...elusive 100-yd. backstroke record the only one still held by a pre-Don Gambril swimmer-faile to fall for fresh man Tom Wolf in the afternoon trails as he swam slightly off his best time with a 54.96 clocking. As it turned out, Wolfs 54.21 opening leg on the Crimson's 400-yd. medley relay which took twelfth on Thursday night was the closest he came to breaking Dan Kobick's record...
