HARVARD OPPOSES WEST POINT IN MATH CONTEST

As a reply to a challenge issued by the United States Military Academy a committee headed by J. L. Coolidge '95, professor of Mathematics, is assembling a team of 10 or 15 undergraduates to meet a picked group of West Pointers in an examination in Analytic Geometry and Calculus late in May.

At a meeting held in Lowell House Common Room yesterday which was attended by 17 members of Mathematics 2, it was decided to divide the group into two teams of ten each for the present. These teams will be coached by D. V. Widder '20, associate professor of Mathematics, and Marston Morse, professor of Mathematics. The first elimination examination will be held in Sever 24 at 2 o'clock on Thursday, March 16, and the second on Tuesday, March 28, at the same time. The examiner will be a person connected with neither institution.

Professor Morse's team will be composed of: Lester Arnow '34, E. M. Cook '35. J. B. Duffy '35, H. C. Epstein '34, J. P. Farquhar '35, A. O. Lindstrum '35, Leonard Raum '35, H. E. Robbins '35, and H. P. Sheen '35.

Professor Widder's team will be: Jesiah Derby '36, R. M. Fisher '35, E. F. Gardner '35, J. J. Gianino 2E.S., V. B. Glunts '35, M. L. Hoffman '35, T. J. Keary '35, Julius Litter '35, William Maltzman '35, and David Rome '35.
