Schwartz is reported to have i'm

saw him licked on two occasions by
the late Charley Holman
O'Day has been cunning for big
game all season, and he will find
cne of the cleverest opponents he has

latter, by the way. put up a bang up

nioue, while the swimming muscles
are built up and the lungs and heart
strengthened without the least dan
ger of strain. Too, one so trained
always has plenty of reserve energy
to call upon in races
A routine which can be confidently
recommended to competitors for gen
eraI use-regardleSs of whether they
are sprinters, middle or long distance
swimmers--is to begin each practice
with an easy swim of 800 to 1000
yards, according to condition and an
clination, take a rest, try a couple OF
90 or 25 yard dashes, then end up
with a few starts and turns.
When an important contest is in
sight this course may be changed
bit in anticipation of the coming
event, but as program to follow
steadily it cannot be beaten.
Trials against time should be few
and far between, as they serve no
good purpose and make great in
roads on the vitality.
Features of competitive swimming
which must be given good attention
are starting and turning, as the start
may be the deciding factor in
sprint, when the contenders are even
ly matched, and skill in turning is an
ALL important item, due to the prev
alence of short pools in this country.
The racing start, which has proven
most generally successful, is the fol-
lowing: Contestant stands on takesoh
