...captains are stars in their fields. Burditt, who is also chairman of the Freshman Committee of Phillips Brooks House, has scored 83 points in eight games from his position as center and Eusden has won six and placed second in three of the 10 races he has swum.

...McClure and Stew Pach stand a fair chance of sweeping the butterfly 200 for the Tigers, but Waldron will be plugging for a Crimson second. If the contest is swum at all according to form, Cutler and his mates will have around 21 points to Princeton's 28 going into the 440. In this event, Ulen will probably withdraw Rick, saving him to bolster Harvard's already favored 400-yard relay team, thus virtually guaranteeing his men the seven final points which, added to whatever Ed Hewitt and Torpedo Van Vort can collect in the 171/2 lap grind, will place...

The worthy Ulen had been fostering secret hopes of perhaps snatching an American record for the distance, since the event was to be swum only once during the season. Gentlemen such as Messrs. Hutter, Kendall, Barker, and McKay were then Hal's disciples--a potent enough aggregation for any sprint record...

...revealed that Eric Cutler, tired after his epochal 1500-meter second, had swum a heat of the 440, but that his time of 5:03 was too slow to quality for the finals.
