Lady Assistant NORWICH BULLETIN, WEDRESDAY, APRIL 28, 1915 GALLAUDET MILITARY TRACTORS Interesting Type of Machine With the “Made in Norwich” Mark—Unique Among Aircraft Yet Produced in This Country—War Plane and Destroyer are Two Types Constructed. The Aerial Age (New York) for the current week has on its cover a fine picture of the 100 h. p. Gallaudet military tractor, built by the Gallaudet company of Norwich at its Thames- ville factory. In the April 12th issue of -the ~same periodical -~ Walter H. Phipps devotes two pages to en illus- trated description of the Gallaudet model. Of it he writes: Amongst the most interesting types of machines which have yet been pro- duced in this country, both from theé standpoint of design and construction, are the new Gallaudet military tract- ors. Certain features which are consid- ered of fundamental importance are in- corporated in all the designs. The center of propulsion is made as nearly as possible coincident with the center of resistance, and the center of lift is made coincident with the center of gravity. The shape and position of the wings, particularly at their ends, is such that the machines are inher: ently stable, banking themselves on turns, and righting themselves against disturbing influences. All parts are given stream line form wherever pos- sible, and head resistance has been eliminated in every possible manner. The same characteristics which are considered so important on the tract- ors are incorporated in the design of the néw pusher and double engined types. The standard type of torpedo shape fuselage is retained in both pusher types, the war plane and the destroy- ‘er. In the destroyer type, with two engines, cone clutches permit the use of either engine or both, as desired. Fuselage. The fuselage is of torpedo ,form, circular in cross section, and made of three-ply mahogany veneer, or of aero | bile licénses of metal plate. Wing: The wings are built up in the ordi- nary manner, with ribs made of spruce battens nailed and cemented to white- wood veneer webs, assembled on . four spars, two main spars of seamleéss stee] tubing and two auxiliary spars or joists of spruce. This construction gives such great strength and stiffness $355,272 RAISED IN TWENTY-FIVE YEARS By Connecticut D. A. R.—Mrs. Buel Reported at Washington. At last week’'s D. A. R. convention in Washington, Mrs. John L. Buel, the Connecticut state regent read her an- nual report to the congress, which was received, approved and flled in the archives of the organization. It show- ed some interesting facts. One of them was that during the past year the Connecticut D. A. R. chapters, all together, gave over $3,200 to the Red Cross relief fund and $3,000 towards paying off the debt of the society on Continental Hall. Mrs. Buel gave figures compiled for the past twenty-five years, which showed that during that period the total é%Xpenditures by the D. A. R. chapters in Connecticut. in carrying om the various lines of work that have been conducted, aggregated $355- 272.10. The total contribution towards the society’s debt on Continental Hall that Connecicut has made to date, ac- cording to Mrs. Buel's report, was nearly $29,000. During the twenty- five-years period Cnonecticut D. A. R. chapters have given $1,700 towards es- tablishing seholarships for Southern mountaineers at Marysville College and other institutions of education. The D. A. R. i8 buying a plot of ground adjoining and back of Conti- nental Hall, which is in that section of the national capital that is near the site of the great Lincoln Memorial, now being constructed. There has been friendly rivalty among the dele- gations from. several states to see which would buy most of that land. It is held by the owners at a valuation of $1.26 a square foot. The other day a scene occurred like that at an auc- tion, when the rivalry between the Connecticut delegation and that from the District of Columbia reached a climax. First. Connecticut announced that she would buy a fpot or a few feet, or a score of féet. Then the Dis- trict delegation did likewise. Th& race kept up. evenly for some time, until Connecticut finally carried off the palm by announcing a pledge to buy 100 additional feet of the ground. This made the tof purchases by the Connecticut D. A. R. 415 square feet, Whlc{l the District delegation could not equal. It is said that the total membership of the D. A. R. in Connecticut is 5,008 and that theré has been a large in- crease in membership during the past year. e s NEOSHA WHIST, Twelve Tables Were Playing in For- * esters’ Hall, There were 12 tablées at the Neosha whist in Foresters’ hall on Monday evening and the prizes were awarded as_follows: \ z Ladies, first;, Mrs. Neéttie Kinney, china dish; second, Miss Millie Scho- fleld, basket of ‘pansies; consolation, Miss Nellle- Howard.

