Having watched a bit of "Ride The Wild Surf" on TCM, I noticed in the credits that one of the leads was played by Murray Rose. When I relayed this trivia tidbit to a couple of Masters swim coaches that evening, I was shocked that they didn't know who Murray Rose was!
Am I just an old geez for even bringing this up?

Skip,
Thanks for the link and so many others you have posted as the de facto historian of swimming.
As a young high schooler in southern Cal when Rose, Konrads, Larsen and many other great swimmers were at USC, they were my idols.
Swimming for Daland in the early 80's included eduction about past greats and occasional introductions. I met Larsen and Buster Crabbe.
