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 START PLAY TOMORROW FOR CUNNINGHAM TROPHY the qualifying round nt the golf tour naetent for the W W, Cunningham troph? will be played by the golfers of the Atlanta Vhletu- chib tomorrow over the East Lake course Hav in the qualifying round will b» from scratch, and as many flights as fill will he played.

MICH., June 28 The question of referee Is now the only thing that is bothering the promoters of the Brown-.McGoorty fight now. Un less the managers reach an agreement two days before the fight that takes place July 4. Promoter Floyd Fitzsim mons will elect J. Parker, of Benton Harbor, to officiate.

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 training here for flip pasl few week.-.
