ROSS A WONDER
WHEN in WATER
Frisco Giant and Tank Rec
Ordholder Is Natural
Born Swimmer
is VERSATILE ATHLETE

Norman Ross, a giant swimmer of the
olympic Club. of San Francisco. who won
the national 22O-yard championship in the
worlds record time of min. 22 lis sec,
has the earmarks of one of the most won
derful watermen ever deveioped in any
land.
Twenty years old. over six feet in stock
ings. and weighing more than 200 pounds.
he is an athlete of extraordinary versa
tilty and natural-born swimmer.
About year ago he gave an amazing
exhibition Of all-round ability, winning in
one short day ten prizes in as wide ranging
events as running, hurding. the jumps, the
weights, the discus. canoe racing and swim
ming. and the feat was the more remarkab bic
in that he was obliged to compete in both
heats and finals in several of the contests
Stroke Is Perfect
The most striking feature of Ross
swimming is the perfect rhythm of his
stroke. His arms and legs work in such
close unison that he moves through the
water smoothly and with absolute con-
tinuity.t not the slightest jump or check
being noticeable when he glides along at
full speed
His form is not faultless. He bends
the top leg at hip and knee a little offer
ing unnecessary resistance to the water.
high and rather awkward, placing need
less strain on the shoulder muscles and
causing him to roll more heavily than essen
tial.
But these very faults make his sensa
tonal speed more astonishing and indicate
even greater performances to come. when
experience and good coaching eliminate
them and give him better style.
Ross uses the single trudgeon.Crawl and
changes between n four and a s!x-beat leg
drive according to the distance he is cover
ing, but in the 220-yard championship he
displayed "A ix-beat action throughout.
Novel Feature
A novel feature was noted in hN execu-
tion of the leg thrash Most single trudgeon
crawl eXponents take one comparatively
wide scissors kick. then make the follow
ing smaller scissors even in scope and il
time. Ross. instead, seems to graduate
