Elis, Wolverines Arrive for Meet

Yale's championship swimming team, favored to walk away with the team title as well as the lion's share of the individual crowns at the National Intercollegiate Swimming Championships to be held here Friday and Saturday, arrived in town last night, and will be practicing in the pool today.

Delegations from Michigan and North Carolina and men from several other institutions have also arrived. One, Sammy Lee, a diver from Occidental College, is a Korean, and an intense enemy of the Japs. He expressed the hope yesterday that, although there are no records set by the Mikadomen in his reach, his teammates will smash the several Jap marks in other events.

31 Colleges Entered

Tabulation of the entries shows that 31 colleges with nearly 150 of the greatest swimmers in the country will be on hand. All the toplight teams in the country from Bowdoin in Maine to the University of Southern California are included in the roster. The praises of the Elis, whose string of victories and smashed records nearly assures them the title, have been sung from coast to coast, but Michigan is bringing another powerful team, which includes free-styler Gus Sharemet, Captain Dobson Burton, John Pattern, and Jim Skinner.

The 100-yard freestyle will be a feature event of the meet, with Yale's Captain Howie Johnson, being pushed by Mass. State's "Bud" Hall, and several other men.
