Freestyler Van Adamson emerges dripping from the peiol after
completing the final lap in the medley relay’s record-breaking per
formance last week. Adamson joined teammates Bill Karow and
Bill Sargent in cracking a record held since 1947 by the Cadet trio
of Howard Spencer, Jimmy Flowers, and Danny Creep.
Swimster Trio Claims
‘Star’ Honors with Win
Star of the Week for athletic
competition from Feb. 6 to Feb. 11
Was not an individual, hut a team
-t-the 300-yd. medley relay swim
ming unit.
The Battalion sports staff se
lected the trio of crack mermen,
Bill Sargent, Bill Karow, and Van
Adamson, because of the relay’s
feat of setting a new pool record
of 3:(>6 in Its event last Friday.
Clipping four-tenths of a sec
ond from the previous P. L*
Downs, Jr., Natnthrium mark, the
three tankmen came within seven-
tenths of a second of the South
west Conference record of 3:05.3
set by Texas last spring. The earl
ier campus time had been held by
a combine of backstroker Howard
Spencer, breaststroker Jimmy
Flowers, and freestyler Danny
Green since 1947.
The new time was established
as the Cadet aquatic squad nip
ped the Northwestern Louisiana
splashers 38-37, by winning the
final event of the evening. All of
the relay members contributed
valuable points in their indivi
dual specialties as well as through
relay wins.
Karow Tops Butterfly-strokers
Karow slapped the tiled-edge
of the pool first in the 200-yd. I
breaststroke for five points. He
was timed at 2:36 for the dis
tance.
Adarhson annexed the number j
one spot in the 440 freestyle to pull
the Farmers within six points, of
the Northwesterners. The lanky
speedster did the distance in 5:25,
and in the next race, the fipal com
petition of the night, 400-yd. free
style relay took )the seven point
first place to win the meVt.
Sargent, in addijtion to perform
ing on the victorious 400-yd. group,
was second in thje 100-yd. back-
stroke, only a hand behind the
winner. J > M
Two Cagers Ranked High
Top contenders for the honors
during the period were <ngers
Walt Davis and Bill Turnbow. Da
vis was the “little jinan!’ who broke
Baylor’s back when he twice stole
passes from sopjh Ralph John
son of the Heaps, galloped up
court, and tallied on successful
crip shots.
The Nederland! rebotmder Oon-
trolled . the defense backboard
when the Cadets made their belat
ed second half eothebaek and kick
ed in 16 points tb further contri
bute to the Bruin downfall:
Against SMU’s Mustangs Turn-
bow turned in one of his best per
formances of the campaign; he led
the Maroon offense with nine
markers and also played well on
defense. Although the team un
fortunately was off for the night,
the Perrin hustler did his best to
aid the Ags to overcome the hotne-
court advantage of the Ponies, and
the locals came within six points
of doing just that.
Breaststroker Bill Karow churns his way
through ]the waters in another winning race.
Young Karow. besides winning the 290-yd. breast
stroke eVent last Friday, joined teammates Van
Adamsok and Bill Sargent in a record-setting
3CjO-yd. medley relay performance. Sargent, a
very capable performance, took second in his soc
ially at 100 yards to add to the Cadet point to- j..'
tal. The Battalion photographers found Sar
gent’s speed deceptive and failed to get a good
shot of him, so there was no picture, available for . ,
publication. /I
