...followed at the finish line by Dave Wilson, a newcomer to cross country racing in 21:42. The rest of the first twenty at the finish line were as follows in the order listed: Jim McLaughlin, Bob Jay, Dias, Roswell Brayton, Jean Clark, Pen Tuttle, Dick Wing, Cy Martin, Ted Noone, Johnny Wells, Dave Simboli, Bob Burns, McElligott, Lewis, Sopka, George Heywood, Griffith, and Charlie Meyer...
That material appears to have arrived in the 1942 crop. It is doubtful if there are any future All-Americans under Skip Stahley's wing, but the A squad is showing remarkable ability as a whole in practice sessions...
Most encouraging to the track and cross country coach, Mikkola, is the improved running of a trio of upperclassmen, Simboli, Meyer, and Wing, who haven't had previous experience on the track...
...others, that he would make a wonderful tailback. Provided, of course, that he could ever muster time enough to get into good condition again and buck up nerve enough to report for practice. It is no secret to the Vag that he probably could tuck that pigskin under his wing and run like hell for a touchdown against most any opposition. And he's a pretty keen fellow when it comes to calling plays, too, for that matter. Mix them up--run, pass, kick, fight for that extra yard--keep the old legs pumping all the time...
...many ways could such a string vibrate? Today the problem has taken a more practical turn. Mathematicians want to separate complex waves and oscillations into simpler movements. Chief use for harmonic analysis is study of the problems presented by the whirls and eddies of air 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...
