After unexciting wins over Bowdoin and Brandeis, the varsity finally played a good game, but lost to powerful Holy Cross.

Even if it never does function properly, the narrow-angle camera alone will yield valuable weather information. But the scientists who interpret the cloud pictures will have to take special pains to identify the places around the earth that are covered by its Rhode Island-size snapshots...
