-. , l Mathematics aut mechanics HE Naval Academy and Mathematics are synonymous terms: at least, so it seems for the first two and a half years. The Plebe is started at the bottom, rushed through all the various branches which have the slightest claim to being elementary, and the table set for the delightful invention of Sir Isaac Newton, known as Calculus. Truly Youngster Year is a nightmare- Differentials, Integrals, Analytical Geometry and what not.

It is well that the Plebes do not have to grapple with this Department, for, were such the case, we shiver to contemplate the additional casualties to be 1 noted on each class roll. lf there has been an exam in this Department in the last three years, on which the marks have not had to be raised, it has escaped the notice of the Board of Supervisors in Smoke Hall. As we near the end, however, we feel that our struggles have not all been in vain, for most of us have learned the difference between a motor and a generator and we are aware of the existence of an intangible something called A.C. 25
