...Varsity's affair started sensationally, with Columbia's Finnerty, Callahan, and Fox out-pulling Art Bosworth, Jack Waldron, and Him Curwen--Harvard's best medley relay combination. Bossie, supposed to be home with a cold, gained a body-length over Finnerty, but Captain Callahan did has breastroke 100 in around 1:04 to pile up a huge lead over Waldron, another sick-list swimmer. Curwen was faced with the prospect of overcoming a deficit of almost one lap in the free-style leg, but Coach Ulen signaled him to ease up. The time, 3:04.8, was excellent for the Columbia...

...superb relay quartets and a top-notch weight combination that the Crimson's hopes are pinned.

...second place between them to the Lion captain, Justin Callahan, in the butterfly 200. Callahan, beaten only by Princeton's Hough this year, is a certain winner. He is also a fair free-styler but will probably be so busy with the medley and 200 that anchoring the free relay will be his only sprint effort...

...Cutler and Frannie Powers will prevail over any Lion men in the distances, and Rusty Greenhood should have no trouble with Jack Keating of the Blue. In fact, Keating may take third behind Crimson's Chet Sagenkahn if the latter continues his consistent work on the springboard. The Columbia relay team, capable of 3:45, may prevail over a Harvard quartet minus Stowell and Bosworth...
