-l In a flying one and one-half somersault, diver Ron Syria displays the perfect form and pre- cise timing that won for him the Metropolitan League Diving Championship. Getting off to a flying start, Comet freestylers Jack Wisney and Bill Dergis placed first and second in the grueling 200 yard event against Western. Thrashing their way to a first and second place finish in the 100 yard free style against Chadsey are Bob Boucher and Mike Pilkington as Cody participants cheer them on. Comet tankers had high hopes of swimming away with city honors as they churned their way through the 1958 schedule. In our opening dual meet, we encountered little opposition as we dunked Western 63-19. We streaked ahead again to swamp Southwestern 73-16, and to overwhelm Chadsey 63-22 in the following meets. However, in a battle of unde- feated squads, Redford edged out the Cody swimmers 46-40, and for the second straight year dimmed Comet hopes of a divisional title. Mackenzie drowned all hope by handing us a second successive defeat when their medley relay four pulled ahead in the last few seconds to post a 44-42 victory. In the last two scheduled con- tests, we took first place in the new 100 yard breast stroke event to tie Cooley 43-43, and dominated Cass Tech completely as we swam off with all but one first place. Cody highlighted an eventful year by smashing three team records, in the 100 yard butterfly, the 100 yard backstroke, and 100 yard free style. Climaxing the season, diver Ron Syria out per- formed all opposition to become the new All- City Diving Champion. Thirty-nine
