THE MICHIGAN DAILY SWAIT r.I AIuANTS IN OF WAR A Ti IS TRARS FImCEs DRIVE 195,242 RIVETS ON ALL SEPTEMBER 13 AT HOG ISLAND BUT FIRST 20 HAVE BEEN HERE FOR SOME TIME Washington, Oct. 14. A drive for a ship-riveting record in an American shipbuilding plant is like a drive of the Yanks against the Hun lines in France. Both demand intensive prep- aration. Pershing's commanders at the front and John Wolf, builder of ships in the Hog Island yard are us- ing the same methods. That is how Wolf, the world's cham- pion general foreman ship riveter, set a new record with his gangs and drove 195,242 rivets in eight hours at the Hog Island yard on Friday, Sept. 13. Asked how he and his men did it, Wolf said: "Before the American troops over yonder make a drive on the Hun they] make careful preparations days in ad- vance. I follow the same principle in getting ready for a riveting drive. Secret to Rivet Success "What is the secret of the success of my gangs? Well it's as simple as the nose on your face. The first thing I do is to put my huskies next to the big idea in the shipbuilding game. I hammer it into their heads that every rivet they drive is equal to a stout nail into the coffin of that arch child murderer, the Kaiser. In other words, I make their part in this war game so real that they pound rivets like the boys over there pump machine guns. "To hit the bull's eye in a riveting d(ive, you've got to prepare for it like the Yanks arrange for a drive against the Huns. When General Pershing gets it into his head that he wants to give the Hun a good hard bump he takes a few thousand Ynk huskies back of the line, and puts them through a stiff course of sprouts in the way of intensive training. When the boys have completed the course they are as hard as tsteel nails and they can wae through anything. Boss Plans All Drives "I lined things up for my drive in much the same way. When things opened up I had the holes all reamed and the proper tools all in place. So when the drive started we had a whirl- wing, start, and the way we walked away from the other 9kngs was good to see. According to my way of figur- ing this thing. called morale is blamed important in any game. I don't care a rap whether it's soldiering or driv- ing rivets, you've got to have the boys mentally and physically up to snuff. I airn to keep my huskies standing right up on their toes most of the time. In the respect of keeping the boys in a fighting mood, I am aided by my boss riveter, Joe Diamond, who has been in the game for more than twenty years, and has worked in ship- yards all over the country. "Why, when the drive was, the hot- test even our superintendent, Walter Blandford, got the fever. lie chucked off his coat, grabbed a riveting ham- mer and drove 350 rivets. My hus- kies have the spunk and the ginger that counts." The record for the entire yard on that day was 195,242 rivets in eight hours, or thirty-eight rivets per hour per production gang. Wolf's gangs drove 19,037 rivets, or an average per hour, per gang of fifty-five rivets. Wolf is 58 years old, a seasoned shipbuilder of the old school, and fa- miliar with every turn and wrinkle of the shipbuilding game in the United States. In addition to being a compe- tent shipbuilder, he is a natural lead- erof men. Power of Tanks Admitted by Germans New York, Oct. 14.

ANN ARBOR HIGH SCHOOL TO HAVE MILITARY ORGANIZATION The high school cadet will be barred from the honor he enjoyed last year by wearing the uniform of an officer, and the gullible private and non-com will not be so easily fooled into think- ing he is saluting a commissioned man when it is only a high school youth. Nevertheless preparations are going on for a full-fledged military or- ganization at Ann Arbor high school again this year. There are two com- panies of rookies being rounded into reg'lar doughboys under the direction of F. E. Raymond, who was a lieu- tenant but received an honorable dis- charge from the army last winter. The uniforms for the cadets will be ordered this week and it is expected that the 100 students enlisted in the military course will be wearing khaki by November. The uniform this year will be such that the organization may be easily distinguished from other military branches. While the officer's hat is to be worn, the insignia with A. A. H. S. will be across the front in the form of d wreath. The confus- ing letters on the collar will be suc- ceeded by a button with the same in- signia on it as on the cap. No chev . o 0 0 na a i Y..
