...eight-oared shell itself is colored 67 per cent Crimson. Brothers Mike '71 and Cleve '69 Livingston will row at bow and 2, Frits '69 and Bill '71 Hobbs are at 5 and 6, Terry, a 175-pound metronome will stroke, and Paul Hoffman '69, who enraged stolid U.S. Olympic officials with his support of the black athlete protest in 1968, will be coxswain. Two other Harvard oarsmen, lightweight stroke Tony Brooks and heavyweight captain Dave Sawyier, will go to Munich either as members of the four-with-cox or as spares...
...after hot dogs, the Square offers two restaurants devoted to them. Newly opened (and prone to flooding on rainy days) is the Underdog (6 Bow St.), which has kosher dogs with assorted garnishes. The Underdog also has good bagels with cream cheese and lox. Zum Zum (9 Brattle St.), part of a small East Coast chain, serves knackwurst, bratwurst and bauernwurst, with very tasts potato salad.

At supersonic speeds, the swept back wings create noticeable pressure on each other; Jones likens the interference effect to that created when two motorboats speed alongside each other and waves from the bow of one boat slam into the hull of the other. When the wing is pivoted in the Jones design, however, such interference is reduced, just as when one of the boats pulls ahead of the other. Moreover, the aircraft's efficiency is further improved by simultaneously rotating the tail plane...
...Harvard's heavyweights used a Swiss-made Stampfli shell, rigged German-style, with the stroke and bow oars on the port side. By this Spring, almost everybody was using foreign shells with German rigs. Everybody, that is, except Navy coach Carl Ullrich. Ullrich's boys use a standard, American Pocock shell, rigged in the standard fashion, with standard American oars...
