Theyre_Off_Women_diving_into_Severance_Pool_194142.jpg

In the photo above captioned "THEY'RE OFF", aqua-loving co-eds populate the pool on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. In the picture Jane Elliott, Margaret Gibbons, Donna Doerr, and Ruth Whitson get off to a start for a freestyle race. Great photo of four women diving into Severance Pool from the south end. The circular staircase that goes to the women's staff locker room upstairs can be seen in the corner, as can the basketball hoop for co-ed Friday night games.
