Material covered by the above Technical Memoranda is briefly 

 described in the foregoing paragraphs (I to VIII) on Research Progress, 

 except for Technical Memorandum No. 106. That report was prepared at 

 the Wave Research Laboratory of the Institute of Engineering Research 

 at the University of California as a result of work partially sponsored 

 by the National Science Foundation. Because of its applicability to 

 the research and investigation program of the Beach Erosioa Board, the 

 report was published in the Board's technical memoranda series. It 

 presents the results of model studies performed to investigate forces 

 of breaking waves on piles located on a sloping beach. A suitable 

 dynamometer developed for these tests is described in the report.
