The temperature in each room is regulated by dampers worked by compressed air, which in turn are governed by electricity, so that the temperature is controlled automatically and kept constant. A large blower in the basement delivers air to the different rooms at the rate of 24,000 cubic feet a minute, and is the amount this air is heated which determines the temperature.

...kick again. Trafford returned it, but although Channing fumbled badly, Janeway fell on the leather and kept the play for Princeton. Black rushed a little way, but neither Cowan or Channing gained materially and the ball went to Harvard. Saxe and Lee were tackled where the stood, in their turn, and the ball went to Princeton.
