...varsity's only other hopes for points are John Hammond in the 100 butterfly and Frank Gorman in the dives. Hammond's second-place time in the Easterns (56.8) ranks him fifth in the premeet calculations, which figures Tim Jecko of Yale (54.9) and Dick Tanabe of Indiana (55.3) as the favorites.

...Tim Jecko got the Elis off to a flying start by setting new meet and pool records in the 100 yard butterfly with a time of 54.9 seconds.
