Outside of the high jump, where John deKiewiet is a heavy favorite, with Yale placing two-three, and the relay, in which Yale has nearly four seconds better than the varsity, the other events are toss-ups. Best chance for a Crimson win is in the 440, where Wharton has done .8 seconds better than Yale's Bob Skerritt, but either Ed Holohan or John Pendexter should give Yale the third place...
...more in the eighth. Costa reached first on a fielder's choice with one out, and took second on a ground out by Phil Haughey. Repetto drew a walk and Bergantino singled, scoring Costa and sending Repetto to third.

With the exception of the sprints, however, the best the varsity can hope for is a few points gained here and there by qualifying for the finals. Perhaps the surest of these "placing" points are the relays. In the 400-yard medley relay, the Crimson's best time of 3:55.0 ranks fifth in the country and may be good enough to score in the final. Yale at 3:48.8 and Michigan at 3:49.0 are hopelessly ahead of every one else...
...Crimson ranks slightly higher in the 400 freestyle relay, for its time of 3:27.6 puts it fourth in the country. Once again, however, Yale, with a world record time of 3:16.1, is lengths ahead of the rest of the field...
