Is That So? By EUGENE BURNS Ranger-Naturalist Aboard the Nautilus This first nuclear - powered vessel, deadliest weapon afloat, is pow ered by a core of uranium not much larger than a golf ball and yet sufficient to take this comparatively large ship 60,000 miles many of these miles in excess of 20 miles an hour. Per cubic inch this submarine has more scientific machinery packed into it than any other warship outside of its sister ship, the Seawolf. The cost of the Nautilus, not counting the re actor, was in excess of $50,000, 000. That figure has now been trimmed at $30,000,000. Attempts to'utilize submarines for warfare goes back to the earliest writings in history: Herodotus, back in 460 B.C., mentions attempts to build sub mersibles. George Washington endorsed the use of a submarine built by David Bushell at Saybrook, Conn., against the British. Fol lowing the "Turtle's" attack on a British man of war, General Washington discussed the poten tial use of submarines in a letter to Thomas Jefferson. However it was not until the Civil War that a submarine was RACE TRACK FROZEN Chicago HP) Saturday's nine-race card at Sportsman's park was cancelled because of the frozen condition of the track and the same program was re scheduled for Monday, in the first quarter.

The Confederate boat "Hunley" sank the Union frigate Housatonic which was on blockade station in Charleston, S. C, Feb. 17, 1864. Caught In Nef Many ships, including the Nau tilus, have been caught in fish ing vessels' nets. The Nautilus towed the fishing vessel several miles before the net was disen gaged. Besides this mishap, the Nau tilus has been "sunk." During war games off the Cali fornia coast during the past sum mer, she performed heroically. But at the conclusion she was "sunk." The ship's executive of ficer, Lieut. Warren R. Cobean, told me that while the Nautilus was surfaced, a helicopter from one of the surface ships dropped a package for the skipper and with it performed something which they could not do during exercises. The skipper opened the package and there was a blinding flash as a flashbulb ex ploded. Attached was a note from the anti-submarine ship which read: "Finally got you!"
