...zero weather, handling a camera weighing over 100 pounds, taking pictures of the Stadium and the Houses; then returning to develop and print their negatives in the Geographical building--all this is just in the day's work for the Harvard student who takes "Geography 36," the course in Aerial Photography given by the Geographical department. Four United States Army officers, all connected with Wright Field, in Dayton, Ohio, and representing the Air and Engineering Corps, have charge of this unique course, presented in the second half-year...
...idea of the course is to give both theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of aerial photography, with the added thrill of really flying. Lectures are given on four phases of the work, and this theoretical knowledge is then made use of in actual photographing. Captain Albert W. Stevens, of the Air Corps, will give the first series of talks on the chemistry of developing and printing the negatives; from there, the embryo fliers will advance to the interpretation of photographs taken from the air. To an inexperienced observer, aerial photographs are either wholly or partly unintelligible...
Last year, this course was somewhat handicapped by the lack of adequate laboratory equipment, which was not installed until late in the spring. For its size, this laboratory is one of the most thoroughly equipped aerial photography laboratories in the United States. It consists of seven rooms in the basement of the Geographical building. Two of these are used for the restitution of photographs taken with the 5-lens camera; four are given over to the processes of developing, printing, and enlarging, as well as for copying mosaics; and the last room is used for loading the cameras. This room...
...news stories that never, never could have happened. Citizen & Mrs. Hoover leave the White House, but Mrs. Hoover (acidic Helen Broderick) does not depart without telling Dolly Gann what she thinks of her, nor does she forget to strip the place of spoons, portraits, electric toasters and the radio aerial. John D. Rockefeller (Clifton Webb) totters after his son with a knife when he learns the family owns Radio City. Mahatma Gandhi (Mr. Webb in a sheet) plans a vaudeville act with Aimee Semple McPherson, in which the two sing a duet and execute an off-to-Buffalo. Mary...
...first score. Wells placekicked the extra point. The Jayvees took the ball on their own 30 and following several unsuccessful attempts to dent the Varsity forward wall, gave it up as a bad job and punted short to their 40. Within scoring territory, the Varsity opened up with an aerial attack and Nazro snagged a Wells pass for 20 yards. Lane accounted for the second tally on a sweep from the 12-yard line...
