Rollins Spirits Swimmers A record breaking spree by sprinter Bruce Rollins high- lighted Grinnell College’s 1968- 69 swimming season. The six-toot, seven-inch sophomore set records in four ireesiyle events — 5o-yai-d (22.5), ell-yard (28.0), loo-yard (50-1), and ZOO-yard (1:533) — as the Pioneers posted a s3 dual meet record, Won the Grin- nell Relays, and placed iif'h at the Midwest Conference meet. Three other Pioneers wrote new entries in the Grinnell rec- ord bookr Sophomore Dan Meyer set a new 2113.7 mark in the ZOO-yard individual medley, He also fashioned a 1:4 4 standard in the lanyard individual medley, only to have freshman Steve Ward better it with 3 1241.0 ei- iort later in the campaign. Jun- ior John McBlain lowered his own mark in the soeyard tree- style with a 5:251 clocking. New school standards were also set in the iooyard medley relay and the iooyard ireestyle relay. Varsity swimmers wu- liams, Meyer, Dale, and Rol~ lins posted a 3:567 mark in the medley event while an all- freshman unit or Ward, Carns, Wallis, and Daley fashioned a 3:216 entry in the record book. Meyer picked up points in the breaststroke, McBlain in the zoeyard freestyle; Williams in the butteirly, backstroke, and individual medley; Dale in the butterfly; junior John Siekert in the breaststroke, backstroke, and individual medley; and senior Cliff Frohlich in (living 0th e r Pioneer pointmakers during the campaign were s o p h o m o r e Dave Brown, sprints, breaststroke, and indi- Vidual m e d l e y; sophomore Mike Eaton, diving; sopho- more Craig Gordon, sprints; junior Ralph Graham, diving; sophomore Dave Kauiman, dis- tance; and sophomore Mike Swackhamer, backstroke The Pioneers deieated Coe, Beloii, Lawrence, st. 0lai, and Knox in dual meet action while losing to Monmouth, Carleton, and Cornell. Nelmen Optimistic A "beefed up” Pioneer tennls team will face conference foes Lawrence and Ripon, today and tomorrow, respectively, as they strive to improve their 1-1 sea- son record The team, bolstered by the arrival or four sophs to the varsity ranks, dropped their opener to Luther, 7.2, and downed Monmouth by the same tally last Saturday Leading the Pioneer attack in the No. 1 slot is Ken Scho- field, ioilowed by Chris Vaughn, Jim Spell, Doug Gilbertson. Grant Crandall and Phil Mears. Spell and Gilbertson are 20 in singles competition while the rest of the team is 1-1. Crandall and Gilberlsun are Coach Edgar Mullii‘ls’ only re- turning lettermen. The other team members are up from an undeieated (4-0) freshman team and are expected to help im- prove last season’s 1-8 record. Frosh Trockmen Future Bright Grinnell has a freshman track team, and a very good one at that. During the indoor season the team was undeieut- ed in the league and won the conference championship in the sprint and distance medley re- lay events. With the outdoor season in progress the freshmen appear strong in distance with Chuck McGrath and Phil Morales, in the sprints with Carl arenner and Jonathan Stein, middle dis- tance with Neil Onerheim and Steve Hil‘shon, as well as with Jim Pirolli in the hurdles and Al Hammond in the field events. The freshmen will have their first outdoor meet on Saturday when they go with the varsity to the Cornell relays at Mount Vernon. Evonson Stars Pioneers Lose Thor Evenson, the Pioneer‘s star high jumper, placed in six events Tuesday in Grinncll's first dual meet of the season against Loras College, Dubur que. Evenson won the lzeyd. high hurdles, the high jump and the broad jump. But despite his well-rounded e f f o rt Grinnell lost the meet, 116-20. The meet was min during a chilly rain- fall. The Pioneers will compete to- mormw in the Cornell Relays. Their performance is question— able since they have not had a track to train on so far. As War Continues Page Thirteen Eligibility Question Plagues Frosh Should freshmen be eligible for varsity athletics? It so, in which sports? What is to be gained by opening varsity com- petition to frosh? The question or ireshmon eli- gibllity is more than a month away from coming up beiore the Midwest Collegiate Confer- ence faculty representatives, And even then It will only be in the second stage of a three part procedure {or final sanc- lion. Should it survive the May meeting oi the MCAC represen- tatives, it will come to a vote as a recommendation in the fail and be presented to the schools. Dr. G. Mendoza, Grinnell’s representative to the MCAC sees the chances of the issue surviving as thin. He notes that support and opposition to the question vary among represen- tatives and that there has been very little comment on the issue at all. One of the factors which dis- courages freshmen eligibility is :2 Young Golfers Hit Course GRINNELL, Ia. — A heavy graduation toll lelt Coach Edd Bowers with only six Grinnell College golfers this spring, and just one of them — John Win- terson — is a Iettermtln.

The present situation provides an academic trial period [or athletes and thus protects the high standards 01 competition among the schools. Under in new ruling allowing ireshinan eligibility, is school could conceivably encourage an outstanding fresh athlete whose academic credentials were poor to play football. By the time his academic status was realized, the season would have ended To avoid this, Mr. Mendoza reels that, should a recommen- (lation for freshman eligibility ever be passed, it Will exclude football and basketball. Approval of freshman eligi- bility would conceivably in- crease the number of students remaining in athletics over the entire four years. It would also encourage better athletes and sustain some of the enthusiasm in athletics generated in high school. as Lost & Found FOUND: Gold pocket watch. Inquire Longhorn.
