Swimmers Challenge Potent Navy Squad

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The varsity swimming team tackles one of its toughest opponents of the season this afternoon at Annapolis. Navy lost only Guthrie, Norfleet, and Oldham from the squad that beat Yale last year, and gained a highly touted sprinter from last year's freshmen. But the Crimson was not hurt much by graduation either, and most of the swimmers who figured in last year's victory over the Middles are back to try again this season.

Chadsey Challenges Griffin

Navy's Don Griffin is returning to defend his title as the best breaststroke star in the East, but Crimson sophomore Bill Chadsey should give him trouble. Griffin will also be a threat in the individual medley. If captain Bob Kaufmann swims, Harvard should be able to beat him, but the Navy star edged out the varsity's second man John Pringle in their last meeting.

The Middies can also count on distance star Gaylord Hopkins, who won the 220 and 440 yard freestyle events last year, to pick up his share of points.
