Riiy RadziiHla The all-important Metropolitan Intercol- legiate Championships put the finishing touches on the poor season. Here the Jasper ' s natators compiled eight points to linish fourth among the seven local teams compet- ing. Once again the two top men on Coach Sich ' s club showed their ability as Fruin took a third in the 440 yard freestyle and Radzi- villa another third in the 200 yard breast stroke. Fruin, although suffering from a leg injury, managed to turn in a 5:52 clocking. Poor as his time was, it is to Jack ' s credit that he even competed because of his painful in- jury. The medley relay of Fruin, Jack Mac- Enroe, and Tom Shields placed fifth in the local college meet which took place at the Brooklyn College natatorium. Even though its season ' s record was me- diocre, the Manhattanites who showed enough school spirit to compete on a losing team certainly deserve much praise. As for next year, a much more representative group of mermen is expected because of the strong freshman team this year. 268
