Dominating play throughout the entire game, the varsity hockey team recaptured second place in the Ivy League by edging Yale at the Arena Saturday, 2-1. The Crimson would have run the score higher but for some classy goal-tending by Gerry Jones...
...statistics in this book therefore tell us little about academic freedom--the announced topic. But the study is nevertheless valuable for what it tells us about higher education itself. Viewed not as a study of academic freedom, but as a portrait of American Colleges and their professors, The Academic Mind is a most important book...

More radical but also more logical is an attack through the thalamus, part of the central nervous system which relays many pain impulses to the higher perception centers.

Added to a victory over Yale next Wednesday, two wins would give the varsity a good shot at fourth place, much higher than was expected at the season's outset...
...first problem that had to be met was the inability of the computer programs to keep up with the satellite in calculating the orbit. Preliminary plans expected the satellite to be higher up than it was and so did not account for the rapid changes in the orbit's elements, caused by its encounter with the earth's atmosphere. These variations in velocity nearly drove the mathematicians crazy, for they showed no apparent regularity. Now it is know that if a satellite encounters atmosphere its angular momentum is decreased, and this produces a decrease altitude and a decrease in period...
