Sweeping every first place, the Harvard varsity swimming team swamped the visiting Franklin and Marshall natators, 59-12, in the Indoor Athletic Building Pool last night, while, in the outstanding race of the season, Captain Ed Stowell edged out Chalmers to lower the Harvard record by two-fifths of a second.

Barely leading at the end of the hundred, the Crimson captain forged ahead in the last two laps to build up a sizeable margin of victory. The win was Stowell's eighteenth consecutive victory in dual meets.
