The Radcliffe Swimming Team dove, swam, corkscrewed, carried weights, sat down, and walked to victory over six other schools in the Brandeis Swimming Meet last night.
The Cliffies led fairly consistently throughout the meet, but by a small margin.
The last event was the obstacle relay. The first swimmer, Suzie Burchell, was asked to dive in, swim, and do a handstand: Carol Glaser did the corkscrew (turning over between strokes), and picked up a weight; Alex Murray side-stroked carrying the weight; and Jane Mansfield swam, sat on the bottom of the pool, and then walked to the edge.
By completing these contortions faster than any of the other teams, the Cliffies increased their lead from one-half point to four and one-half.
