Chouteau Dyer shot to two Crimson records, Dave Hawkins broke two Annapolis pool marks, and the varsity swimming team took every first place to defeat Navy, 66 to 18.
The Crimson freshmen simultaneously came from behind against Exeter, stole the final two relays, and toppled their toughest opposition so far this year, 42 to 35, at the I.A.B.
Dyer, who is fast stropping himself down to a razor's edge, broke the 23-second record for the 50-yard free style set by Charley Hunter in 1937. He sprinted to a 22.8 mark, cutting down one of the longest standing Crimson records.
Three events later, Dyer was back in the water to chop almost a full second off the Crimson record he established in the 100 just before mid-years. His new mark of 50.7 lowers the 51.6 time he established on Jan. 14.
Hawkins' Navy pool records came in the individual medley and the breast-stroke with times of 2:17.5 and 2:32.4. Nevertheless, he has beaten both clockings in the I.A.B. waters. . . .
The Crimson freshmen, behind by seven points, 35 to 28, going into the final two events, captured both of them to win their meet with just seven points to spare.
Bill Murray, Pete Gustafson, Jim Stanley, and Steve Wailes teamed to take the medley relay, tieing the meet score, and Ed Walsh, John Trainer, Frank Gorman, and Dick Seaton combined to win it with a free style relay victory.
