UNIVERSITY SWIMMERS DEFEAT GREEN 49 TO 22

PENN MEET SATURDAY PRELUDE TO YALE FRACAS

Sweeping away to an undisputed lead over the Dartmouth swimmers, the University aquatic forces annexed their seventh consecutive victory, submerging the Big Green contingent on the short side of a 49 to 22 score. E. E. Stowell '34, valuable Sophomore member of this year's Harvard marine group, got off to a good start in the backstroke event, which he won clocked at 1 minute, 46 2-5 seconds, a new Harvard record.

With only one more meet remaining before the clash with Yale on Wednesday, March 9, the natators seem likely to face the Elis without a defeat to mar their record. Pennsylvania will send its team to the Harvard pool on Saturday.

The summary:

50-yard free style--Won by Banfield (D); second, B. S. Wood '33; third, R. D. Fallon '33. Time--24 sec.

100-yard free style--Won by B. S. Wood '33; second, Smith (D); third, H. M. Howe '34. Time--55 4-5 sec.
