Tripp again stood out as a fast swimmer in the forty-yard dash, beating another State champion. But, once again, R.-M. Afs F-77 gallant, but never disheartened, tankmen were defeated by a score of 24 to 36. l i The following are to be commended for their ultra-fine performance i during the season of l928: Without Bob Stork we are sure that diving would not have been the i success it was this yearg Bill Davis was more of a help to our team than can be expressed, in his swimming of the relay, the forty-yard and hundred-yard dashesg Dan Taylor served as a great help to the team in the two hundred and twenty-yard swimg Raynor, improving all season, was a great help in the two I hundred and twenty swim, toog John T. Carstarphen is to be more than con- l gratulated for his speedy work in the relay and two hundred and twenty-yard swimg Carroll, I-l., showed excellent form and was a much-needed help in the diving, forty-yard back and breast strokeg the success of our relay team was largely due to the excellent work of HE. J. Alderferg his brother, Alderfer, l H., was also of great service to the team in his excellent Work in the diving and forty-yard back strokeg Alva Tripp was our outstanding swimmer and was high-point man-he swam' the forty-yard and hundred-yard and the relay l in fine formg heading the team, Captain Hobbs upheld the breast stroke' in fine style. Although not placing in the first meet, he was not disheartened and came back with a first or second in every meet after that. To him is due a large part of the success of the team, being always there for practice, thus setting an example for the others to follow. We wish to make special mention here of one of our star divers, Lucas Baird, who, due to a serious accident, was unable to be with the team this season. Last, but by far not least, Coach Maben is to be commended for his hard and untiring work with the team in training each individual for his particular event. To Coach Maben the whole team extends their heart-felt appreciation for the unsparing effort expended by him this season. Thefprospects for next year's team are quite brilliant, as all but two y members of this year's team will return to school next fall. E F i H K ml l93l H Q . elllfi t --'lll Q 1
