General note

Photo caption from published version of 73-02-12_001: "IT'S NO YOLK - Systems Design students practice aerial bombing with specially designed packages containing three eggs. The project forced students to design capsules of materials available in stores for less than $3. Only six of the 72 eggs dropped were broken on Thursday. The cartons were dropped four storeys into a target area, the winner being the most accurate and lightest construction. The winning design weighted only one ounce although the payload weighed six times that amount. The two-day test involved 320 students."
