Harlowmen In Top Shape...
...Crimson team goes into the game with every man on the Varsity "red-shirt" squad in top shape, and Harlow has declared that he will dress several "white-shirts" also. Among the "whites" who stand good chances of going out to tame the Bears are Joe Gardella, third-string bucker, and Gene Levett, second left...
...extent of the fire hazard in the shape of fallen timber is shown by the almost total loss of the 2,300 acre Harvard forest in Petersham where between five and ten million board feet of lumber are down. In an attempt to preserve the safety of lives and property in this region by prompt emergency measures Ward Shepard '10 Director of the Harvard Forest, is in Boston today to confer with Harry Hopkins, head of the W. P. A., and state officials...
...order the most startling events of the last two weeks have been: (1) the shifting of Cliff Wilson back to his old post of blocking back, undoubtedly due to the fact that chief Boston is not in top shape to handle the position alone; (2) the loss of Rick Hedblom, second center last year who was slated to become a first string guard this year, due to injuries; (3) the three-cornered fight between Ben Smith, Mike Cohen, and Joe Gardella for the bucking back post, so capably filled last year by Vernon Struck...
...around airplane wings. For example, harmonic analysis makes it possible to measure the varying speed at different points in a wind tunnel, to plot these speeds on a graph and reduce complicated wind motions to a series of simple, understandable oscillations. Thus mathematicians hope to predict how the shape of an airplane wing will affect the motion of the wind. Next practical step would be designing of a wing for more speed, safety, lift. Application of the "ergodic" theorem has proved very useful, said Dr. Wiener, rushing into a mass of detail so abstruse that not all his colleagues could...
