READY FOR NAPLES
SWIMMING RACES
STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS WILL BE
DECIDED TODAY
Crack Amateurs Will Compete for
Glory and MedaIs-First Event
to Be Called Early in the
Afternoon

Naples will be the scene of a grand
swimming carnival this afternoon when
the amateur championships of the state
will be contested by crack athletes, who
will strive for the glory of winning and
the medals and trophies which go to the
| victor The entry list is well filled, and
everything indicates that the first state
championships ever held in this section
of California will be entirely successful.
While there are any number of good
swimmers down on the boards as COM
petitors in the big event the principal
attraction will lie in the races between
George Bromley of the Webster Athletic
club, San Francisco, and who holds the
coast interscholastic record and cham
pionship, and Wilbur Kyle of San Diego,
holder of the title for Southern Califor-
MIA Bromley came down from the north
with the avowed intention of teaching
Kyle how to swim, and the latter is
equally as sure that he knows just a
little more than his opponent.
But every event cannot be figured as
| lying between the northern and south
| ern champions. Walter Artman, Frank
Holborow and a host of other strong
! athletes are in tiptop condition, and they
may spring a surprise on the others and
| walk-Or rather, swim-away with the
| first prize.
The Carrllo family of Santa Monica
will be represented by Otti Carrillo, whose
brothers were all champions of this Sec
ton in bygone days. Most of the swim
ming enthusiasts of this section can re-
member how Leo Carrillo used to trim
| them all when il came to getting through
the water and how in turn he was pre-
ceded by still other members of his
| family.
| But Otti may be up against it good
| and hard, and only the finishes of the
various events will decide if he is a
| worthy successor to his brothers. Nearly
every athlete who is entered can swim
the hundred yards around the one
minute mark, and if pressed may be
able to lower the figure by some seconds,
| In addition to the swimming races,
which include events for amateurs in
| the championship numbers, one race for
| Juveniles and another for women, there
will be a contest between motor boats
and also high and fancy diving exhibit
| tions by Guy Travilla and Professor Cox.
The first race will start early and Sec
retary Leslie Henry of the Southern
California Swimming association, who
has been in charge since the plan to
hold the big events here was first
thought Of is confident that the affair
will be decided success.
