What is expected to prove the most
successful swimming tournament ever
held in Southern California is sched-
uled to start tomorrow night at the Re-
dondo plunge and be terminated Sat-
urday evening. Southern California
championships in several events are
at stake and as special feature races
between crack women swimmers of this
section have been provided. The fair
paddters have responded to the call
for entries with unusual enthusiasm
and goodly array of noted stars will
be on hand to compete
Holders of local records will be pres
ent to defend their laurels and unless
the dope is sadly astray they will have
to do their best in order to keep some
of the newcomers from stealing the
honorS. In the SS0-yard event Tom
Hewlett is right on edge and the wise
ones say he will be wearing Marcus
Lees crown when the event is over.
Lee holds the Southern California rec
ord for the distance, 14.20, but How
lett is credited with a practice heat of
1928, so 1t can readily be seen why
Lee must hustle.
Harvey White is the choice of the
wise brigade to give Lee a tuSsle in
the 440, in which Hewlett and Lundy
LANCER will also compete. Lee is con-
ceded the 22O, but Barker and LANCER
are looked on as worthy contenders.
Cliff Bowes is the likely winner in the
50-yard juvenile event and Walter
OMalley should be the ultimate pre-
mier in the century contest.
In the ladies 50-yard event Inez Fan
joy and Gertrude Johnson will hook
UP and their battle should be inter
esting and close, with the odds slightly
in favor of Miss Johnson. The fair
ones diving contests are open and
some pretty work is looked for before
the winner is picked by the judges.
Following is the program;
