...dive this year has been much weaker than usual. However, Coach Petersen has developed three spring-board men, who have never dived in competition before, into divers who may be counted on as strong contenders for points.

When she headed for the bottom there was always a strong chance that she might not level off at the right depth, and "a submarine but momentarily out of control may sink in a few seconds to a depth where she crushes under the pressure...
