Harvard began with a win in the medley relay and before Cornell woke up the Crimson had built a huge 36-7 margin going into the 1-meter dive. Hess Yntema and Rich Baughman took 1-2 in a leisurely 1000, captain Fred Mitchell came back from a free leg on the medley to win the 200-yd. free, a la Charlie Campbell, and Tim Neville set a new Harvard pool record in the 50-yd. free with a 21.5 clocking to highlight the Crimson's early surge...
...Yntema came back following the diving break to take his specialty, the 200-yd. butterfly, recoring a good time of 1:55.6 in his first real test in the event this season. Neville surprised Cornell's Chip Harrison, a consistent 47+ swimmer, in the 100-yd. free and won in a slow...
...Crimson's best swimmers will probably be too much for the Big Red. Captain Fred Mitchell is again favored in the 200-yd. free, Dave Brumwell should lead a Harvard sweep in the 200-yd. breastroke, while either Brumwell or Hess Yntema could take the 200-yd. individual medley easily. Tom Wolfe, the Harvard record holder, is another favorite in the 200-yd. backstroke...

The Big Red's Chip Harrison has been consistently under 48.0 in the 100-yd. free and will probably face Mitchell, while Hess Yntema will meet his first viable competition in the 200-yd. fly in the person of Cornell's Meade, a 1:58 performer...
Dave Brumwell, who has been living partially in Yntema's shadow after being the top individual star of the team in his freshman year, is having a great season. He came back Saturday to regain his 200-yd. individual medley crown with a very good 1:58.8, and continued to swim midseason 2:14+ 200-yd. breaststrokes he only attained at the very end of last season...
