SWIMMING The Race Against Time For the second year in a row, the ambitious Axeman tankers coached by Bob Wil- liams captured the city championship, capping an outstanding season of eight wins and one loss. The team went on to place second in the district contest at Leighton Pool on the University of Oregon campus. Seven of South's members qualified for state, but despite tremendous efforts they hnished 13th with Qlfz points. South splashed to fourth place in the freestyle relay, Mike Dowling tied for fourth in the 200-yard individual medley, and Roger Barrow placed sixth in the same event. The meet was highlighted by the appearance of Lake Oswego's Don Schollander, the 1964 Olympic gold medalist in four events, who presented awards and spoke in- formally about his experiences in japan.

In the second meet of the season the harriers successfully defended their Willamette Invitational crown while Steve Stageberg won the individual championship. Lack of depth, however, was apparent as the Axemen placed third in the district meet at Cottage Grove and sixth in the state championship at Salein's Bush Park course.
