...Crimson has some definite firstrate talent. Besides Hunter and Gorman, there is Bob Kaufmann, last year's Yardling captain who broke a national freshman record in the backstroke, but whose specialty is a very fast freestyle sprint, and Fred Elizalde, who broke the University's butterfly record...

Three experienced competitors--Doug McCartney, Bill Schellstede, and Jim Perilman--will handle the breast stroke, while Jim Coffman will help Elizalde in the fly. Besides Gorman, the dive lists Ric Johnson, the Crimson's only winner against Yale last season, and Gerry Cleason...
