TAUNTS MAKE YOUTH
SWIM MING CHAMPION
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Taunts and jibes of his fellows made
a champion swimmer out of Johnny
Osipowich.
Two years ago Johnny's only claim
to distinction was that he was the
brother of Albina Osipowich, who was
smashing records right and left at New
England swimming meets.
In self-defenSe, the 17-year .old youth
joined the Worcester, Mass, Boys Club
and went In for swimming In earnest.
In his first meet. held In the Merrimac
River, he nearly froze, but led the field
to the finish mark. Then followed more
training, minor meets and additional
jeers from his friends after sister Albina
won the Olympic championship for the
l00-meter free-style swim.
But the indoor season of 1928-29 saw
Johnny grabbing New England cham
pionships and breaking established
records even as his sister was doing.
Now Johnny is a champion In his own
right. holding the New England title
for the 440, $50 and mile. During the
Summer he set a new mark for the
440, doing the distance in minutes
and 3-5 seconds.

AUTOS CHOSEN FOR LOOKS
NOT PERFORMANCE IN 1929

That the good old days when auto
mobiles were selected for what they
could do on the hills and how long
they would last have passed without
being noticed, has been discovered
by H. /. Phillips, humorlst, who has
just made his annual trade-in OF
what he thought was pretty good
car until the neighbors began to look
condescendingly at it from the in
side OF their shiny new sedans.
"a few years ago choosing a new
machine was a serious and import
ant undertaking" Phillips writes in
The American Magazine. Not so
many years back a man had to be
wary. 1t was considered proper pre-
caution, after becoming interested
in car, to look up owners of the
same make and find out whether it
would always run, how dependable
it was in cold weather and whether
it would go up hill unassisted.
Performance was the big item.
Body lines, trimmings and color
were relatively unimportant. What
a buyer wanted to know first of all
was: When I go out in it, what are
the chances Of getting backi'
els it any good on the hills was
another leading query and it was
the custom of all automobile manu-
facturers to compete in hill-climb-
ing contests and fill the newspapers
and magazines with advertisements
of what their rattlers could do
when driven to it.
To-day performance is taken fer
granted. The assumption, generally
speaking is that all automobiles will
do what is expected of them and
that at no time will a man have to
get out and walk back few miles
for a farmer and oxen. In these
modern days buyer doesn't ask
how good the car is, but, What
other color schemes have you5'
and, Haven't you something more
dazzlinz?"
