    THURSDAY. MARCH jB. 1962
GOOD TRY: John Tinker of Delie Chi holds onto his legs
attempting a forward one and a half somersault in IM swimming
action last night a( Glennland Pool. It wasn't quite good enough,
however, as Tinker failed to place.
TKE Tops Chi Phi;
Weir Equals Record
Spirit ran high last evening at Glennland Pool, and when
the final scores were tabulated Tau Kappa Epsilon, Phi Delta
! Theta and Beta Theta Pi advanced to the. semi-final round
in the fraternity division of IM swimming.
" TKE scored firsts in four of the five events enroute to
it's’ 26-15 victory over Chi Phi.
Chi Phi, • anticipating a. close
match, removed its number one
man, Sam Weir, from his normal
free style position to the relay
team in hopes that the outcome of
the meet ' would hinge on that
event The strategy backfired,
however, when TKE won the
match before the relay.
JACK BORGERDING quickly
moved TKE into the lead with a
32.9 win in the free style. Bob
Dimock followed by capturing
the backstroke in 41.5.
Weir then narrowed the gap to
five points by winning the breast
stroke in -35.4, matching an IM
record he set: earlier this year.
Fred Good's 14.1 score tn diving
clinched the-meet for TKE. With
the victory safely locked away,
TKE’s relay , team edged Chi Phi
with a 1:01.81
