So she's proud to bear the name of the U.S.S. Sable. She's the second aircraft carrier to be used as a practice aircraft carrier "somewhere in the Great Lakes." The ship is now taking on her' crew and will go into active service "in the very near future," a spokesman for the navy department said. Converted from the Greater Buf-i falo, a sidewheeler that cost $3,500,-000 when new, the carrier has a 500--foot runway and "resembles, in every way, a regulation carrier," the navy spokesman declared. She will eventually, the spokesman said, operate out of Chicago, as is her sister-carrier, the U.S.S. Wr^yerjnp The pilots will practice Approaches and take-offs on her flat top; learn how to "come in" in groups, as they would on returning from battle; get the "feel" of life aboard a carrier and its special demands. "When they finish up," the navy said, "they'll be ready to go straight into action." Most of the practice carrier's crew will also "graduate," though some, in.the stokehold, will remain on the Sable for the duration of her service. The training period, it was stated, would average four months. . "Obviously," the navy spokesman said, "the best point about these inland training carriers is their protection from possible enemy attack. The Sable and Wolverine will not have to worry about interference in their training schedules."
