BIRD RE-ELECTED CAPTAIN OF SWIMMING TEAM
June 1921

R. P. Bird '22 of Brookline, Mass., captain and star plunger of the first Dartmouth swimming team, has been re-elected to lead the Green natators for next year, in spite of Mayor Sullivan's promise to turn the pool over to the Mack Sennett bathing beauties. Bird was rated as the second best plunger in intercollegiate ranks in an Ail-American selection recently made by a Chicago paper. He is a member of the Players and the Phi Delta Theta fraternity, and was one of the "Three Lost Chords" featuring the program of the Musical Clubs on their western trip.
