Aggies’ Jimmy Flowers set the breast stroke record of 1:07 last year while swimming for Highland Park (Dallas) high school, and since then he has annexed the Southwest Conference record in that event. There appears to be no one in high school this year who can break Flowers’ record. The back stroke mark of 1:05.3 was set by Lloyd Smoot, Dallas, in 1943, and that mark also appears safe. - Other events on the eight-event meet card include the low board diving, the 180-yard relay, and the 160-yard freestyle relay with close competition expected in all events. Coach Adamson, who is presi dent of the College Swimming Coaches Association, and v i c e- chairman of the Olympic Water Po lo Committee, AAU, will have his eyes peeled for future prospects who might be Olympic boys in the future. Admission to the meet is free but due to the limited capacity of the stands he advises fans to come out early. In all meets this year many have had to be turned away.
