Among the most carefully treasured relics of the club are a number of spyglasses that were used vears ago by the skippers of old ‘whalers which have long since been burned for their copper rivets, spy" glasses that ca memories of scores of whaling. trips and which the skip- pers gave to the club when they had returned to port for the last time. The. glasses, inscribed with the names and records of their donors have hung for years on the walls of clubhouses and few if any of their former owners are still alive. At a recent meeting of the club, when it was reported that the Navy department through the Connecticut State Council of Defense, had asked for, loans of idle spyglasses and binoc- ulars to aid the navy in its hunt for submarines, the members, deciding that they were showing the same spirit their ancestors would = have shown. voted unanimously td offer ail the club’s spyglasses to the Navy for use during the war. Thé offer has been transmitted to Washington and will be accepted. Soon the spyglasses will be Qistributed to the Navy's sea scouts and if the officers of today can spot submarines as-easily with them as the old_skippers could spot whales when they. were alive, their ghosts will chuckle with glee as they add sub- raarines to the tally of deep sea mon- sters caught with the aid of their prized glasses.
