Fancy Divers to Compete
for Natatorial Honors
at Brighton eac h

Two national swimming champion
ships for women arc on the schcdulo
this week and moro thnn usual
interest attaches to them, for worlds
records nro anticipated in both. On
Friday tho lb0-yard back stroke event
rs to be held In the 75-foot pool of
the Pittsburgh A. A. and among the
entrants are Ruth and Eleanor Smith,
the famous little twin mcrmnids of
the Athletic Club Of Columbus, Ohio,
who have actually beaten in compcti-
ton the international standard. I'm
fortunately they did it in 6O-foot
pool, so their figures could not be
listed. But in Fridays race they will
find required conditions and there is
every indication that one or the other
will hang up a now mark officially.
On Saturday the 500yurd free style
title will be decided in the winter pool
ures sevcnty-five feet, and two of the
candidates, Miss Charlotte Boyle, of
the New York Women's S. A., and
Miss Bessie Ryan, of the Mcadowbrooll
Club, Philadelphia, are reported to
have gone under the record in prac-
tice, so here also the chances of see
ing the existing mark wiped out seem
good.
In conjunction with the national
5oo-yards championship at Brighton
Beach will bo held the fancy diving
contest for the title of the metropoli-
tan district. In this event the two
most prominent contestants are Miss
Josephine Bartlett and Miss Helen
Wainwright. Miss Bartlett has held
the title for four years. but expects
keen competition from Miss Vain
wright, mere slip of girl from
College Point At Detroit recently
Miss Wainwright was placed ahead of
Miss Bartlett in n similar contest.
Ralph Craig, the seventeen year old
star Of the Los Angeles A. c., was
credited last week with swimming l60
yards on the back in l minute 81 sec
onds. This is within six seconds of
the time which won the national cham
pionship a few days ago and ut the
rate the young Californian is improv-
ing he should very soon be in line for
title lnurcls.

Women toS,Uim11or 500 Yards
National Title This Week

Girls and women who wish to take
up swimming or water sports will
have a splendid opportunity now that
the pool Of tho Carroll Club, at 1870
Madison Avenue, has been opened.
Realizing the value Of swimming in
eelf-protcction and as means of
physical development the officers Of
the organization have decided to re.
serve certain hours of each day for
non-fncmbers. so as to allow "a MANY
as possible to undertake. tho study and
practice OF watermanship under com.
potent, up TO date instructors.
The fancy diving contest hold on
wednesday at the New York A. c., was
featured by brilliant work on the part
Of three of the Mercury Foot cntrants-S M t".S
Rudolph Saacke, f. Sponbcrg and George
Dnhm They displayed more action and
better form than they ever have, con-
vincing experts that they will be factor.
in future national competition
Miss Marie Curtis, of Northern High
School, Detroit, won 25-yard back
stroke dash on Monday in 1926 sec
onds, or within one second of the record
for women.
Harry Stevens, leading promoter Of
swimming in Cleveland, has taken charge
of aquatic activities at the Maplewood
Shore Club and is arranging q series OF
weekly carnivals at which will be feat
ured a number Of championships md
other important events.
The two victories scored BY Miss
Ethelda Bleibtrey, of the New York
Women's S. A, in the recent meet at
the Peoples Palace, Jersey City, stamp
her one of the greatest young mermaids
ever developed. Sixteen years old and
. novice less than one year ago, she
first hung up at the meet worlds
50-yard back stroke record Of 80 4-5 sec-
onds, then rompcd away with 220-yard
free style swim in the remar arkable time
of minutes II % seconds. These per-
formances are amazing, considering her
age and inexperiencc and indicate for
her wonderful future.
The fancy diving championship Of
Southern California will be held shortly
in Los Angeles and it is awaited with
great interest, for among the spoken
candidates are Clyde Swendsen, title
holder, and Kenneth Wiscman, pro-
claimed lately the greatest springbonrd
artist in the world. The latter appar-
entity has never competed with top
notchcrs and many are anxious to sec
what he can do when pitted against a
star of tested ABILITY like Swendsen.

Penn Relay Entries
Proof That Sports
Are Coming Back

Pennsylvania twenty annual
relay carnival, that will be held here a
week from next Friday and Saturday,
definitely shows the influence of the
war on track and field athletics. Both
the army and navy took up athletics
at the beginning of the war as one OF
the great aids. not only to getting the
men fit and keeping them 80. but also
us a means of developing the fighting
spirit and the esprit de corps.
1t stands to reason that with athlet-
les of all kinds being developed
throughout the numerous army and
navy camps of the country, q great
wave of enthusiasm for athletics should
sweep the country when the war was
over. The wonderful entry list OBJ
tanned for Pennsylvania races indi-
Gates that this wave Is flowing in and
that it has not by any manner Of means
reached the flood yet.
The entries reach total of $50,
which is a total altogether unexpected
by the management. The big surprise
Of the entry list is that the number of
college teams reaches more than 100.
and, according to letters received from
several Western colleges, the only rea-
son they cannot enter this year is be-
cause of the fact that their excheouer
has been exhausted and they cannot
afford to come East.
This years meet promises to break
all records not only in attendance of
college and school teams, but also in
the high standard Of performances.
Chicago, Pennsylvania, Princeton, Pitts
burgh. Dartmouth, Mass. Inst. of Tech
noiogy and Michigan all have one-mile
20 seconds. Columbia, Yale, Harvard.
Notre Dame, Chicago, Cornell and
Princeton are all talking Of winning
the two-milc championship, and, II
necessary, doing close to the present

WILLIAM H. TAFT, defending tho
league of nations. said in Phila-
adelphia:
The opponents of the league are the
kind of people who prance about de-
claring that war fortifies and ennobles.
Such people remind me of old Uncle
Peleg Westerman.
Il met old Uncle Peleg in New
Hampshire village last month. He sat
in rocker in the general store.

them slow pokes wot didn't know there

doubtless heard Of the transport course

to Gettysburg or watching him in
specting his vehicle on the return to
camp. At the present writing there
