...took the 100 freestyle for the third Crimson sweep, and Henry Whelchel led Al Lincoln to the finish in the backstroke. The only race in which a Brown swimmer beat a Harvard swimmer at all was the breastroke. Harvard's Bob Corris swam by Brown's Tom Wilder and Nick Whitlam took third for the varsity...
...team died hard before St. Nick's, a group of former college stars from the New York area, and the Harvard defense, led by captain John Daly, played well.
