John Naber Climbing Out of Pool

(Original Caption) John Naber, Menlo, CA, climbs out of the pool after beating world record holder Roland Matthes for the second time in as many days. Naber, who handed Matthes his first loss in seven years in winning the 200-meter backstroke 8/31, spotted the German ace a two-body-length lead, then caught him in the final dive meters to win the event in 57.74 seconds.
