Sports Sidelights Interclass field hockey, fifth competitive sport for women of fered during this semester, will New Lubricating Process To Permit Higher Flights Engineers familiar with lubri cating problems, attending a two day meeting at the College, today witnessed a newly developed lub rication system that will enable high flying airplanes to go even higher—up 20,000 feet more. Knowing that ordinary lubrica tion systems fail in altitude be cause of low barometric pressure (which at 40,000 feet is only one sixth of that at sea-revel) repre sentatives of almost all the na tion’s major airplane and engine manufacturers as well as the Ar my, Navy and government came to the Diesel Laboratory to see the new system demonstrated. The new system is known as the S-S system after the men who jointly developed it—Dr. P. H. Schweitzer, professor of engineer ing research at the College, and L. P. Sharpies, president of the Sharpies Corp., Philadelphia. The two delivered the paper yesterday afternoon explaining the system. Later, the actual workings of the system were demonstrated by means of transparent equipment. The following advantages are claimed for the new system: (1) It raises the lubrication ceiling by 10 to 20,000 feet; (2) It is lighter and perhaps simpler than the con ventional system because it uses a plain tank instead of a hopper tank and a much smaller size tubing, between the tank and pressure pump. The deaerator and eductor are simple arid light; (3) It permits location of the oil tank at almost ariy part of the plane; (4) Diluent can be intro duced into the circulating oil sys tem without diluting the oil in the tank; (5) The air is eliminated from the oil before the cooler, when the oil is hot. The efficiency of the oil cooler is thereby im proved and the likelihood of over foaming is reduced.
