96 I --_---- Noe SUR a a a i i a de ae WINNETKA TALK December 15, 1928 Predict Champion Swimming Squad at N. U. This Season Northwestern university's swimming team, which finished second in the conference last year, faces the coming season with the best balanced squad since the championship teams of 1924 and 25. Eight lettermen and nine sophomores who won their numerals as freshmen compose the squad which Coach Tom Robinson will place in the running for the Big Ten championship this winter. Michigan is the team which the Purple figures to stand in the way of the title. The Wolverines won both the Western conference and the National championships last year with North- western second in each contest. Since 1914, Northwestern, under the tutelege of Coach Robinson, has won the Big Ten championship nine times and won the national title in 1914 and 1924. In 1925 the Purple tied for first place with the Navy. Northwestern's water polo team has never lost a match since the sport was introduced into the conference in 1926. This year's team appears even strong- er than the previous three squads. Capt. Wally Colbath, member of the Olympic team and National Collegiate diving champion, appears to have little trouble in the way of annexing the Big Ten title again. He will also swim on the 160-yard relay team. Al Schwartz, star free style swim- er, will be available for all of the crawl events. Dick Hinch, national collegiate backstroke champion, will be one of the outstanding swimmers in that event. Eddie Lennox, letterman in the breast stroke, appears to be in even better condition for the coming campaign. Other lettermen are: Omar Miller, back stroke; Joe Hofer, free 'style; Mark Wicks, free style; Paul Collopy, free style; and Vaughn, free style. Among the sophomores who will be of assistance during the coming season are: Jimmie O'Keefe, diving; Robert Waite, breast stroke; Edwin Reiter, free style; Henry Malinowski, fancy diving; Gilbert Sheldon, back' stroke; and Paul Palm, back stroke.
