SHAKAMAK STATE PARK. Ind,
Aug. 26.-With all but two of the
defending champions entered, the
1943 women's national swimming
meet was all set today for a preview
opening.
The meet wasn't scheduled to
start until tomorrow, but a top
heavy entry list in the 1-mile free
style race made it necessary for
officials to call for trial heats today
Defending champion in the mile
is little Nancy Merki, one of the
four aces sent here by the Multno-
nah Club of Portland, Oreg., in an
effort to capture the team cham
pionship
The particular foe of the Port
land girl was Charles L. 1Bud)
SaWin, slender Indianapolis coach,
who for the last three years has
produced teams which nosed out
the Oregonians.
Sawin is back with five of the six
girls who brought the team title to
the Riviera Club of Indianapolis in
194l and 1912. The sixth member
OF that team-Betty Bemis-will
defend her 400 and 800 meter free
style titles but as a member of the
WAVES.
-Four senior events are listed to-
morrow.
Suzanne Zimmerman of Portland.
Greg, will be the first to put an in
dividual championship on the block.
That's in the 100-meter free style.
Joan Fogle, 17-year-old Indianap-
oils star, will be next up in the 300
meter individual medley. The third
senior race will be the mile.
A new champion is assured in the
days fourth event-the platform
dive. Margaret Reinhold of Lake
land, Fla, is in the WAVES and
unless some last-minute arrange
ments are made, she will not COM
pete.
The only other event without a
defending champion will be the
100-meter back stroke, won last
year by Gloria Callan of New York.
She now is professional. h.
