Mitchell, who already owns Harvard records in the 500 and 200 yd. freestyle, swam the 1000 in a very fast 9.53. In a pre-season meet, he also went under the ten minute mark, but had to wait until tonight to officially break that barrier. His time also represents the second fastest time in the nation this year, with only Princeton's Curtis Haydon posting a slightly better mark...
Crimson coach Bob Harrison set a higher ranking in New England as one of his pre-season goals--last winter's squad ranked sixth--and though his hopes for the team suffered a setback at Dartmouth, tonight's contest could recharge them...

...making this pre-season rounds this fall. St. Nick's has defeated Princeton, 5-3 and lost to Yale. Princeton has another miserable team this year (it has already lost to its freshmen as well as to St. Nick's), and the Tigers may be destined for a season comparable to last year's 1-22 debacle.

In past years, St. Nick's has showed up in Cambridge with fairly presentable teams that stayed within six or seven goals of the Crimson...
