'U' Solar Car team
finishes 17th in race
From staff reports
While the destination of the
University's solar car team was the
sunny state of Florida, the sun did
not light the way for the 10-day
journey from Washington, D.C. to
Orlando, Fla.
Throughout Sunrayce '99, the
nation's largest solar car competi-
tion, Maizeblaze, the University's
solar car, raced under almost con-
stant rain.
Last week, Maizeblaze crossed
the finish line at Epcot at the Walt
Disney World Resort, placing 17th
out of the 29 student-built cars.
The winner of the race, Solar
Miner II, the entrant from the
University of Missouri at Rolla,
completed the 1,300 mile journey in
56 hours 16 minutes and 44 seconds,
travelling at 25 miles per hour.
The University, which finished
the race 23 hours behind Missouri,
suffered many time penalties for
relying on the car's support trailer
instead of its own power.
If the team is able to secure
enough funds from sponsors,
Maizeblaze will compete in the
World Solar Challenge held in
Australia this fall, an event in which
previous University teams have
competed.

At its birth in 1891, the building
was called Newberry Hall and it
became the official meeting hall/

Association.

1937, the building was renamed forUin

Most recently, the museum has ren-
ovated the front of the building to
accommodate a new access ramp.
The ramp, which was made of
materials that match the Kelsey's orig-
inal stone, allows the building to con-
