Although the International Swimming Federation will not accept medley tank records, the Tiger trio nevertheless swam the fastest mixed 12 laps in the history of water sports, making Intercollegiate and National A.A.U. marks.

However, if Jim Curwen swims anchor for the Crimson, the Tigers will be pressed to record-lowering time, as they were the night of the Princeton-Harvard meet when Cummin, Berizzi, and Curwen made the Tiger trio lower the world's record, unofficially, since Van de Wehe missed turn...
