SWIMMING The fact that their first meet was a defeat cast no shadow on the unwaverin determination of the Wyandotte Swimmers who tallied ive victories out of nine at the close of the 51 season. Wichita North forced the Bulldo s to bow out when the final score revealed a 36-29 Reds in lead in the inital meet ofthe year. Bob Bishop took the onl first for the Red and White in the 100 yard breast stru e. The next three s lashes, however, turned the tables, as the Ro - men u led on to defeat the Wichita East Aces 41-24 t e Tope a Trojans 35-31, and the Wentworth Dragons 48-18. A trip to the Wichita Natatoriums proved little short of successful in the respect that the Eastteam and the North squad edged out a victory over the Bulldogs, 34-23 and 32-Z5 respectively. The Ro men returned home to sink the Wentworth Dragons 46- 0. The Wyandotte Mermen took first in six of ei ht events. A meet with Topeka proved to be Trojan s ay when they came out on top 30 to 27. The final meet of the year with Kemper resounded the Bulldog grumble 46-Z0 with the assistance ofNorman Shipley who took first in the 100 yard back stroke with a timing of 1:09. Z.
