The 1967 Pan Ams marked several firsts for the Games:

It was the first time touch pads were used marking them to the hundredth-of-a-second (previous Games were to tenths-of-a-second only)
It was the first time the Individual Medleys were swum;
The 200 race distances for freestyle and backstroke were swum for the first time;
The 100 meter Breaststroke was swum for the first time.
Uruguay won, for the first time, medals in swimming: there were 3, won by the country's women's swimming.
Puerto Rico also won, for the first time, a medal in swimming at the Pan American Games: a bronze in the women's 4 × 100 m free relay.

During the 1967 Pan Am Games in Winnipeg, 11 world records were beaten in swimming. It is the record of all editions of the championship, a record that will probably never be beaten.
