(By The Associated Press)
Cambridge, Dec. 12, —
Counting stars, sorting mu
seum skeletons and collect
ing bills were among the
tasks performed last year
by 181 Harvard college
students who earned a to
tal of $39,283.79, or an av
erage of $217 apiece, under
the temporary employment
plan to help needy students
affected by the depression.
These figures are reported
by Russell T. Sharpe, em
ployment secretary.
British Make An
Autogiro Test On
Aircraft Carrier
(Continued from Pace One)
wind, and this was what
was done. Clearly, such an
artificial wind can never be
high, for the speed of the
natural wind has to be sub
traded from the speed of
the carrier, but it is amply
sufficient for an autogiro.
“Many advantages could
be secured if aircraft could
be brought back to a car
rier and landed without
the carrier being forced to
steam into wind and, with
out it, being forced to work
up a high speed. For one
thing, the maneuvering
scope of the carrier would
be increased greatly, and it
would become less of a
drag upon the rest of the
fleet.
“At the present moment
I gather that those who
have studied the use of
aircraft from ships do not
believe that the autogiro
could ever entirely replace
the ordinary fixed wing
plane, but they believe that
for certain special duties,
it would be of immense
value.
“The tentaitve idea is!
that aircraft carriers would
carry about half a dozen
specially fitted autogiros in
addition to their comple
ment of airplanes. For
work at night the autogiros
might offer special advan
tages.”

Sat ?f ictory ests ha * just
been made of a new vpe
naval training, piano ai the
Philach phia naval air'" aft
f ..ary, the first airc’X't
completed here under the
conditions of the Vinson
Trammel act.
The new ship will replace
obsolescent training plan
es now in use at the train
ing base at Pensacola, Fla.,
and resembles more close
ly the service scout or ob
servation plane than the
conventional training craft.
Lieut. H. P. Becker, of
the marine corps, official
test pilot for the factory,
put the ship through a ser
ies of maneuvers including
zooms, loops, dives, rolls,
wingovers and spins. He
expressed himself as high
ly pleased with the craft’s
performance.
The tested plane is the
first of 86 being built by
the navy under the new ap
propriation.
The aircraft factory was
built when this country en
tered the war but was turn
ed over to the navy to be
used as an experimental sta
tion after the Armistice.
