Question

(10[2])Swinomish people (10[1]-5[1])helped students from the University (10[1])of Washington practice (10[1])racing (10[2])these objects (10[1])before their 1936 (10[1]-5[3])Olympic gold medal. (10[3]-5[3])Protrusions for stability (10[2])were not included in the Native (-5[1])Californian “dugout” type (10[1])of these (10[2])objects. (10[2])For 10 points, Native Hawaiians used “outrigger” (10[1])examples of what seafaring vessels? (10[1]0[1])■END■ (10[12]0[2])
