Dwight Le Merton Bolinger August 18, 1907 February 23, 1992 was an American linguist and Professor of Romance Languages and Literatures at Harvard University . He began his career as the first editor of the Among the New Words feature for American Speech. As an expert in Spanish language Spanish , he was elected president of the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese in 1960. He was known for the support and encouragement he gave younger scholars and for his hands on approach to the analysis of human language. His work touched on a wide range of subjects, including semantics , Intonation linguistics intonation , phonesthesia , and the politics of language. His 1971 book The Phrasal Verb in English , heretofore a subject of concern primarily to teachers of English as a foreign language, brought the need for a scientific treatment of phrasal verbs to the attention of many linguists. His 1977 work Meaning and Form was instrumental in establishing the principle that a difference in form implies a difference in perceived Meaning linguistic meaning . He was elected president of the Linguistic Society of America in 1972 and awarded the Orwell Award by the National Council of Teachers of English in 1981 for Language The Loaded Weapon , a book that inspired other linguists to restore a role for the application of common sense in the study of language. Stanford linguist Geoffrey Nunberg has described Bolinger as one of the most distinguished semanticists of the mid twentieth century, pointing to his uncanny ear for the nuances of words.

James Dwight July 14, 1852, France July 14, 1917 was an American tennis player. Sometimes called the Founding Father of American Tennis, James Dwight won the first recorded tournament in the U. S. and probably in the world, before the first Wimbledon Championships played in August 1876 on the property of his uncle, William Appleton, at Nahant, MA. After graduating from Harvard in 1874, he traveled in Europe, saw the new sport of lawn tennis being played, and brought the necessary equipment home. Then he persuaded his uncle to mark out a court on his smooth front lawn so he could play a game with his cousin, Fred Sears. That first attempt was disappointing. Dwight later wrote, . . . we voted the whole thing a fraud and put it away. About a month later, they tried again, as a way of passing time on a rainy day. This time, tennis seemed much more interesting, even though they were wearing rubber boots and raincoats. The 1876 tournament was a neighborhood affair it was played on handicap on a round robin basis. There were two players on scratch, James Dwight and Fred D Sears Jr., each of whom played against 11 other players until a final between them. Rackets scoring was used ...
