age, Greta Johanseu, formerly of
Stockholm, Sweden, and now a
resident of Berkeley, is the cham
pion diver of the world, having
won the Olympic games medal
which was awarded in Stockholm
in 1912.
The youthful diver recommends
that the American girls learn the
art of swimming before they
reach the age of maturity. To
obtain grace and beauty, she sue-
gests swimming and declares that
there is no sport as beneficial.
The successful swimming of
Miss Johansen is due to her conf
dence. She is fearless. Five
minutes before diving she stands
firmly on the plank and stretching
her arms directly In front of her,
she gains poise and with full con-
fidence, she drops. While in the
water she uses the breast stroke.
the trudgeon and the crawling
movements with ease and speed.
Each stroke is distinct from the
other.
In her champion diving exhibit
tion at Stockholm, she used the
swan dive" which is unknown
in the west. 1t is standing dive,
the back is hollow and the arms
are in horizontal position; the
feet are close together, and she
retains her position throughout
the dive. Every action is scienti-
fic as well as graceful.
