...machine, which is called the Product Integraph, opens the doors to important fields of research hitherto inaccessible. It was developed by Dr. Bush, who is Professor of Electric Power Transmission at M. I. T., in conjunction with a staff of research workers including F. G. Kear, H. I. Hazen, H. R. Stewart, and F. T. Gage. The work was begun several years ago with the object of filling the urgent need for a machine which would automatically solve problems of advanced electrical theory...
...foundation of the Integraph is a watthour meter of the same type as is commonly used in homes for recording electric power Integration is merely a mathematical way of expressing the sum of a series of numbers which vary according to a given equation. The mathematician, in using the machine to do away in an afternoon with months of calculating, plots equations on paper which is passed slowly under pointers in the 35-foot apparatus: Operators stationed along the length of the machine keep the pointers on the curves, and as these pointers move up and down, the power flowing...
Captain R. B. MacPhail, Dartmouth quarterback, and other members of the victorious Green football machine, attributed the failure of Harvard to capitalize its scoring opportunities to a lack of diversified offensive plays. When interviewed after the game last Saturday, MacPhail told a CRIMSON reporter that Harvard had tremendous power, but that it was not concentrated in the right channels for consistent scoring...
...game today, Dartmouth lacked co-ordination except in a few flashes and our scores came at those times," said MacPhail. "Harvard had power right up to the final whistle, and fought hard, but the ends were poor. With them out it was easy to make long runs. The line was wonderful, and your center played a great game...
...game, but the score was not counted, as the final whistle blew while the ball was in the air, and had not quite crossed the goal line. The brilliant rushes of Martino of Worcester was one of the features of the game. The Crimson cubs showed power and kept the ball in Worcester territory most of the time, but lack of coordinated playing prevented further scoring...
