SWIMMING MAY Be PAST
TIME BECAUSE 50 DRY

ATLANTA Ca, June 24.-That Geor~
gia is dry may be one reason that
swimming is more popular in Atlanta
this season than ever. Lots of folks
have heard that statement before, per-
laps, for it is the newspaper custom
to have just such story with Just
such statement each year.
As it happens, however, there is a
lot of truth in it right now. So many
people are patronizing Piedmont Lake
that the park department has decided
to keep it open until o'clock every
night, while swimming instructors at
the country clubs declare that Atlanta
leads the South in swimming interest,
One big reason for Atlanta SWIM
ming interest is that the entire coun-
try has been swept by the water
fever In cities from coast to coast,
there is more swimming being done.
this year than ever before, more
aquatic games, more expert swimmers,
more women swimmers.
The suggestion has been made that
Atlanta have a splash week" Other
Southern cities may be invited here to.
participate in a big tournament.

Atlantic Fleet Makes a Good
Record at Longest Range
II Ever Fired.

WASHINGTON. April i7.-vice-Admirai
II. r. Mayo. commanding the battleship
squadron of the Atlantic fleet. reported
to Secretary Daniels to-day on the re-
suits Of the battle target practice held
by his ships near Guantanamo. The
battleships. he said. ripped away NOV
ing targets at a range OF $4,000 YARDS.
more han ten miles. This Is the longest
range at which the fleet ever fired In
target practice. according to Secretary
Daniels.
Admiral Mayo also reported that the
spirit Of the officers and crews never
had been better and that all felt much
had been accomplished In the way OF
generally improving the efficiency OF the
fleet. The records made In the battle
practice are TO be kept secret. but Mr..
Daniels said they were records OF which
the navy might well he proud.
Secretary Daniels seemed TO be under
IN. impression that scoring hits al ten or
eleven miles range was without prece-
dent either in the United States or any
other navy. This. however. is disputed
by ordnance officers who have been fol-
lowing the European war. The Britirh
battle cruiser Lion. they say. began TO
hit the German cruiser Hluecher at a
range OF sixteen miles in the North Sea
running night last year. Even before the
war both the BritlSh ana GERMAN naNles
have held target practice at a range
Of approximately $4,000 yards.
~Vice-Admiral Mayo reported that
only two minor incidents married the
smooth running of the fleets target
practice programme. The guns OF the
hattleship Michigan suffered from two
split hoops. which prevented that ship
from making a better score. and one OF
the guns Of the ba;tleship Arkansas.
