Too much science and too little

last night at a meeting OF the Pres

meeting was held in the chapel of
Westminster Church and was at

resenting every Presbyterian church
in the city.
United States Senator Richard p.
Ernst. Of Kentucky, was to have
been one of the speakers, but was
unable to be present, owing to an
important committee meeting in
Washington. The Rev. Joel S. Gill

Mr.. Hill. in his address, said
many OF the colleges and .univer-

Bardo is Entered in so and
l00-Yard Events in

BOYER, PEDRICK
AFTER DIVE HONOR

A great deal OF interest Is being
manifested in local sport circles, in
the National Interscholastic swim
ming championship to be held at the
University OF Pennsylvania Saturday
afternoon.
The work OF Bardo in the so and
100 yard swim will be watched with
a great deal OF interest by the local
fans. Bardo has defeated some Of
the fastest swimmers in the East
and should give a good account OF
himself on Saturday.
Boyer and Pedrick will press all
contestants in the fancy diving and
no doubt will place in this event.
Samuel Keen and Thomas Bush
most likely will represent the Cherry
and White ip the plunge for dis
tance. The work OF these natatores
is an unknown quantity as the y. NJ
c. A. pool is only forty feet long
and consequently Coach Sparks has
been unable to determine how far
they can plunge.
Five Interscholastic records fell in
the championship at Pennsylvania
last year. and Boyle of Girard
College won the national diving
championship for the second time.
Boyle will compete for Girard on
Saturday.
The local swimmers will work out
In the u. of =. pool this afternoon.
At that time the relay team viii be
picked.
Doug Sheldon cut down his best
time for fifty yards by two seconds.
He is working hard to perfect his
kick and also to develop a more
powerful one.
Next year Wilmington High
School will undoubtedly have the
best swimming team in the country
barring none. The entire squad
will remain intact and by that time
will be seasoned team.
Boyer. Pedrick, Bader, Bardo,
Bush, Roberts, Keen and Sheldon
composed the Y. NJ. c. A. team
which was organized just last April.
The other members OF the High
School squad have had no expert
ence in competition whatsoever.
There is plenty Of promising ma
terial on the squad In Paul Bird
Dave McAvoy John Lecarpenuer,
Frazier Booth, Bernard Nobis, and
Bill Bowe.
The indoor swimming season is In
full swing and Yale bids fair to re
tain the swimming supremacy OF the
college world. Yale has won the
swimming championship for the col
leees for ten consecutive years
The local team lacks Just one
