Pilotless Plane Flight. Continued from Fifteenth Page All battleships and submarines were very soon equipped with this device. “Mr. Sperry's early work on the gyroscope led to the observation that the directional power employed in the compass was only one of its major contributions. It has another useful power, which Mr. Sperry often refers to as ths ‘muscle’ of the gyro, the reaction available for the stabilizaticn of any oscillating body, such as a rolling ship. Beginning with the first tests of ships’ models in tanks—by that nestor of naval experimentalists, the elder Froude—it came to be recognized that ships rolled freely. the energy of the roll being insignificant at its beginning, before the individual wave sections by their combined efforts had built up wide- angle rolling. Both energy and roll due to any single wave expansion were insignificant. Real- izing this fact, Sir Philip Watts was the first to provide means for suppressing roll, installing his device on two battleships in the early '80s. “Naval architects have followed his lead with many attempts to reduce the rolling of ships. It was realized that if the energy of each wave expansion could be anticipated by corresponding reaction, then the ship could be easily prevented from all beginnings of rolling and thus wouid never roll, except very slightly. Mr. Sperry, with the active type of gyroscope, created and properly timed the anticipatory reactions, and gauged their power to meet each wave expansion as it arrived. This method involved artificial motion of the gyroscope on a non-rolling ship while maintaining a level deck. It was an out- standing achievement. “In tests a little reversing engine was used to produce the artificial motion, which caused the gyro to oscillate between two rolling posi- tions. Important to note, it was established that when entirely free from roll the ship was also entirely devoid of stresses. All groanings and other weird noises of - a rolling ship ceased com- pletely when it was stabilized. Calculations by naval architects in different countries all prove conclusively that this is exactly what should have occurred. 34 Decay. 42 One of an ancient 35 South African m‘:‘-: antelopes. 43 Lyric poems. 44 Prophet. 36 East Indian cereal 46 Sesame. grass. 48 Five dollar bill: 37 Rapidity. soilog,. “THIS was the first time that a ship was ever under complete control. By opening a single little switch as large as a pocketknife, this control could be removed, with the result that she wculd roll to the seas terrifically, allowing all kinds of observations to be made at different angles to the waves and at different speeds. Yet the rolling could be suppressed entirely in about flve ‘oscillations by the simple closing of this same switch! “Many yachts also have been fitted with gyro- stabilizers during the last few years, additional evidence that complete stabilization of ships has nocw become an established fact. The pioneer work of Mr. Sperry will certainly lead to the adoption of this device for both naval and passenger service. It will make an extremely important contribution to both, but especially to the Navy, by increasing the accuracy of gun- fire and the facility to serve the guns. It will also increase the usefulness of airplane-carriers.” (Copyright, 1929.) Sale of Reindeer Meat. IF your appetite is a bit jaded with beef, veal, lamb, pork and poultry a new meat may soon be available to reawaken your interest in " food. A few years ago a sample or trial shipment of reindeer meat was made to the Eastern sec- tion of the country and then no more was forth- coming and the shipment was soon forgotten. The proposed entry of reindeer meat into the market, however, was not a flash in the pan, and preparations have gone forward steadily toward the day when Alaska will take its place with the States in supplying the Nation’s meat rations. The herds have been increased until now there is available a large quantity of the meat for export. The meat was first marketed in the Northwest, then on transcontinental trains and finally in metropolitan hotels in the East. Looking to the time when the meat will be regularly in the market, Bureau of Homa Eco- nomics experts have worked orit a reindeer recipe book. Because the meat Is shipped frozen, care has to be taken in gradually thaw- ing it at low temperatures before it is ready to be cooked. The meat has a characteristic flavor, gamy, but not strong. Because of the size and shape of the reindeer differing from cattle, the cuts are different and their preparation character- istic. The bureau hopes to be able to furnish all the needed information for the housewife by the time the meat is ready for general sale,
