Large Crowd Expected
With. LANCER, Kelii, Kruger and
other stars entered for the big meet
this evening the events should attract
large crowd. To the real swimming
enthusiasts the advent of the Iew
natators is especially interesting, and
such performances as that Of last
night with Eleanor Lyser, Marion
Dowsett, Edith Kenn, Ronald Watt
and Chung filling the leading roles,
the swimming game is going to re-
ceive big boost.
From the standpoint Of interest the
220-yard breaststroke, 50.ya.d ladies'
event, 200-meter, S00.meter and lau:eS'
relay promises to be the best events.
LANCER has the edge, of course, in the
meter swims. but he isn't expected TO
leave Kelii or Kruger miles behind.
Both these swimmers have Teen com.

be surprising to see them rive LANCER

almost certain 10 be one Of the real
cards or the evening. 49,:
