé " experts raised the question whether it would | be wise to send the big airship to| Hawali.

The ship is now operated by five motors, de- Veloping 300 horsepower each, and one suggestion is that they be replaced with three 600-horsepower - geared drive motors, which have ‘a very much reduced weight in comparison with the power produced. This| difference in weight would increase | the capacity of the ship to carcy | tuel. | it seems unlikely, however, that| ¢ alterations could be made in | to permit the Shenandoah to participate in the . fleet. maneuvers sn_Hawaiian waters.

Then, when I met him on the pike, he'd fold me in his fond embrace, and cry, “Well, well! So help me Mike, its good to see your honest face! Its good to meet a worthy skate, as on my toilsome path I trudge; you know I am a candidate? I'd br clected county judge.

He, does not answer when I nod, my charming smile he dges-not note; so when he runs again I'll prod his high ambitions with my vote. (Copyright) WALT MASON. Officey Reassigned. Lieut. Col.
