Three new Harvard records were made and two equalled as the University swimming team gained the third successive victory of its season in the pool of the Indoor Athletic Building Saturday night, defeating the Brown swimmers by the unexpectedly wide margin of 44 to 18.

Coach Ulen's relay team covered the 200-yard course in 1 min., 39 3-5 sec., lowering the Harvard record by 3 sec. The Yale relay team, in an easy 57 to 14 Eli victory over Penn in New Haven the same night were clocked at 1 min., 41 sec. Butler, Eli star, was 2-5 sec. slower than Wood in the two shorter free style events.
