Because of the team's added depth, he will also be able to swim the 100-yd. fly leg on the opening medley relay, strengthening that event considerably.
Yntema's competition in the fly will come from Tetlow, who gave him a good race in the intrasquad meet two weeks ago, and the two should be a potent 1-2 threat.
Brent Haywood joins co-captain Phil Jonckheer (the 100-yd. record holder) and Brumwell (the 200-yd. record holder) in the breaststroke, which should be another area of Crimson strength. Brumwell already showed mid-season form in the intrasquad meet, swimming a fine 2:14.
Sophomore Tom Wolfe returns in the 200-yd. back after a fine season, and Martin and another high school All-American, John Seelen, could improve the Crimson's backstroke strength considerably over last year.
All-Purpose Freestyler
Co-captain Fred Mitchell has had a fine pre-season and will again be the Crimson's leading all-purpose freestyler, but with the arrival of Tetlow he will probably concentrate more on the 200 and 100.
Mike Cook, coming off a triple gold medal performance at the Maccabiah Games, gives Harvard the continual threat of a sweep in both freestyle events, as will freshman Miles Standish.
Tim Neville returns after an undefeated season in the 50-yd. free. He will be joined by prep school All-American George Keim in the sprints.
The dives will be improved over last year as freshman Roger Johannigman, sophomore Dave English and senior John Zakotnik should provide the Crimson with more points, while the relays could be a Harvard strength all season.
If the team can get by Dartmouth Saturday at Hanover, only Princeton (which picked up several outstanding freshmen) and Yale have realistic shots at spoiling what could well be an undefeated season for Ray Essick in his rookie year at Harvard.
