Though the winners of 20 of the 24 individual events are Californian or California-trained, the widest smile on the West Coast was on the face of a gray-haired Hoosier. Indiana University's redoubtable Dr. Jim Counsilman will have Hall, Kinsella, Spitz and Stamm swimming for his N.C.A.A. champion team next winter. As Dr. Jim, who coached U.S. Olympic champs in Tokyo in 1964, sums it up: "I wouldn't want to coach another country in the 1972 Olympics...

...always had close relations with Chevrolet despite the company's official non-racing stand. This year Hall replaces Penske as the official non-official Chevrolet factory team. Hall is making his return to driving following a serious crash at Las Vegas in November of 1968. He is teamed with Californian Ed Leslie, who is doing the best racing of his career at the age of 48. Jerry Thompson and Tony DeLorenzo are also running Chevrolet Camaros, with sponsorship from the Owens-Corning Fiberglass people. They have not been as fast to date as Hall's cars...
