Backstroker Jack Wiese won the 100-yard race in the Suburban, and placed third in the State. He was ably as- sisted throughout the season by Wells, Williams and Idler. Since Wells and Idler are both juniors, the outlook for the coming season in this division is bright. Our diving department was taken care of by Louis Ware and Joe Bayard. Ware took first in the Suburban Meet and fourth in the Stateg while Bayard placed second in the Sub- urban and third in the State. All during the season these boys put on line exhibitions. Of the breaststrokers, Al Cobb, Co-Captain Jerry Miz- ener, Tom Hough and Dick Buenger all lent their strength and support to the team. An unfortunate blow was struck in this department when Al Cobb was taken ill during the latter part of the season, but his fellow breaststrokers took up the cause and finished the season with a fine showing. Our distance men, Co-Captain Menary, Bennett and Hoetger, were an outstanding feature of the team. Hoelger came in third in the State 200-yard race, and next year the coaches will count on him to win a lot of races. VARSITY SWIMMING TEAM Wiese and Williants look pretty for the cameraman.

I I I amify Sw'mmin9 ecwon Q This year New Trier's Varsity swimming team set a record that will undoubtedly stand for some time as a goal for future teams to strive to equal. Our lnermen were unde- feated in all twelve of their dual meets, they captured the Suburban League crown for the fourth consecutive year and they took second place to Lane Tech of Chicago in the State Meet for the second year in a row. This Hne record would be the envy of any coach, and full credit goes to our line swim- ming coaches: Mr. Jackson, Head Coach, Mr. Happ, Assistant Coach, and Mr. Condon, Diving Coach.

Bob broke his old Suburban League record in the 100-yard free and was a close second to Amundsen of Lane Tech in the State 200-yard. Ben finished a good second in the Suburban 50-yard free, and was just touched out by Heinicher of Lane Tech in the State 100-yard free style. The 200-yard relay team, composed of Jim Mahle, Don Lippincott, Ralph Jones and Ben Bricker, set a new Sub- urban League record in this event and placed second in the State Meet. This relay team won consistently throughout the season. Another important part of our swimming team was the Medley Relay team made up of Don Judson, Tom Hough and Bob Bennett. They were first in the Suburban League Meet, setting a new League record, and came in second in the State Meet. GUARD First Row-Mahle, Stubbs, Menary, Mizener, Bennett, Ellis, Lippincott, Bricker.

WMM! ,.., f The splash boys made quick work of the Suburban League Meet by taking all the cups there were to be had and making three of the four new records. This season the squad made the longest trip in New Trier's swimming history, traveling to Des Moines, Iowa, where they beat the home squad by the score of 4-7 to 19. As most of this year's team is comprised of seniors, next year's outlook is not as bright as it was for this year, but there are a lot of potential possibilities which are capable of holding up our high standards, although they may not reach the admirable status of this year's squad. 88
