Docs Not Follow Finals.
This picking follows closely the final
tryout order, except that Murchison,
who has rapidly improved on board.

sensational schooIboy of Stuyvesant
High School. New York, who was
fourth at Boston, while Paddock has
recovered from the injuries to toe

The last doubts have been removed
as regards Joie Ray, Illinois A. c., in

The Americans are looking for great
trlumphs by Johnny Weissmuller and
Miss Gertrude Ederle. swimming aces,
10th of whom are in excellent condi-
ton. Miss Ederle is faster than ever,
according to Coach Louis de 3. Hand

ter several world marks. Weissmuller
and Miss Ederle are entered in three
events each, or more than any other
competitors.
WeisSmuller will start in the 400
meter free style, as we'll as in the 100
meter dash and the relay. Miss Ederle
