MISS BLEIBTREY IS
AN AQUATIC MARVEL
'16-Year-Old Lass Already Is

Miss E,helda Bleibtrey of the New

girl who won the national 500 yard A.
A. L. swimming championship last week
in the winter pool at Brighton Beach. Is
Americas latest aquatic marvel.
Sixteen years old. and a green novice
less than one year ago, she stands to-
day a title holder. a worlds recordist
and probably our most brillint prospect
in the field OF water sport for women.
Since she sprang her first surprise on
April 5. when she set an official worlds
standard OF 3S4-5 for 80 yard back
stroke swimming in a regulation rs
foot pool. she has performed feats which
stamp her one OF the greatest young
mermalds ever developed.

her wonderful possibilities. On April

and covered the course In 7:<0 <-5.
which leaves hardly doubt she would
have lowered the international indoor
record of Z :31 2-5 had she not been
exhausted from the strenuous trip from
Pittsburg.
These achievements. with others al
most as good at free style sprinting, de-
note on the part of Miss Bleibtrey all
round ability never attained by a fair
contestant OF 16 or by a more mature
one in the same length of time. They
predict for her even greater success dur
Ing the approaching outdoor season.
when the national championships at
longer distances come up for decision
She has been made to practise chiefly
over 500 to 1000 yard stretches, so
that she has developed exceptional en-
durance.
Miss Bleibtrey's stroke has caused a
good deal of favorable comment She
uses the double trudgeon crawl. with a
six beat leg drive and a slow. powerful
arm action. planning noticeably and GID
ing smoothly through the water ap-
parently without the least effort.
A remarkable and rather unusual fea-
ture OF her swimming Is that she keeps
her form even when tired. She may be
played out at the emo OF a hard race
but she never shows II. Her stroke In
variably remains clean and correct to
the very last.
Miss Bleibtrey's sudden rise to fame
is particularly gratifying because of the
plan on foot to send team OF Ameri-
