“The Fascination of Murder”
was the subject which won for Hol

Vicissitudes of Debate.”
Blankinship explained the meth

one.
“The entrants showed a great
variety of talent. The audience re

the talks,” according to J. L. Cas

sion.
Last night's contest, at the An

and were aimed to amuse the au

The judges were Kenneth Shu
maker, director of the lower divi
sion advertising commission, W.
A. Dahlberg, assistant professor of
speech, and Marvin Krenk, instruc
tor of speech.
Mr. Casteel acted as toastmas
ter.

Russ Cutler will back you in his
praise for Jack, Sherm, and Jerry
. . . he thinks they are tops, too.
Incidentally, here’s another sug
gestion ... we learn that the
sophomore class has thought about
financing the retirement of the
numbers of last year’s hoop cham
pions . . . that’s okay, but the class
might come through for the swim
mers, too . . . after all, Jerry Mac
donald is a sophomore, and the
class could help in sending him
back, at- least.

Six Years Together
By the way . . . Jack first met
pal Sherm Wetmore when they
were sophs at Long Beach Poly
technic when he was a diver! So
the Dallas-Wetmore duo have
been cracking records side by side
for six years. They were on a med
ley relay team together in ’36 and
’37 which held the Southern Cali
fornia record . . . their mark of
1:40 at 180 yards held the national
record for about a w'eek, too.
Back Stroker Sherm Wetmore
held a whole flock of records dur
ing his three high school years at
Long Beach Polytechnic. Perhaps
the best way to give you his prep
accomplishments would be in the
form of a list. His backstroke rec
ords:
1935— lightweight, high school.
50-yd.—29.8. Long Beach pool
record.
50-meter—33.5. Southern Cali
fornia record.
50-yd.—29.9. Coast league high
school and So. Cal. record.
1936— varsity, high school.
100-ya.—1.04.2. Pool record at
Long Beach and also So. Cal. meet
record.
100-yd.—1:05.9. So. Cal. and
Coast league mark.
150-yd. medley relay—1:26 (Wet
more, Dallas, Herron) So. Cal. and
Los Angeles records.

[ Oh yes, and did I mention that
Sherm rated third among the na
tion's high school backstrokers
during both his junior and senior
years. Summarizing it, Sherm and
Jack have cracked swimming rec
ords with monotonous regularity
since they entered high school and
goodness knows when they first
actually started paddling around.
