Last night the inter-hour swimming
classes wound up their work for the
first semester with a meet at the
Union swimming pool at 7:15 o'clock.
The meet consisted of eight racing

than 50 entries competing for places.
The participants were members of the
regular swimming classes conducted
by the physical education department.
The meet was staged under the 'su-
pervision of ;the intramural sports
board. The diving events were divid-
ed into beginner and advanced divers
sections. Straight forward dives from
