...similarity, Boeing's new SST design differs in some ways from the one advanced by Lockheed. Boeing's delta wing will not be swept back quite so dramatically as that of the Lockheed model, a fact that should make the B-2707 slightly more efficient at subsonic speeds, slightly less so at its maximum cruise speed of 1,800 m.p.h. And while Lockheed planned to build its plane without a horizontal tail, the Boeing version will have a relatively conventional tail configuration...
...picture, obviously, is not completely black. Yovicsin immediately took to scrambling players and positions, and has achieved four successful switches. Last year's top freshman ground gainer, Pete Varney, who has speed and good hands to go with his redoubtable frame (6'2", 245 lbs.) moves to end, where he will start. However, Varney's departure and Szaro's injury--a sprained ankle suffered only three days into the practice season--leave Harvard with only two outstanding halfbacks, Captain Vic Gatto and Ray Hornblower, where they once had four. The injury to Szaro, a football player considered to have...
...rear deck and the long hood that is fast becoming a Detroit cliche. Mustang, the car that inspired the look, is becoming fast, period. Next year's "Mach 1" model will be able to live up to the name of its "Cobra Jet Ram-Air V8" engine. Top speed: 150 m.p.h.-plus...
...fenders trying to get in or out), or a garage (where a slam-bang attendant will take care of the fender smashing). At long last, a few entrepreneurs have begun approaching parking on the premise that it ought to be carried out with a certain amount of speed and efficiency...
Underground Future. In Manhattan, another type of automated garage, aptly called Speed-Park, is in operation. Invented by Rumanian-born Engineer Mihai Alimanestianu and built by Otis Elevator, it is designed to make the most of parking-space profits, which range from $500 to $2,000 a year per car space, depending on location. Speed-Park uses a computer-controlled moving elevator platform to whisk a car to one of eight levels, where hydraulic machinery shovels the auto into an empty stall. Total time for the cycle: 30 seconds. The system is by no means inexpensive; a one-elevator setup...
