ROUGH RIDER MYTH have read or heard of the famous Roosevelt | Rough Riders of the Spanish-American War | believe that those ambitious troopers charged up San Juan Hill on horséback, | booted and spurred, sabers waving in the | ait. | A writer in a recent magazine graphic- ally portrayed their exploit as that of “500 men on horseback standing in their stirrups shouting to one another like polo players.” The truth is that the Rough Riders marched and fought on foot in Cuba, as did other cavalry regiments, their horses hav- ing been left behind when they sailed from the United States. zi Due to Theodore Roosevelt’s vivid per- sonality and the large amount of publicity given the regiment by New York news- paper men, the Rough Riders received the | lion’s share of credit for the victory at San- | tiago, a share far greater than was their | just due. That they were brave men and good fighters none will deny, but they were in ‘| that respect no different from other troops, some of whom received scant attention in: the dispatches. . The Rough Riders did no riding, rough or otherwise, in Cuba. NEW DEWICE TO BEAT U-BOATS Some hope springs from the recent statement of Charles F. Kettering fore- casting a new device to master the sub- marine. Mr. Kettering is not an idle dreamer. What he says,can hardly be dismissed as trivial conversation, designed to catch the headlines. There must be something be- hind his prediction that -boats will be de- tected, even at night on the high seas. Naturally, it would be asking too much | | to expect the great industrial scientist to tell us the whole secret about the work that has been going on, in cooperation’ with the Navy for the past six years. A'device to apprehend submarines upon the surface of the ocean at night | | would do much toward meeting the peril of Key West Naval Station com- | the U-boat. It might be based upon the de- tection of sound, the location of engines | with delicate apparatus to measure heat, or some radio invention that marks mar- | vels. come a lost art, but with the parking situa- | tion what it is, the human bipeds are get- | It is idle to speculate but the develop- ment of such a detector would mean much in the Battle of the Atlantic.
