Captain John Eusden of the Crimson looked far better, as he usually does, in the 100-yard sprint than he did in the 50. The century trial heat found him in a blanket finish with Ed Hall. Mass State notable, both men being clocked at 53.8. In the final, however, Hall turned on a little more steam to win in 52.6. This time Ammon, who had finished under the same blanket as Hall and Eusden in the heat, took second, and William's Danny Case, who hadn't officially swum in two years placed third.

Ossie Morton and "Kuaina" Watkins are to swim in the 50 with Eusden, and Watkins and Perry Stearns join him in the 100. Every Crimson entrant except Pastel and Aaron is entered in the 400-yard relay...

Hall, favorite in the 50, is also picked in the 100-yard sprint. In a trial heat in these championships last year, the Mass State lead turned in a 51.1 performance, far better than both the Harvard pool and Eastern meet records. Bernabei and Eusden should give him a race for his medal...
