Radcliffe made a poor showing, led by Francine Gonick, Leslie Taft, and Willene Jones at minus 30. The Faculty showed up the Cliffies, led by a surprisingly strong showing from Yu Chi Ho, associate professor of Engineering and Applied Mathematics. Working out of the Aiken Computation Laboratory, the Faculty Cup recipient was off target only 26 times, and presented an incisive essay...

Author Lin Yu-tang describes a passenger in a crowded bus triumphantly settling into the only empty seat-the driver's-and refusing to give it up, even though it obviously means that the bus will go nowhere...

The troopers sang Chinese versions of Dixie and raided Nationalist camps on feast days in order...

Benson Jr., Gordon McKay Professor of Mechanical Engineering, offered a summer course in Control of Dynamic Systems. They invited Howard Raiffa, professor of Business Administration, to give a guest lecture, and discovered that his techniques were not very different from their...
