BULBOUS VESSELS INCREASED SPEED Not Designed for Records, But fo Facilitate Repairs 5 (UP)—The | on, created Dby liners Bremen ew York, April widespread impre the record runs of the and Europa, that the Germans in- | vented the “bulbous bow™ for sels is incorrect, according to H. Boucher, a naval architect. Boucher explained today that the principle was recognized and per- fected in -the United States before cither the Bremen or Buropa Wwas built. Most of the credit, he said, oes {0 three men—an obscure 1| architeet named Trear, David W. vlor and Theodore Ierris, hoth of whom are well known ship design- crs. Irear apparently had no idea that the bulbous bow would increase speed when he began his experi- ments. He was working to make it possible for riveters to get inside the low of boats so the plates that made up the knife-cdged prow could be riveted instead of to- | gether. That would have mean a considerable reduction of expens Back in 1895 people considered | I'rear’s idea ridiculous, Boucher aid. They contended it would 1 duce speed and that all the money saved would have to be expended in | increasing the horsepower of the engines. Then Taylor began his tests in Washington with\ship models. To his surprise he found that the bulbous bow vessols made even bet- ter speed than the sharp-prowed ships with the blunt prow. Among vessels so constructed are the Shaw- nee and Iroquois of the Clyde line. Tn 1900, Boucher said. the second- | s battleships M ippi and Idaho were made with bulbous bows. The principle back of the bulbous how. Boucher said, is that instead of the vessel piling up resistance in one place ahead of the ship, it scat- ters it. The bulbous bow sends part of the resistance under the vessel and part along the sides. screwed | DOUTHIT ON BENCIT Bradenton, Ila., April »— yatkins in centerficll cond in the batting order terday when the § Louis Cardi engaged the Rochester Red Win while Taylor Douthit, regular sentry was on the bench.

HISTORIC BATTLES SPOTLOCAL ANNALS Helped to Make Political Lore There may be places somewhere, | though followers of political cvents| - doubt it very mych, in which more | gloom to the square foot settles it- at certain times, than in the headquarters of a defeated candidate | for a nomination when the sad tid-| ings come in, and it is also possible, joy that pervades the gathering| and his supporters under the same circumstances, is cxceeded. Locality makes no difference; hu- man nature is the same among poli- ticians the world over, as travelers can attest. and in New Britain, with its close and hard-fought battle in primaries and at the polls, concrete examples of high registration of dness may be found is a fight among Thousands of voters| who mever think of presenting them- selves in a municipal office the year round beeause they have no particu- lar reason for doing 50, look for- ward from clection to clection to the thrill they derive from visits to the meeting places where the hig and | little, important and insignificant in a political way, shake handsmsd.in- dulge in shoulder slapping to their hearts’ content, Comes the Verdict Gathered around tables with vot- ng lists before them and telephones at their elbows, the candidates and their lieutenants assemble to receive | the returns. ‘The fruit of weeks and | oftentimes months of careful plan- ning, hard driving, nerve racking | campaigning is about to he plucked. Sometimes it is sweet, luscious fruit. blooming with a ripeness that tempts the palate and pregnant with the promise of satisfying and soothing flavor; often it is bitter, as dry and wrinkled as a motorman’s glove, rough and furrowed as a ploughed | field, but it is there nevertheless and | must be caught as it drops from the | political tree. The telephone rings and someone hastens to answer it. “Who won?" | an anxious voter wants to know, but | nobody can tell him because no- body knows. More checking and theorizing as the lists are hastily scanned. Name after name is seen to be checked. Votes that have been cast, but for whom nobody knows. True, the candidate fecls certain that the promiscs made have been kept, but he knows, too, that if everyone who assured him of support stayed | true to the pledze, his rival must be | beaten. Here and ther ¢ names without checks. Men and women who would not take the trouble to vote, cven though fine automobiles waited at their doors. Others who ould not be in town for one reason or another. Some whose absence saved one of the candidates from a vote against him; others who never let anyone know their choice, But all voters nevertheless. On the Home Stretch A ward checker calls in. The ward went for one or another candidate Iy a hundred or two votes. It's good news, encouraging, and it sharpens the interest. The fight will be close but there’s a good chance for both rivals. The room buzzes with excite- ment. Pencils and paper are pro- duced from pockets and tables. Hasty figuring. ~Whispered predic- tions. Another ward comes in, and another and another, until definite figures are available. The decision rests with one district. It should be for onc man but it may be for the other. Call headquarters! Call the newspapers! All lines are busy. The vote is heavy and the counters are careful. It looks like this man but nobody knows, and then—the fight is lost. The defeated gladiator stands up with a quizzical smile on his fea- tures. His manager and lieutenan are beside him. “Good fight, old man. Tough luck” on all sides as the atmosphere clears. He is thankful to the friends who supported him. He shall never forget their loyalty. It was a hard fight but a clean one, and it is the duty of all good party men and women to work for the success of the ticket. And away he goes, probably to the