...through the slalom course. A few even tried the 30-meter jump, which later this month will be used by Olympic hopefuls.

Friedman, a bit of a scrapper himself, ran out the last two sets, 6-2, 8-6, for Harvard's fourth win. Brian Davis (6) edged Roger Gutner...

His zest for contours dates back to his student days at the University of Pennsylvania, where he watched architecture students make models of shaped canvas.
