Shrout, along with Pete Adams, team captain Pete Alter and backstroker Al Birch, will be swimming in his last dual meet for Harvard. Shrout was at his best in his freshman year. His fastest times in the 50, 100, and 200-yard freestyle events and in the 200-yard Individual Medley were all set then...
...score so often (an average of two goals every three games), Bobby Hull would still be fearsome. There is not one ounce of excess baggage on his 5-ft. 10-in., 195-lb. frame; physiologists have called him "the perfect mesomorph." He is the fastest skater in the N.H.L.

...Shaw proved Wednesday that he is without a doubt one of the country's finest collegiate milers. Shaw ran a brilliant 4:02.8 mile in Dartmouth's Leverone Cage--the fastest time ever by a Harvard runner--in the latest episode of the Shaw-Jim Baker assault on the four-minute mark...