party head- quarters, possibly to the camp of his conqueror. He makes a statement 1o the press. Congratulations and Dbest wishes to his rival, and then to his home, beaten, tired and perhaps dis- couraged. Post Mortems Tnquiries pour into his headquar- ters. Anyone canh answer the tele- phone now. The place is in disor- | teeman der. Everyone has an explanation of the defeat. “I told you so” crops up in every corner. “If he hadn’t said this, or if he had said that” pipes up a campaigner with the mark of the inexperience of youth stamped in his frown. The crowd moves along. Nothing to remain for. Over- coats are unpiled. Typewriters are covered. A press of a button and {like the hopes of the candidate the lights go out, not with a flicker nor a gradual dimness, but with a snap that bespeaks decisiveness, Head- quarters is in darkness. What of the victor? He, too, had his coterie of workers, busy with lists, pe and telephones, and the decision of the voters came to him a few moments before it reach- ed the other camp. He had won. He is nominated. He is on the crest of the wave of popularity, and what matters if there are breakers ahead Great shouts go up as all the pent up cmotion of the campaign breaks loose. The winner is pushed and jostled until it scems as though ne will be injured. His back is slapped. not gently and encouragingly as it had been when someone was trying | to bolster him in the carly days of his fight, but heartily, roughly, and sincerely. His hand is wrung by hundreds who flock in from the street to be with the first to com- gratulatec him. Both hands are bus He can’t speak fast enough to an- swer all his well wishers. He's wanted on the telephone and he's wanted in headquarters, and the re- porters want him. His party’s choice, the man of the hour! They Know How it Feels Stalwarts of the two major par- ties in New Britain have interesting memorics of dozens of such scenes, some exceedingly sweet and pleas- ant, and others heavy with disap- pointment. State Central Comnflt- Richard Covert, former George A. Quigley. Senator 1%, Hall, former Mayor Or- rtis, Ernest N. Humphr rnest W, Christ and many others affiliated with the repub- lican party have been through the mill as principals or lieutenants many times, and they Xknow full well the thrill that accompanies such experiences. Covert and Quigley were th> principal actors in one of the out- standing dramas of local politics in 1920 when Quigle republican nomination for mayor for the fourth successive time and failed. Covert was his manager and former Mayor Curtis was his op- ponent, .Quigley and Curtis had locked horns before and the former had always won, but on this occ sion he fcll before the attack and it “was a bitter pill to swallow. Mayor ward Quigley headquarters were in the | McCabe block on the east side of Main street at the railroad tracks and it was there he reccived the verdict. 1t stunned himy and he showed it. That he was beaten was bad cnough, but that it was Curlis who delivered the blow was worsc. “Well, call him up and congratulate him’” someone in the room suggest- ed, but Quigley could not bring him- self to do it. “I can’'t be a hypo- crite” was his dogged reply. “Run on an independent ticket and beat him, George” a well meaning sup- porter urged but Quigley shook hi head. “No, I'm still a republican” he answered between clenched teeth. “Well, Tl stick with the ship” was Covert's only observation and a little later the lights went out and tho primary campaign had ended. Quigley turned the tables on Cur- tis in the primary two years later after his rival had served one term | as mayor, but complete victory elud- ed his grasp and Mayor Paonessa downed him at the polls. Quigley stayed out of the next primary and Judge Benjamin W. Alling was the nominee, only to be beaten by Mayor Paonessa. In 1926 Quigle made another try but Gardner C. Weld took his measure in the most decisive victory anyone has ever scored over him, and in 1928 Quig- ley again stayed out, only to make a successful comeback last week. On the Democratic side, inter- parly fights have been fewer than in the G. O. I, but Registrar Thom- as J. Smith, Judge W. Mangan Mayor Paoncssa, John I Keev- Attorney " Patrick 1, McDon- former Mayor Joscph M. Halloran, Lawrence T. John 1. Leeney, 1. O. Kilbourne and other veterans have been in the thick of numerous campaigns against the republican legion, and have seen political history made. Mayor Paonessa liked to be at home when the results of the ele tions came in, but he loved to be in the center of activities when the celebrations were staged. His friends marveled at his physical stamina. for he could trudge all over town in a parade and make a dozen speeches, after putting in hard weeks of campaigning with scarce- ly a day or night of rest Democrats Awaited G. O. T'. In the days when republican vic- torics at spring and fall clections were taken for granted, the only question being the margin in the various wards, democratic l\*nd(.‘rs having offices in New PBritain Na- tional Bank building would wait with bated breath for the shout ?D go up in republican headquarters in the same building. If it was a re- sounding, beam splitting roar, the news was bad—for the democrats— but if it was merely a cheer it sig- nified that while the G. O. P. had again won, the victory was not over decisive. As the years pass and the popu- lation of the city increases, political leaders find it more difficult to forecast election results. A decade or so ago, they say, it was com- paratively casy to foresce the sw: of the multitude, but with twic the number of voters cligible in Jater years, including the tremend- ous change brought about by ths cnfranchisement of women, —any- thing can happen and often docs.
