HOW CHAMPIO
BROKE THREE
At Once

Here are the full details of Duke
Kahanamoku's wonderful perform
ance at San Francisco August 6, when
he broke three worlds records in one
evening. The facts and times have
been published before, but the follow
ing story from the San Francisco
Chronicle goes more into detail:
Duke Kahanamoku once again has
demonstrated the claim made by
many of his admirers THAI he is
the greatest speed swimmer in the
world today, when he broke three
worlds records in one race last night
before a crowd that packed the nata-
forum of the Olympic club tor its ut
most capacity. The astounding feat
of the Hawaiian wonder was the
smashing of the twenty-five, fifty and
seventy-five yard records. The time
for the shortest of these was
o. IL $40. In. the fifty Duke was
caught at 8:23 2-S, while three
watches agreed on 0:3z 2-5 in the sew
enty-five yard dash.
There were four starters in the
race George Masten, Hyde Lewis
and Brod Parrisch were the islanders
competitors. Kahanamoku took the
lead from. the firing of the gun. and
was a full length ahead of Masten at
the twenty-five yard mark When the
first turn was reached, the Hawaiian
was fully. four yards ahead Of the field
with Masten second and Lewis third.
Following the turn all four contest
ants beat the water with marvellous
rapidity of arm movement. Kahana-
moku sliding through the water with
the ease and grace of a well-oiled fish.
The competitors heightened out be-
fore the fifty-yard mark was come to.
Bearing past the rope marking the
fifty, Duke picked up his stroke. This
was the only time during the race
that the speed marvel seemed to be
extending hinRTelf. A wonderfully
agile turn and rev powerful strokes
brought Kahanamoku to the finish OF
the race, Masten placed second, a
good fifteen yards behind the winner.
while Lewis was a fair third.
The former worlds record in the
twenty-five yard race was held by
the famous G.. M. Daniels, and was
o: II 3-5, and has stood since the early
part Of 1907. A. Wickham is now the
ex-World's champion for fifty yards.
His record was made in Sydney, and
was 0:23 3-5, one-fifth of a second
slower than Kahanamoku swan last
night. In the seventy-five yards Duke
has bettered his own worlds record,
0:39 3s5, made at Sutro baths during
the Pacific coast championships on
the Fourth of July, this year.
Kahanamoku received big ovation
for his wonderful performance and
was presented with a handsome tro-
ply. The race was under the jurisdic-
ton of the Pacific Association of the
Amateur Athletic Union, the timers
are experienced men while the watch
and the distances are backed by an
affidavit of a civil engineer as being
