are 30.0 for 50 yard free style; 38.3 for 50 yard breaststroke and 1:26.0 for the 100 yard breaststroke. The Patty family has only been living at Dewart Lake for the last two years, moving here from Fort Wayne. In Fort Wayne she used to swim for the Club Olympia.

Swimming for Patty is personal satisfaction, knowing she is doing the best she can. She did agree she has met a lot of kids and her mother, Nancy, is hoping for her daughter to get a college scholarship. But, Jennifer Patty has set no goals for herself in a swimming career. Reflecting back over her years of competitive swimming the biggest thrill was when she competed in Cincinnati, Ohio for the Midwest meet, when she lost the high point trophey by two points. Another time was when she swam in the 10-year-old and under age group and won the title as Indiana Swimmer of the Year by having the most places than others in her age group. Presently she is at the top of her age group with the most places. In competition she has com-
