Into Custody, Says Sheriff- Elect; Plans Special + Care in Juvenile Cases.
Elimination of “unnecessary arrests” was one of the|i
aims outlined by Sheriff-elect
Otto Petit today: as: ‘he begat
organizing his staff to take office Jan. 1. “By unnecessary arrests 1 mean those usually made in minor cases where later investigation reveals. that no ar-
rests should have Been made in the first place,” ‘he: said. He said deputies will. be trained to investigate all complaints and disputes at the scene of the: call and make adjustments without unwar‘ranted arrests that would be invalidated in the courts later. Outlines Child . Work Regarding juvenile offenders, the -gheriff-elect said he will have
deputies trained especially for the. ‘ delicate job of handling juveniles
“caught in law violations. “In this important work, my office will: co-operate with juvenile court in every case in order that no conflict may arise in handling boys and girls,” he said. Other things the public may expect in the sheriff's office during the next two years, according to Mr. Petit, include: +1, An SI-purpose ambulance car
that can’ ‘be ised for all emergencies to prevent seriously injured accident victims from lying on the highways until a hospital ambulance arrives, 2. A regular highway. patrol, using subpena servers in their spare time when additional officers are not available, 3. Expansion of the safety department with deputies trained in Bagels, dent prevention. 4. A continuous safety program in the schools outside the city, 5. Expansion ‘of first aid training among deputies in order that they can ably lead ciivlian units in rescue work in the event of disaster. Because of the manpower shortage, Mr. Petit said he will have to ask some of the present deputy
sheriffs serving under Sheriff ' Al
Feeney to stay on to help start his regime.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 13.—A ‘new star, or nova, brighter than. all but 10 stars in-all the heavens, has burst forth. and may be seen ‘in the early morning sky. It is somewhat brighter than first magnitude. This is the brightest nova since 1918 and is the most striking and unexpected of astronomical events. Discovered by an American -astronomer in Argentina, the brilliant new star will be known as Nova Puppis, because it is located in the constellation of Puppis, meaning the stern of the ship. oIt may become known as this Christmas star because one of ‘the explanations of. the star of Bethlehem is that it was such a
‘nova.
The new star was discovered the past week-end by Bernhard H. Daw-’ son of the University observatory at La Plata, Argentina. He is an American astronomer, born and educated in Michigan. News of the discovery was received at Harvard observatory, in a .brief telegram
of the ‘Argentine national observatory at Cordoba, Argentina. The constellation Puppis, in which the nova is located, is in the south-
November and crossing the meridian about 5 a. m. The nova is situated near the second-magnitude - star, Zeta Puppis, sometimes called Naos. But: the nova, according to Leon

New Star, Brighter Than All But 10 in Heavens, Is Found|
Campbell, recorder of the American association of variable star observ‘ers, outshines all stars in its vicinity, for on the morning of Armistice day it was of magnitude —0.8 (minus zero point eight). Those who can find Sirius can easily find the new star. Sirius; brightest star in the sky, rises after midnight in the southeast. An hour and a half later Nova Puppis rises, but much farther to the south. Sirius is in Canis Major, the constellation of the Big Dog, the south? ern part of which is a triangle of three second-magnitude stars... A line from Sirius through the triangle | proloriged about its own length will] end near the nova. The nova now in the skies may remain at its peak brightness for several weeks, or it may decline rapidly. Its behavior cannot be predicted exactly. Meanwhile, it greatly alters the appearance of: the sky in its vicinity. ’

The rat-a-tat-tat of the riveting hammer is therefore disappearing ‘ from the country’s shipyards. Rapid extension of the welding method is being made to the larger ships and is now in universal practice on smaller type vessels and Liberty ships. War Speeds New Way
War has speeded adoption of the
peace Mr. Arnott believes that the all-welded ship will hold her own except perhaps for the very latest types. Cracks have occasionally developed in welded ships. But tests show that such difficulties are due to unsuitable materials, use of the wrong welding sequence, of working in cold weather, especially when there has been a sudden drop of temperature. Scarcity of experienced welders ports. Government ~ and private schools and sponsored expansion of existing facilities. Use of automatic welding machines has also played a part in relieving the shortage of ‘welders, as well as saving time on|| jobs for which this method is fitted.
