Brumwell's finish, on top of previous record setting fourths and sixths in the 200 and 400-yd. IM, was, however, over shadowed by the performance of Hess Yntema in the next race. Yntema completed an excellent meet as he became the first individual Harvard winner at the Easterns since Mike Cahalan in 1968 when he won the 200-yd. butterfly in a new Eastern and Harvard record time of 1:52.411. Yntema also added a fine third in the 200-yd. IM, and a second...
Harvard took over second place again after the next event, the 100-yd. butterfly. After breaking Tim Neville's Harvard record in the afternoon preliminaries with a 51.101 clocking, Hess Yntema swam a very strong race in the finals to finish second, lowering his own record to a fast 50.89. Bob Meade of Cornell, who had lost to Yntema on judges decisions the two previous times they had met in championship competition, made no doubt about who had won this time as he set a new Eastern record with a 50.180 clocking...

Yntema and Brumwell were unable to keep pace with the Penn star, but they finished a strong three-four. Yntema swam the best time of his career at 1:57.622 while Brumwell faded just a bit but still swam second best in his career with a 1:57.759 clocking...
...Crimson 400-yd. medley relay qualified third for the evening final with a new school record 3:33.421 performance, with the team of Tom Wolfe, Dave Brumwell, Hess Yntema, and Fred Mitchell dropped down to sixth in the final although it virtually equalled its time in the trial with a 3:33.8 performance...
