Students inspect battleship

The student branch of the University of Southern California accompanied Professor Biegler on an inspection trip to the Battleship U. S. S. Colorado, Dec. 17th, as guests of Lieutenant Commander Leighton, Chief Engineer Officer. Forty-six engineers took advantage of this opportunity to investigate thoroughly the turbo-generator power plant of this electrically driven ship. The U. S. S. Colorado being the latest electrically driven dreadnaught, offered the students an extensive field to study the latest developments and applications of the principles of marine power plant construction and operation.
