Swim marafhon The financially troubled Howard County Y.M.C.A. held a swim marathon to raise funds. Sixteen thousand dollars was made, far surpassing the goal. Counselor, P. J. Kesmodel, chairperson for the event, managed to generate much enthusiasm from the Mt. Hebron student body, to which 333 , 000 of the total can be attributed. The highlight of the three day event held on February 18, 19, and 20 was the cel- ebrity swim. Principal James R. McCrumb swam two laps to contribute to the cause. P. J. Kesmodel, Mr. Aiello, Mr. Monninger, and Mr. Link all swam in a relay against four faculty members from Howard High School: the Mt. Hebron team grabbed the victory eas- ily. lunior Mike Sapp swam 1, 000 laps to raise over S600 , and High School All-American Swimmer, Sally Winde, swam 200 laps. Approximately fifty members of the student body, faculty , and administration volunteered as swimmers, lap counters, and officials for the fundraising event. 224 STUDENT l.IFE!Swim marathon
