mendous impetus to metropolitan aqua
tics.
1t is evident that Miss Durack is will
ing to oblige as many OF her hopeful
rivals as possible. Her only stipulation
thus far has been that she does not
care to swim less than 100 metres. 1t
seems that the 25 and so yard dashes
are indifferently regarded in the Antip-
odes, in spite Of the fact that in an
exhibition Miss Durack has been timed
over the half-century in the marvel
lously fast time of II and % seconds.
Since the United States has two ex-
ceptionally fast swimmers at rs yards
and so yards in Dorothy Burns, Of Los
Angeles, and Charlotte Boyle, respsc-
lively, perhaps later the Australian
worlds champion may change her mind
and accommodate these two young
ladies.
Miss Wylie brings tale Of new back.
in Australia which depart from ac-
copied practice in that the swimming
is done entirely with the feet. This is
no doubt taken from the life guards
book and contributes in practicability
what 1t very probably lacks in grace
and form.
She declares that in Australia the
breast-stroke championship is use1
over the 100-yard course instead Of the
double century, as it is here. Most
swimming experts are inclined to agree
that the 200 yards requires too much
Of sustained strain and that the dis
lance should be shortened.
Duke Kahanomoku needs no intro
duction to American. swimming vo-
taries. It was he who put the Stars
and Stripes in front in the aquatic
races in Stockholm, and his famous
crawl stroke is the accepted form
among American swimmers. The tour
he has arranged in behalf Of the Rec
Cross is most commendable. Starting
at San Francisco, he will go to Seattle
and thence to Canada. where he will
show our allies to the north some o.
his celebrated speed. He returns to thu

Public School
Wins by New
Training Plan
Success of No. IA Laid to
Special Athletic
Centre
BY a. c. Cavagnaro

Athletes OF Public School No. IA.
Of Manhattan, attribute their many
successes in the past six months in
the various schoolboy sports to their
training IN the after-school athletic
centre. Placing athletics on q com
pulsory basis brought out hundreds
of new boys and made possible the
aelection OF formidable teams.
The highest victory gained by the
Ess. Side school was in the outdoor
track and field championships between
the elementary schools of the City,
which was held in Brooklyn recently:
Although pitted against the best OF
three dozen other schools, totaiilng
more than 1850 boys, the No; Ia
pupils were returned winners with IL
points. 1t was the first time thac
this honor had been achieved by stu
dents of this school.
In the Greater City indoor swim
ming championships the school entry
camo out second after spirited fight
throughout the meet. However NO. Ia
shared in the individual titles. and
also earned number of second places
The school athletic prestige was
also displayed in the annual indoor
Roosevelt Athletic League games when
IL again captured the team honors.
Public School 40. which is also mem
Der OF the Roosevelt League, finished
second in the City title games. Other
Roosevelt League schools who scored
points brought up this total OF this
organization to AZ points for the cham
pionship.
Won Ginning Contests.
Public School ID did not terminate
its victories with speed on track and
field. In the class Ginning competl-
zion the members of the Eighth. Year
performed so well individually that 1t
was ranked first over its other City
rivals in this contest.
Considerable credit for the high
ranking given to the schools Of the
Roosevelt Athletic League is que 20
Mrs. Ruth c. McGray, the district
Superintendent; DR.. George l.. Hentz,
the principal Of Public School Ia, and
Abraham Sachs, the latter's heuten-
ant. All three officials believe that
athletics and after-school athletic cen
tres are essential in building up the
youth and making the brain work
Int In the school field day of Public
School No. IA, held at Crotona Park,
The Bronx, last Friday. more than
Ave hundred students contested in the
various races. The girls also had
their forms of pleasure on track and

Australian Merrnaids Will
Meet Rival Champions in
Brighton Pool
By Louis Lee Arms

Thanks to Australia and the Ha-
waiian Islands the swimming season
this year from u metropolitan or ma
tional point of view promises to be
a smart one. The arrival from New
South Wales Of the Misses Durack
and Wylie, with the assurance that
their tour has been properly sane
toned by the governing body OF Aus
traian aquatics, which was expected,
and with the appearance Of Duke Ka-
hanomoku, gives more swimming talent
to this country than it has had at any
time.
Most of our senior champions are In
one branch Of service or another, but
the favorable attitude toward athletics
taken by the War Office leads to the
plausible belief that they will be seen
in competition as often as usual.
Norman Ross, of San Francisco,
swan some brilliant races since he
put on khaki, and another 220-yard
swim between him and Kahanomoku,
such as they competed i'll the Harbor
Of Honolulu would draw thousands of
spectators anywhere and bring up the
best there is in speed swimming.

