...Yardlings on the basis of weight and experience should have the edge over Exeter, but the Academy team has already played one game with Tilton, having beaten them 6-0, so the outcome of the encounter remains a hard one to predict...
...conflict between individual liberty and the general welfare; and this problem has never been solved except through compromise. Moreover, only through general education can any solution be feasible, for the most perfect theoretical plan can be wrecked on the rocks of public indifference. It is safe to predict that the efforts of the committee, even if not wholly successful, will go far toward solving what they rightfully regard as "one of the major perplexities of our civilization...
...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 the motion of the wind. Next practical step would be designing of a wing for more speed, safety, lift. Application of the "ergodic" theorem has proved very useful, said Dr. Wiener, rushing into a mass of detail so abstruse that...
Neither RCA nor Inventor Zworykin will predict the specific use to which this system will be put. They describe it as a "forward looking" invention which might be used to carry television programs to a relay station for rebroadcasting, or else for wireless telegraph communication. The equally forward-looking FCC is already nursing a headache over the prospective problem of assigning ultra-high-frequency wave lengths when each television station needs a slice of the radio spectrum six times as big as the total band of kilocycles now occupied by all U.S. broadcasting stations. This idea of an ultra-high...
...observer was ready last week to predict that the commission would place its approval on the original partition scheme. In fact, the New York Times's Near Eastern correspondent, Joseph M. Levy, went on record with the statement that the turbulent conditions in Palestine had convinced the British that two far-reaching changes must be made in the partition plan: 1) The proposed Jewish State must be reduced from 2,500 square miles to some 400, confined to the Sharon Valley, whose population is about 95% Jewish. 2) The Arab State idea must be abandoned. "Highest British authorities here...
