...medley team of Mulvey, Emerson, and Hedberg set a school record for that event by two seconds with a 2:53 clocking. The old time of 2:55 was set by Mulvey, Emerson, and Kon Huebsch. But Yale, in winning, established a pool and meet record. Kiphuth used Dick Thoman, Dennis O'Connor and Donovan in a try for the world's record. Except for two bad turns they might have had it, too. Their time was 2:48.4--1.3 off the record of Ohio State but two seconds under the other records set by recent Yale teams. Dillingham...

But, even if the Elis were to sweep every first place, which they may do, it is probable that the Crimson will score somewhere in the 'teens. Ulen's squad should pick up seconds in at least three events--the dive, the 100-yard free-style sprints, and the 200-yard breast-stroke--and there's an outside possibility for an upset in anyone of them...
