Last year at this time Coach Harold Sylvadore Ulen of the Varsity swimming squad was bemoaning the loss by graduation of the greatest team in Harvard aquatic history--the 1938 League Champions who in many ways rated the title of "the best dual meet team in the country." This year Hal's problem is different, for of last season's tankmen only Captain Rusty Greenhood, Harley Stowell, and Phil Walker have departed with the Class of '39.

"Honeymoon in Bali," the latest case in point, has Madeleine Carroll; it has faint glimmers of Bali; and it has a script that sometimes scintillates. Of course, it does have Fred MacMurray, too; and it is burdened with a plot; but such things seem to be inevitable.
