Comparative scores would seem to back their contention. Yale split with Princeton, winning 3 to 2 after bowing by a 3-1 score; the Crimson tied the Tigers, 5 to 5. In the last Dartmouth game Yale lost by a 5-4 count, the varsity by 4 to 3. The Elis upset B.U. by a 5-2 margin, while Harvard was held...

...fluctuations in 1958 Beta Two ... seem to suggest ... semi-regular changes in the atmospheric density such as could be caused by variable solar radiation--for which one would expect to find occasional periodicities of the order of 27 days and possibly a correlation with geomagnetic activity...

Evidence which would seem to back up this theory was that the 27-day period of rotation of the sun (with its spots and flares thought to emit charged particles) corresponded roughly with the periods indicated by the satellites, and that the sharp increase in acceleration at the end of August was also two weeks of strong geomagnetic activity. The problem that remained was to find some traceable phenomenon of the sun that could be compared with the daily fluctuations in the acceleration of the satellites (by this time all five satellites showed the same acceleration characteristics, which occurred simultaneously...

...parietal hours can wait. Other matters seem more urgent. Once the merger is effective Comstock girls should be allowed entrance to all meals in the House (with some exceptions, perhaps, over breakfast). This is but a natural extension of the moves already taken, and seems highly desirable, especially for girls with labs and sections in the early afternoon. Of course corresponding privileges should be granted the Winthrop...

...three-semester program would seem to be one effective way of organizing such a program. Preferably the first semester would consist of mathematics and could thus be skipped by anyone who had completed this equivalent. Such an introductory semester of math might give the rudimentary concepts of functions, calculus, and the limit--a requisite for understanding the idea of approximation and measurement. With a semester of math under his belt the student could continue on to a semester of basic physics--perhaps mechanics and thermo-dynamics--to get the fundamental concepts of energy...
