Dick Button Competes in the 1950 National Figure Skating Championships in Washington, D.C. today. The 20-year-old sophomore, a resident of Lowell House, won the title last year, and is a strong favorite to repeat his performance.
Button, who captured the world crown in London earlier this month, is expected to have little difficulty with other contenders. Hayes A. Jenkin of Akron, Ohio, G. Auston Holt of Berkeley, California, and Richard Dwyer also of Berkeley, are rated as his top opposition. Jenkins and Holt placed third and fifth, respectively, in the international competition.
