Paced by Al Giddings and Kayo Hallman, who was later moved up to the varsity, the lightweights crushed their first opponent, Lincoln, 51-11. Then the Little Pirates ran up against Lowell and Washington, each of whom edged the Drakeites by three points. For their fourth meet, the Privateers met Lowell again, and this time, upset the Indians, 39-26. The Drake team was as good as any MBU team in the league, and was the favorite to grab the crown. As this hook goes to press before the league meet, which was held here at Drake, it is impossible to state that outcome. Among those upon whom Drakeis honor rested were: Dan Shillinger, Norm Taylor, Warren Levin, Rod Levin, Dick Walenta, Tom Cowells, and ,lim Wil- liams. 1 , W ,Y f,

VARSITY Coach Daly's varsity swimming team has so far done well against very stiff competition. As this book goes to press, the Pirates have swum in four meets, dropping them all by close scores. At the beginning of the season, Drake suffered a huge loss when Butch Hal- linan broke his arm and was out for the entire season. Drake began its season against Lincoln, Lowell and Washington in that order. All three teams edged the Pirates. As far as league competition is concerned, the Pirates were picked to end either first, second, or third. With so much depth, the Green and White was a natural choice. Stars for the Pirates were: freestyle men, Ted Tyon, Larry Johnson, and Bill Cole, breast strokers, Ken Croker and Kayo Hallinan, backstroker, Dick Lawe, and divers, Kayo Hallinan and Louis Ratto.
