Swimmers Swamp Lions, 66-18, As Jorgensen Sets 220 Record

Jim Jorgensen broke his own record in the 220 and Gus Johnson placed third in the "Johnson 440" to highlight the swimming team's otherwise dull 66-18 trouncing of perennially weak Columbia at the I.A.B. Saturday night.

Obviously intent on a record, Jorgensen swam hard all the way despite the fact that his nearest competitor finished 30 yards behind.

The summaries: 300 medley relay--Harvard (Winthrop, S. Falk, Mischner)--2:58.5. 220 freestyle--Jorgensen (H), Cochran (H), Brown (C)--2:07.5 (new Harvard record--old record 2:07.8 set by Jorgensen March 12, 1955). 50 freestyle--Johnson (H), Clifton (H), Orrik (D)--23.5. 200 individual medley--Hawkins (H), Falk (H), Luikart (C)--2:16.2.