Greenenwald of New London, charged with reckless driving of his motor car on April 18 in this town, was found guilty in the town court today and fined $100 and costs. The chargé grew out of a collision between Greenenwald’s car and that of Dr. 8. M. Garlick of Bridgeport, in which.Miss Grace Reilly, a passefi- ger in Garlick's car, wids injured se. verely. Robert H. Clemens, chaufteur for Dr. Garlick, who was arrested qn a charge. .of taking his. employer's car without permission, had the charge against him nolled.

President Wilson' says he thinks he is getting out of the “duffer class.” That, too, however, is & meére matter of opinion—Philadeélphia Inquirer. ' Derby.~Secretary. of State Charles D. Biirnes has suspendéd the sutomo- erman A, Ji :of Derby and Thomas J. Wall of Torring- ton. Both men have figured in recent accidents. that fewer queen posts are needed be- tween wings, and head resistance is congiderably reduced. The wings are well trussed inside, and covered with unbleached linen, fllled and tightened with Gallaudet aero varnish, and sur- faced with best yacht varnisk. The cloth is fastened to the ribs above and below by small screws and wash- ers. Posts. The queen posts between the wings are of spruce, cut to stream line sec- tion, capped at both ends with bronze heads, and are interchangeable. Posts connecting wings to fuselage and the front legs are of ash. The skids are of ash and spruce laminated. Running Gear. The running gear consists of stout wire wheels with plain clincher rims and standard automobile tires, mount- ed on a nickel steel axle riding in bronze shoes suspended on rubber springs. 'The tail skid is hickory rein- forced with geamless steel tubing, piv- oted at the bottom of the fuselage at the extreme tail, and relieved by stout rubber springs at its upper end inside the fuselag® Light skids of hickory are also fitted to the tips of the lower rvlng's to protect them in bad land- ngs. ‘The controls consist of the Deper- dussin wheel and foot bar type. Ailer- ons are rigged to pull up only, and bell cranks are used instead of pulleys. The stays consist of stranded plow steel cable with steel turnbuckles. Pontoons. Pontoons of mahogany or of aero metal plate can be fitted so that all types may be used as seaplanes. Although the Gallaudet Brothers— Edeon F. and Denison—have an office at 111 Broadway, New York, with Raymgnd Pynchon, in the technical magazines they never fail to advertise their tractor biplanes, hydro-mono- lanes and flying boats—aeroplanes de luxe for boating, racing and cross- country flying—as made in Norwich. This is true also of their new inven- tion, aero varnish. “Norwich, Conn, . 8. A,” gets an advertisement with any agd all output of the Gallaudet company’s Thamesville plant.

A ‘young man of about 17 years who was stealing a ride, who ciaimed his home is in New York, was pulled out from under a passenger car on. the train that arrived in Tafts station at 7.45, Tuesday morning, by Station Agent Jchn McDonald. On question- ing the boy the station agent found out that his home was in New York and that he had been employed in a factory but had been laid off and in seeking employment he had landed in Plainfield, where he cast away unnec- essary baggage owing to its heaviness and boarded the train, riding on the bumpers. He was very hungry and as he told a straightforward story it touched the heari of the station agent, who took him to a nearby restaurant and gave the boy a substantial break- fast.. On taking a colleetion among the train crew enough money was pro- cured to purchase the young man a ticket. aboard the Chelsea and a little pocket money besides. Before leaving Tuesday evening by boat he was given a supper. The boy claims he has a father in the metropolis.
