LANCER Great Swimmer
LANCER is q wonderful swimmer and
is by far the best Of all the Coast
swimmers brought to Hawaii. His per-
sonality is one that causes admiration
and IL is hard to get him to talk about
previous achievements in his line. He
} will talk about the weather, the beau.
tiful scenery and what fine swimmer
Duke Kahanamoku is, but he win not
! talk about himself. LANCER will tell
his questioners that he likes Honolulu
and everybody here and that he is 60.
ing to do the best he can. In yester.
, days warmup LANCER cut loose in the
!, 440-yards and breezed to the tape
t. without exertion in 5:35. He covered
J., the first 100 in O:56, and the 220 in
D 2:34
That the clash between Duke and
5 LANCER will be wonderful swimming Is
= certain, for both are anxious to win
