Pusey said that the University could not obtain full possession of the yards for at least two years--it will be that long before the MTA completes the transferal of its switching and storing facilities--indicating that if the property had not been sold to Harvard within that time the University would build elsewhere...
...Almost twice as many degrees were awarded last June as in 1924 - a total of 3,124 as compared with 1,671.

Bratt has placed a canard-a nose wing with adjustable flaps-in front of the Viggen's main delta wing. The canard will help the Viggen make tighter turns-especially at supersonic speeds-and will slow it rapidly for landings...
