CALL THEM AIRSHIPS
DIRIGIBLE IS INCORRECT
Landlubber writers who describe
the U. S. A. Akron as a dirigible or
a “giant dreadnought of the skies”
stand corrected by the United States
Navy. |
The Akron is not a dreadnought,
but an airship scouting cruiser. A
list of correct and incorrect terms
as appiled to the new airship has
been issued. The list, which makes
it appear very much as though the
Akron is in the navy now, follows:
Incorrect Correct |
Dirigible. Airship. |
Dreadnought Airship scout-
of the air (or ing cruiser (or
skies.). scout vessel.)
Motors. Engines or
main engines.
Miles per hour. Knots.
Rings. Frames.
Bow and stern.
Forward and
aft.
Port and star-
board.
Nose and tail.
Front and rear.
Left and right.
Gondolas. Power cars or
engine cars. |
Hangar. Dock. |
FAILURE TO GIVE AID
CARRIES HEAVY PENALTY.
Automobile operators were re-
minded by Walter W. Matthews,
chief of the safety division of the |
Bureau of Motor Vehicles, of the
severe penalty attached for failure
to stop and render assistance fol- |
an accident. |
“Thit hit-and-run operator is a
plight on the entire automobile pub- |
lic,” Matthews said. “Aside from |
what the law expects us to do in!
the event of an accident while driv- |
ing our humane instincts should be |
sufficient to force us to stop and |
render aid. The driver who hits
and runs away is a moral coward.
“This type of operator will con-|
tinue to feel the full weight of the |
law. The Vehicle Code specifical-
ly states that the operator or own-
er, latter is present, of any
vehicle involved in an accident, must
render to those injured all reason-
able aid. This includes the carry-
ing of such person to a physician or
su n for medical or surgical
treatment if necessary, or doing the
same if requested by the injured
person.
“Any person guilty of violating
this section of the code upon convic-
tion is subject to a fine of not more
than $200 and costs of prosecution,
imprisonment for not
more than three years, or suffer
both fine and imprisonment.”

MORE NIGHTMARES
FOR THE POOR STUDENTS
A clinic of trained psychologists
has been put at the service of pub-
lic schools of the State by the
Pennsylvania State College through
its school of education, Dean Will
Grant Chambers has announced. The
clinic was organized this fall by the
addition of Dr. Robert G. Bernreut-
er, formerly of Stanford University,
California, to the specialists already
on the faculty.
Dr. Bernreuter will conduct the
necessary field work for the clinic.
Other members will be William Lep-
ley, clinical psychiatrist, Dr. Bruce
Vv. Moore and Miss Mary Wyland,
personnel and placement specialists,
Herbert K. Baker, specialist in
- speech correction, and Dr. Joseph E. |
DeCamp who will be consulted in
cases of abnormalitites.
As far as possible, the Penn State |
psychologists will work through the |
local teachers when they are called
into consultation. Their services |

Lasser says the problem might