only in person. She completely dom
mates, and has since the Olympic
games at Stockholm, the women's
swimming field. She is the champion
Of champions in the sense that Willie
Hoppe, the billiardist, is. Perhaps
more, for at all distances and at all
times Miss Durack has been simply un-
beatable.
The A. A. U. record book shows that
Miss Durack holds almost score Of
records--in fact, about all there are,
excepting back-stroke and breast stroke
swimming, at which her companion,
Miss Nina Wylie, is the conceded cham
pion. Miss Durack says she is swim
ming as well as ever "from 100 metres
up" which means that Claire Gelligan
Charlotte Doyle, Dorothy Burns, Olga
Dorfner, Frances Cowells and others
her at varying distances.
So far as Miss Durack's metropolitan
appearance is concerned, Charles J
Keane, Of the Brighton Beach Winter
Pool, has stolen a lap upon his oppo-
sition and has landed this aquatic plum
Not only that, but Claire Galligan, the
national indoor 500-yard champion, has
Indicated that if there is to be a match
between her and Miss Durack for the
worlds title at 500 yards she WOULD
like to swim the race in the rebuilt
Brighton pool, which is now rapidly
nearing completion. The pool will com
ply with the A. A. U. regulations.
This race, with possibly q 1Oo-yart
sprint between Miss Durack and the &C
complished Charlotte Boyle, Of Ses
Gate, new national champion, are two
of the biggest events that possibly
could be carded and will give ire

Of the great tourney, although il Is
presumed Miss Browne will certainly
be absent when the first day of pIav

The very prodigality of her nation
wide triumphs, herr almost uninter-
rupted sweep of the courts during the
last four years, lures us into a rash

dlctlon that Miss Bjurstedt will again
be crowned queen when the final point
IN the tina! round match is won and
lost. The great Norwegian will play
through in defence of her champion
ship and the massive title trophy
which she has already won twice in
succession.
The lack Of the draw makes it an
impossibility to forecast the finalist
in the other bracket. Miss Goss and
Miss Zinderstein, for instance, might
be drawn together in their first round
match, thus eliminating one strong
contender at the outset. Mrs. Wood,
Mrs. Green, Mrs. Morse, Miss Guthrie
and other stars may also be found in
The opposite side of the draw to that
occupied by the champion, making it
mere guesswork to try to pick the
one likely to come through. No. we
shalt leave that other bracket vacant
contenting ourself with the statement
that Miss Zinderstein and Miss Goss
appeal to us as the most formidable
players next to the champion herself.

Reports of the performance were re-

News Of the 100-yard victory scored

Lead in Batting Marks

An odd feature about the race for
individual batting honors in the two
major leagues is that several Of the
leading hitters have at one time or an
other since coming into the majors
been discarded by some particular club.
Clarence Walker, who has been
battling for the lead in the American
League all spring, had been let out in
turn by Washington, st. Louis and
Boston. George Burns was discarded
by Detroit. In the National League,
Larry Doyle was let out by the Giants
and later turned back by the Cubs.
Fred Merkle was discarded by the
Giants and Red Smith by the Brooklyn

Fordham Gives
Varsity Letters
To Ball Players

Fourteen players OF the Fordham
University baseball team. and Joseph
e. Kinsley. the manager. were awarded
their letters yesterday afternoon at q
meeting of the executive committee Of
the athletic association.
In view of the difficulties that we're
encountered in the lack of veteran
material and the dearth of capable
substitutes when several Of the regu-
lars were laid up at the same time,
and the long schedule, the season can
be looked upon as successful one.
The Bronxmen captured twelve Of the
eighteen collegiate games played. but
were victorious in only one Of the four
games arranged with service teams.
The three exhibition games that were
arranged at the beginning Of the
season also fell to the lot Of the
Maroon nine.
The schedule was the hardest that
a Fordham baseball team 'has faced
were actually played and five games
had to be abandoned because Of rain
or other reasons. The Bronx men met
the strongest teams in the East.
Youngest Team in History.
The team was probably the youngest
combination that ever represented the
Bronx University. Six of the players
TO get letters were freshmen and three
were sophomores. One freshman,
Philip Colctti. has already enlisted.
AL Lefevre, the third baseman, was
announced as the leading batter. with
an average Of .ala. Harold Keough,
centre fielder. was second with an
average of ISL. and Philip Coletti,
left fielder. followed Keough with a
stick total of 1888. Lefevre's work is
noteworthy in that he is only nineteen
years old, and although he is a sophie
more. he never played collegiate base
ball before.
Halloran, the freshman twirler, who
made his debut against Columbia, won
Ave out of six games. McQuade an
nexed seven victories in eleven starts,
but the Maroon veteran was forced to
bear the brunt of the pitching burden
for the best part Of the season. Nc
Quade allowed an average of six hits
per game. Most of the defeats were
due to poor base running. -Four games
we're lost by single run.
Coach Former Maroon Star
William Keane. the coach, deserves
credit for his efforts IA team that
numbered only two .eterans at the
start of the season. The coach is a

Foremost among these are Miss
Marion zinderstein, of Boston, and
Miss Eleanor. Goss, Of this city,

come Mrs. Stuart Green, of Ardsley;
