...seconds. One has come to expect this of Jecko, who became the second man in the history of the Easterns to set meet records in three different events. (The first was another Yale great, John Marshall.) But pleasantly surprising was the fine performance of Crimson sophomore John Hammond, who came from behind to edge out John McGill of Syracuse in 56.8 seconds. Although this time cannot be recognized as a new Harvard record, since Hammond didn't win the race, it beats his listed record by 1.8 seconds and places him among the top 100-yard butterfly...

Leading Crimson challengers will probably be John Hammond, Sigo Falk, and Jim Stanley, with Bob Jaffe another possible varsity entrant...
Yale should be equally dominant in the 200-yard backstroke with Jim Dolbey leading the pack with a reported 2:09 plus, followed by Eli Bill Clinton, who has broken 2:14. Hammond and Bill Murray, both under 2:19, will be the varsity's hopes...
...real battle will be between the Elis' captain Bill Clinton and the varsity's John Hammond for second place. Hammond is one of the best butterfly men in the country for 100 yards, and he is fast improving in the longer distance, but his 2:23.9 time must shrink considerably to beat Clinton's 2:19.0. Jim Stanley (2:30.6) or Bob Jaffe will be the other Crimson entry...
