At 12.35 yesterday hundreds of members of the University saw the Navy dirigible Shenandoah, the largest aircraft in the world, pass over Cambridge on its 700 mile cruise from Lakehurst, New Jersey, to central New England. The huge silver airship was first seen from Harvard Square as it floated over East Cambridge. At the time the Shenandoah was reported to be logging 58 knots, or considerable more than 60 miles an hour. By 12.50 o'clock it had passed out of sight beyond Belmont.
