Behind Clark are Olympians Ed Townsend, a consistent two-minute individual medley man, and Dave Lyons, a freestyler and butterfly expert.

Dale Kiefer, like Lyons and Goettsche a graduate of New Trier High School, took second in the 200-yard breaststroke in the NCAA championships last year with a time...

With I.T. & T. resources smoothing its way, Avis will be able to put a good deal more power behind its harder try. Under Townsend's tutelage, the firm went from a $3,258,000 deficit in 1962 to a $2,913,000 profit last fiscal year. It still has a long way to go to overtake Hertz, which has three times as many cars and five times the gross income.
