FANCY DIVING COMPETITION
Many Aquatic Stars Will Com
pete at Travers Island.

competition for fancy divers will be
held to-day at Travers Island. When
half dozen men holding various titles
will struggle for the outdoor championship
of 1910 Particular interest attaches to the
contest because of the entry Of Harold
Smyrk of Australia. Smyrk has defeated
most of the worlds best fancy divers. and
several times won championships In Eng
land and Australia.
To many the victory Of Johanson, OF
cago Athletic Association. in the Olympic
games of 1905 was unsatisfactory and not
conclusive and since Smyrk tied with the
winner only a short time before the con-
test at Shepherds Bush a defeat OF the
Australian by the American champion next
Saturday would appear to have bearing
on the question.
The other national event on the card Is
the sS0-yard swim, and for once It looked
as If Daniels would not make a runaway
race of 1t. His team mate. Bud Good
win, has been doing remarkable work or
late, and his recent half-mile at Deal
Beach, covered easily in IL minutes 81
seconds seems to indicate that Daniels
will have to swim better than the record
of IL minutes s 2-5 seconds to win.
A 200-yard handicap has been added to
the programme for the sprinters. and II
has filed with the names of almost every
crack short distance swimmer in and
about New York.
The races will be held over the usual
1l0-yard course. in Travers Island Creek,
between the New York Athletic Club yacht
house and Glen Island.
