LINWOOD
Three Records Broken The annual inter-house swimming sports of Linwood High School were held in the school pool this year. This necessitated the changing of 55-yard events to 36 2-3 yards and consequently no new records resulted in these distances. C. Kinder, however, set two new times in under 14 25 yards events, and J. Allan improved the intermediate 110 yards breaststroke time. The inter-house points competition was decided by the first touch at the final event and resulted in Rutherford House leading Hillary House, 83 points to 82.
