TITLES MAY PASS
IN DISTRICT SWIM
Four Champs Threatened in
Meet This Week-7O to
Seek HOnorS.

THREATS to four current Dis
trict swimming champions will
plunge into the waters of the
Shoreham pool Friday and
Saturday nights when a classy field
Of more than 10 entrants participate
in the annual indoor championships
sponsored by the District A. A. U.
An almost certain choice to take the
l00-yard breaststroke championship
from the present holder, Marianna
Trowbridge Of the Shoreham, is Mar
garet Hoffman, former Olympic star
and the only American woman ever
to place in that event in the quadren-
nial games.
Don Smith, 14-year old Western
High School sensation, faces his big
gest opportunity of the year when he
goes up against Ernie Boggs in the
220-yard free style event. Having di-
vided with Boggs in the four times
they have met this Winter, Smith has
an even chance to take the District
title.
Some Lesser Choices.
TWO other lesser favorites appear in
the so and 100 yard sprints, with
Alex Mcmillan and Justine Farrell Of
the Central Y. NJ c. A. supplying the
under-dog element. Mcmillan will be
after Buddy Hodgson's 50-yard title
while Farrell will seek to separate Joe
La Sale from his 100-yard cham
picnship.
Three Shoreham mermaids-Jean
Rawls, Ann Bono and Rita Augusterfer
are favored to retain their present
roles as No. performers in their re-
spective specialties. Miss Augusterfer
holds two titles, the 100 and 200 yard
championships; Miss Bono is supreme
over the 50-yard route and Miss Rawls
is best in the l50-yard medley.
