Severely handicapped by lack of experience, this young team finished 7th in district 17 competition. The year was not without its bright spots however. Gary Leegard set a school record in the four hundred yard free style. The free style relay team blasted the school record by 4.8 seconds. The four seniors on the team. Gar)' Leegard, Harold Berglund, Dale Dykes, and Don Howes, all had an outstanding year. Between the four of them, they accounted for over one half the team’s points.

GOLF AND TENNIS EXPECT GOOD SEASONS With six returning lettermen, Mr. Poston, the tennis coach expects to come up with a good season. Beginning practice on March 15, their first match won’t be until early April. This year’s team will be helped greatly by Ron Keith, who was rated seventh in the Midwest last year. Jim Dahl, last year’s captain. is also among the returning lettermen. Yes, a good season is in prospect. Dupont Golf, unlike other sports, is not a team, but rathei an individual sport. There are only two returning lettermen: Dupont and Elliot. However, as the season advances there is hope for new players, new talent. Surely, as the season advances spring fever will bring more students. Elliot 22
