...opposition, the Crimson will throw up Captain Chouteau Dyer, who has an even chance of finishing anywhere from first to third in the sprints, and a pair of divers, who should be able to edge the Elis...

This not only leaves the Crimson relay record straggling some ten seconds behind, but bodes ill for Dyer in the 50 and 100 yard freestyle races...
These sprints must be termed a tossup, and should provide the main excitement of the meet, perhaps even a world record. Against Brown last week, Dyer turned in a 49.4 second 100, which is better than any Eli clocking this season, and only 0.5 seconds off the world record...
Ironically, the worst split on the relay was recorded by Aubrey, supposedly the Elis leading sprinter and holder of the present Yale record at 49.0. It seems likely, however, that Kiphuth will throw his ace, and perhaps Armstrong, against Dyer, for he makes a practice of loading the events in which he expects tough competition. John Lind or Ron Mischner will have the dubious pleasure of swimming in the same race...
...yard freestyle should see pretty much the same personnel and should be equally exciting. Aubrey turned in a 22.1 to tie for first place in the nationals last year, and must be slightly favored over Dyer whose Harvard record is 22.3, and over Armstrong, who did a 22.4 earlier this season.
