Parachute Team Scores National Jumping Victory

The Harvard Parachute Club walked away with top honors in the annual Intercollegiate Parachute Championship at Orange, Mass., yesterday. Harvard's two teams took first and second place out of 14 college units. Senior Bob Thompson was second in the individual accuracy category.

The results of this year's meet came as a shock since the Crimson second team of John Leibacher, William Bacon, and Jack Lawrence with a total of 60 jumps between its members defeated a number of highly favored opponents, in particular the first team, a 600 jump unit. The first unit includes Nickolas Soutter, Bob Thompson, and Dave Wigner.
