...afternoon heat instead of the evening final that Harvard swam its best time as three University records were set in the trial and were not matched in the championship races...
Baughman, who took second in the event last year, failed to match that performance even though he swam a faster time. His 4:45.507 clocking did not qualify him for the final, but in the consolations he took a strong second--good for five points--with a time of 4:42.137, just fractions off Mitchell's record...

...biggest surprise of the afternoon, freshman Tom Wolfe, who has been coming on strong all season, swam a new Harvard record time of 1:58.6 in the 200-yd. backstroke, beating two strong Penn back-strokers in the process. Mitchell and Rich Baughman, the latter starting to make his big end-or-the-season push, took one-two in a leisurely 500-yd. free, Jim Davis qualified for the Easterns in a second event with a 4:55.8 clocking...
