...Ulen reached into his bag of tricks and pulled forth Eric Cutler as a 100 breaststroke. The Crimson captain sped through the century in 54 flat to beat favorite Bob Schaper of Brown by a touch. Cutler had already annexed his regular 220 in 3:18, just ahead of Frannie Powers, and would have been ready to take on all comers in the 440 had the score demanded...
Gibbons came in with something for the Bruins to cheer about, but it was all the more apparent that Hal Ulen had completely outmaneuvered Coach Leo Barry of the visitors. In Gibbons, Barry has a man capable of trimming Soltysiak in the butterfly event. In Schaper he had a man who could have won the medley, swimming the free-style leg in place of Porritt. Better Barry strategy would have used these men up before the relay...
...Schaper, Soltysiak, and any two other men Barry has would not have had a ghost of a chance against a final Crimson relay team of Bosworth, Curwen, Cutler, and Stewell--which would have been used if needed. Ulen could have rolled up 51 points all told but naturally preferred to give some of his younger sprint men a chance to acquire valuable meet experience...
...Brown supporters that packed the pool balcony in the Indoor Athletic Building went properly berserk with joy. Bruin Coach Leo Barry's bald pate glistened with glory as he cavorted in the pool after his team had celebrated the victory by the traditional coach-ducking rite. George Gibbons, Bob Schaper, and Matt Soltysiak, the Bruin heroes, were mobbed by wildly enthusiastic teammates, and a squadron of reporters was besieging everyone with questions. Through it all,--the quarter-mile race that clinched the meet for Brown, the ovation that followed it, and the tiring session with representatives of the press afterwards...
...Schaper, sophomore sprinter, starred against Dartmouth last week, winning the 50 and 100 in 24 flat and 55.1 respectively, times which Lonnie and Harley Stowell, Crimson sprinters, have not equaled so far. Former intercollegiate record-holder Graham Cummin '38 was pressed to the limit last year by Bud Wilcox, Bruin backstroker. He is known to be good for just under 1:40 in the 150-yard event, so Art Bosworth will have to swim his best time ever in order to keep...
