...even hide there any more, pal - at least not at the University of Pennsylvania. John McGinn, an old Penn coxswain and now a scientist in General Electric's laboratories at Valley Forge, Pa., has invented an electronic gizmo that enables Penn Coach Joseph Burk to tell at a glance in practice which of his oarsmen are pulling their weight - and which aren't. Attached to the oarlocks, miniature dynamometers measure the pull on each oar, flash the results on a board of 32 lights - four for each crewman.

There was a broad hint, though, that he just might be dealing with the press. "He will be at the service of the President, and if he needs to play first or second or third base, I hope he can do it," Johnson told reporters. "I don't want...
...weeks ago, at the most important meet of the indoor season-the National A.A.U. championship at Albuquerque-the 17-ft. barrier was finally broken. But not by Pennel. By his 19-year-old roommate, pal and protégé, Bob Seagren...
