Swimmers Shatter All Existing
Meet Marks in ‘4B !M Season
By Bob Kolzbauer
Intramural swimmers clacked every record time in the book
this season!
Racing against the stop-watch in a season capped by Pi Kappa
Phi’s title-winning spurt in the playoff, the IM tankmen racked up
new marks in free style, backstroke,-breast stroke and relay events
as though they had a grudge
against swimmers of previous
years.
And those golden boys of the
120-yard relay event Allen
Goldenberg, Jerry Weiser, Mur
ray Rosetsky and Dave Maga
ziner, of Phi' Epsilon Pi, twice
clipped split seconds off their
time in that event, making the
distance in the quarter-finals in
1:02.6, then coming back in their
next appearance to set the mark
at 1:02.3, a full second off last
season’s record
WEISER
The Phi Eps also laid claim to
the backstroke title when Jerry
Weiser butterflied the 60 yards
in 40.9 seconds.
Jack Senior of the tournament
champion Pi Kappa Phi crew
heaped added glory on his fra
ternity with a stunning 32-sec
onds time for* the 60-yard free
style, clipping just 0.1 second off
the previous mark. Senior swam

BEST
From the beginning, the swim
ming season promised to be one
of the best in IM history. The
intramural office recorded 39
entering teams, seven more than
last year, with 301 individuals
swimming a grand total of 567
“man-meets.” Man-meets is the
term designed by the IM depart
ment to indicate the total num
ber of participants in swimming,
ignoring the fact that some men
swam in several meets.
Last year’s individual figures
showed 225 men participating, 76
less than this season, and 425
man-meets, 142 les than in 1948.

IM Boxing Win
Seven Forfeits Hurt
Topnotch Fight Card
A game little Negro, 135-pound
Earl Brown of Omega Psi Phi,
came back from the brink of dis
aster last night to pound his way
into the favor of the crowd and
gain a spirited decision over Don
Arbuckle, Beta Theta Pi, in the
favored attraction of an abbre
viated IM boxing card at Recrea
tion hall.
The early clamor and din of
near 400 wild fans as they
watched five well-matched bouts
ended in a sour note, however,
when the remaining seven fights,
including two popular heavy
weight battles, were decided on
forfeits.
Twelve more fistic events are
scheduled for the varsity squared
circle in Rec hall, at 5 p.m. today.
LIGHTWEIGHTS STEAL SHOW
The light-weight 135 pounders
stole the show last night, fight
ing every one of their three
scheduled brawls with the win
ners scoring TKO’s over their
victims.
Brown, counter-punching in the
first two rounds of his bout with
Arbuckle, was slow starting. Ar
buckle, leading the early action,
connected often to set the stal
wart bac ko nhis heels, but with
his seconds pointing the way,
Brown came back in the third to
jab his way into the fight.
Following his leads with hard
right crosses) he raised the roof
with a stunning right in the last
round to stagger Arbuckle and
prompt the calling of the squab
ble.
In the other light matches, Ray
Tronzo, Sigma Phi Epsilon punch
ing sharp and staying away from
the offerings of Jim Dunaway,
Phi Delta Theta, battered his op
ponent into oblivion in the sec
ond canter.
HALLIGAN'S STANCE
Tom Halligan, Sigma Nu, fight
ing from a wide-open, hands-at
his-sides stance, rocked Charley
Taylor, Sigma Phi Alpha, with
sweeping rights and lefts, con
necting in the second round to
batter Taylor senseless.
Clark Young, Tau Kappa Epsil
on, slugging through two rounds
on even terms with 'George
Hotchkiss, Alpha Tau Omega,
freight-trained a rapid right in
the last stanza that opened a cut
over Hotchkiss’ eye and gained
Young the win.
EARLY KNOCKDOWN
Flooring his man in the first 20
seconds of the initial round, Ern
est Cameron, Beta Theta Pi,
waltzed his way past the blows of
Robert Houseworth, Triangle, in
the 155-pound class, to capture
the decision of judges, Major Rob
ert Halpin and Chuck Drazen
ovich.
