Against the Williams tight defensive formation, nearly an eight-man line, Ravenel exercised the quarterback option often, opening up the defense for quick slash or dive plays. He ran effectively, scoring three of the Crimson's five touchdowns on 20, 25, and 30 yard rollout runs around end. And to cap off his virtuoso performance, Ravenel showed flashes of an improved passing technique that will make him an even greater threat this fall...
...fullback Chuck Reed, tackled hard and often. Reed also intercepted an astray Williams pass and ran effectively on offense. Big Chet Boulris showed bursts of power and speed that would carry him five yards with two tacklers hanging on grimly; he scored the Crimson's third touchdown on a dive through left tackle midway through the second period...
...wrinkled black tights and shapeless pink top. Teacher Rambert would roam the practice room correcting ("Long the arms"), scolding ("You use your leg like a mop"), occasionally doing exuberant cart wheels across the floor. Still as exuberant as ever, she now celebrates each birthday by doing a "fish dive" into the arms of the nearest partner...
...Revelle suspects that the trenches may be part of the mechanism by which continents grow. The first step, he thinks, is for a slow current in the earth's plastic mantle to start flowing horizontally and then curve downward (see diagram). Where it makes the dive, it drags down a strip of the crust, forming a V-bottomed trench which after many millions of years fills with sediment. Eventually the downward current in the mantle stops flowing. Since the mantle rock at its sides is heavier, it moves in, forcing upward the dragged-down crust and the sediments...
...live in the depths of the ocean are still only slightly known, and they may include the famed sea serpents of salty folklore. Sea-serpent sightings have diminished of late, but Revelle thinks this may be because fast, noisy, modern ships make poor platforms for serpent sighting. Sperm whales dive for gigantic squid up to 50 ft. long that live at great depths and have never been captured by man. Why should not the squid have companions down there...
