est. The Bergen railway. for ex-
ample, connects the ancien. and pic
turesque town of Bergen, in the
western part of the country, with
Christiania. the capital, in the east.
1t is distinctly a mountain railway,
winding its way through forests,
valleys and mountains, along lakes,
rivers and fjords, through sn "
clad wastes and fertile fields.
Norway appeals to the sports
man as well as the tourist. Its
rapid streams afford opportunities
for salmon fishing and its valleys
are stocked with many kinds of
game. Over 10000 tourists visited
Norway in 1912, and since the world
war the number is increasing each
year, with indications that 1922 will
be the greatest year in the history
Of the Viking country.

CHICAGO, May -s5.-Pfans IN
under way to give Chicago one Of
the greatest outdoor swimming
courses in the country. Followers
of aquatic sports. identified with h
board which is drawing plans for
the great athletic stadium TO be built
at Grant Park o tho lake front. are
confident that when stadium plans
are finished the swimming purse
will be included.
Chicago. with Lake Michigan
washing its shores. and hundreds OF
natatoriums and swimming pools. Is
regarded as the swimming center OF
the country. as far as the number of
champions is concerned. However,
the facilities for record performances
are limited. and star swimmers from
this city have ~journeyed to other
waters to establish some of their
high marks.
Lake Michigan affords plenty OF
space for swimming during h
summer months and the beaches
are always we'll patronized. but these
conditions are not sufficient or sat
isfactory for swimming C These
beaches. in most instances r pro-
tected by breakwaters. but seldom
does the water remain smooth for
any length of time. The water
gets choppy and as a result
meets for the open water are either
called off or IL held. seldom are pro
ductive Of new records.
The Chicago river mas been used
yearly for the holding of SWIM
ming events. Most of these meets
however are held down stream.
However. it is not permissible for
swimmers TO use the river for train
ing purposes. When these swim.
ming events are held, the bridges
crossing the water and the docks all
along the course swarm with spec
tators. At Lincoln Park. along the
north shore of Lake Michigan. is a
large lagoon which is often used for
swimming events, as well as for
sculling.
With the acquisition of the swim
ming pool in connection with the
Lake Front stadium. 1t is planned to
nave a seating arrangement to take
care of thousands who can watch
every move of the men in the water
from a place of vantage.
Those who are fostering the plans
for this pool expect to have It built
