Summary
Pathe synopsis: ... don’t toy around with the idea that research has dampened schoolboy enthusiasm. At the Hydraulics Research Station, they build scale models of ships and harbours and can even simulate winds and tides. It looks like a schoolboy’s paradise, yet here in the heart of Berkshire, messing about with boats and playing with fire is a scientific reality.
