It is a big order for only 34 men but no one seems to mind. ' t The Division is divided into two parts: communications and radar. Each man is assigned to one type of equip- ment for a period of three months, after which he is transferred to another piece of gear. This continues until the man is familiar with all the equipment aboard. Blood brothers of the electricians, the tech's aboard can be seen fighting stack gas high on the antennas. Never let it be be said these boys donlt get a charge out of their work.

Main control is the heart and guts of the Princeton. Here is the nerve center where bridge orders, speeds ordered by the Officer-of-the-Deck, are answered and executed. Main control, vital to the ship's operation, is the hub of the M Division. Originating from this focal point, their watches and working stations are organized and controlled. and four 1,250 kilowatt turbo-genera- tors, these lll men and three ofhcers keep constant watch on dials. Lubri- cating oil must be kept at the proper level, if not, whirling blades will over- heat, thrust bearings will bind and the speed and the operational efhciency of the Princeton will diminish. When wind velocities are low and the aircraft's bomb loads heavy, the M Division will make the wind necessary for the launch. only one of the four , All E First Row! A. T. Ribrzicky, B. A.
