Apart from the individual and house competition, there was the added thrill of watching a competitor in the Rome Olympics, Miss Dale Krieg, as she swam a demonstration lap or two. She was accompanied by the college champion boy swimmer, Peter Sander.
In 1961 the carnival included novelty events such as clown-diving by the boys, a water ballet with specially trained girls and an exhibition swim by a Dutch Olympian.
