...leave, we embarrass the entire Admissions Office, and what is more important, face the unpleasant prospect of building a new team from scratch while suffering a series of humiliating defeats at the hands of every other Ivy League team.

A totally different method of using tidal energy is to "harness" the powerful ebb-and-flow movement of the tides. Three important projects are already under way to accomplish this-at Passamoquody Bay (see p. 31) inlet of the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia; at Sudbury on the Severn, Eng. .and at Aber-Vrach on the Brittany coast. At all three places there are long, narrow estuaries, into which tides rush with enormous energy. Water turbines, set in dams...
