0. 5. HAS FUST
IWTERTEAMIN
OLYMPIC MEET
"Bad” Gohdwin, nf the New York
Athletic club, winner nf more na
tional aquatic championships than any
swimmer now in active competition,
and a man well qualified to judge of
the chances of the American water
men in the Olympic events, for he is
a veteran of two Olympiads, is of the
opinion that the boys who are now
on their way to Sweden will take their
full*shore of honors at the coming in
ternational meet. Following are
Goodwin’s views of how American
watermen should fare in the games:
By “Bud” Goodwin.
IT may be that I hold too optimistic
a view of the situation, but I am
frank to confess that 1 don't see
why Americans shouldn't gather in as
many points in the Olympic swimming
events as England. Germany and Aus
tralia, whose squads are reputed to be
the strongest.
England lacks sprinters and fancy
divers of championship caliber: Aus
tralia has only four men to take care
of nine events and not a diver, a breast
stroke or back stroke swimmer among
them: and Germany is noticeably defi
cient in the two middle distances, so
that any weak spots on our team will
be counterbalanced by those of others.
Big Array of Talent.
For the 100-meter sprint we have
Puke Kahanamoku, of Honolulu: Har
ry Bebner and Perry McGillivray, of
the Illinois A. <and Kenneth Huz
zagh. of the t'hicago A. A. No more
■ han foui foreigners are in their class—
William Longworth. Harold Hardwick
and Cecil Healy, of Australia, and C.
Bretting, of Germany.
As to Bretting. be is undoubtedly
fast, but his best 100-meter outdoor per
formance. in 1 minute 5 seconds, does
not look unbeatable. On the other hand,
while every one seemed rabidly skep
tical last August of Kahanamoku'?
straightaway “century” in 55 2-5 sec
onds. look what he did to our best
sprinters during the indoor season In
spite of climatif’ changes and total un
familiarity with pool swimming.
Longworth in Short Races.
Longworth, the favorite, is booked to
take part in the 100. 400 and 1.500-
meter swims, as well as in the relay'
race, with several heats thrown in for
good measure If he can train so as to
be at his best for every event, and do
himself justice in so many races, he'll
accomplish what no other man has done
before.
The 400-meter prospects are not
nearly so bright, but after hearing
from t’oach Kistler that he has been
working Kahanamoku over half-mile
courses, and seeing the dusky islander
beat our best furlong men .by some ten
yards in the relay tryout (the length of
which was nearly 225 yards, by the
way, I'm beginning to think that mat
ters are decidedly not as hopeless as
they've been painted It would not sur
p>:. me a bit to see that boy upset
calculations, even though .Tim . Reilly
and Ni-k Norich should figure
Condition Tells in 1.500 Meters.
At ’.500 meters much will depend on
Reill' condition. If he is as fit as
when he created the American stand
ard of 25 minutes 40 seconds for one
mile, last August, he should be in the
running
The 800-meter relay rare will un
doubtedly be won" by the Australians
unless they suffer an awful slump, for
on paper the? are quite twenty seconds
faster than any other team in the field.
I expect the fight between England.
Germany, Hungary and the United
States tn be very close, with odds
even!?' divided, but I'm a lot more con
fident of America landing in the awards
since seeing the great work done by
Kahanamoku and Huzzagh in Verona
lake
Places Faith in Hebner,
For the 100-meter hack stroke swim.
I place great faith In Harry Hebner.
Aside from holding the world’s record
of 1 minute 16 seconds, he is one
of the most reliable swimmers I hare
ever known.
At 200 meters McDermott has done
2 minutes 39 seconds, a world's mark,
and. apart from Barony i. of Hungary ,
who previously' held the record with 2
minutes 39 4-5 seconds, there is not an
entrant who has beaten 2 minutes 40
seconds. Toldi, of Hungary: Bathe and
Luetzow . of Germany: t'ourbet. of Ger
many: Demjan, of Austria: Courtniann.
of England, and '■< couple of Swedes, all
good for between 2 minutes 41 seconds
and 2 minutes 43 seconds, are expected
io be McDermott's most formidable
t tval.e..
Xs to the outlook for winning the
point trophy, I imagine we have about
equal chance with Germany and Eng
land, The Australian squad is too
small to score heavily, and the ol her
countries will hardly be strong enough
to figure

POUGHKEEPSIE. N. T.. June 28.
Rowing experts, who have been watch
ing the crews who w 111 contest here to
morrow in the intercollegiate regatta,
are almost universally of the opinion
that the laurels for thewarsity race will
be won by’ either Cmnell or Columbia
university.
Os the other four crews in the race -
Pennsylvania, Syracuse, Wisconsin and
Leland Stanford —Pennsylvania and
Syracuse abe held to be the most dan
gerous rivals of the favorites. The
men who will man the shells for these
two colleges are in prime condition and
are confident that they can cope with
the speedy stroke of the Columbia and
Cornell row ers.
The da k horse in tomorrow's race
will be the Leland Stanford eight. This
crew is the winner of all equatle events
on the Pacific coast this year and it
W'as In the expectation of w inning hon
ors in the greatest rowing event in the
.East that they were sent from Cali
fornia 4jy a subscription of $5,000. The
money was put up by the alumni of
Leland Stanford university.
The Westerners have been somewhat
handicapped In their workout by' the
climatic change to which they were
subjected, and also because of the fact
that they had to use a strange shell.
The boat they wdll race in tomorrow Is
one of the Columbia's old shells, which,
because of Its age and antique design,
is not conducive to the most speedy'
work. Despite this disadvantage, how
ever. I he Westerners have made a won
derful showing and their supporters
are supremely confident tonight that
they will at. least get placed in the race
tomorrow.
Chief interest is centered in the Cor
nell eight. however. Cornell has
achieved victory in all but one of the
21 races she has competed in the last
three yeflrs. The event she lost was
the freshman race of last year.
Columbia's eight, while not having
such a magnificent record behind them,
are conceded to be worthy rivals for
first honors. Columbia won the flist
race held on the Poughkeepsie course
in 1895. She waited sixteen years for
her next taste of victory, however. This
came last y ear to her freshman’crew.
Betting on the coming race, while
slightly favoring Cornell and Columbia
crews, has not been of such a decided
character that a walk-awav is looked
for: in fact, Coach Charles E. Court
ney. of the Cornell crew, this country's
highest authority on rowing, tonight
made the statement that never before
In his experience had he seen six crews
so capable as the six that have been
