‘TUESDAY, AUGUST 7, 1923. AMERICAN WINS PRIZE OF 1,006 POUNDS BY SWIMMING CHANNEL Award to Be Made Henry Sullivan by Daily Sketch Despite Failure to Observe All Rules; Feat Requires Over 27 Hours DOVER, Aug. 7.—(By The Associated Press).—The Dail ySketch announced today that it had decided to award to Henry Sullivan the 1,000 pound prize it offered some time ago for the channel swim. The newspaper says that al- though Sullivan entered the contest did not fulfill the con- ditions, inasmuch as there was no representative of the paper in the accompanying boat, but that n view of his pluck and the fact} that there is no doubt of his having Zecrapiiahea the feat, the prize will ve ajwarded. Sullivan swam nearly 56 miles. DOVER, Aug. 7.—<By The Associ- ated Press)—Henry Sullivan, the hef- ty son of Massachusetts who con- quered the Bnglish channel yester- day, is content to rest on this big achievement, at least for the present. “T'm satisfied with what I’ve don I'm not planning any other swim; all I want is sleep,” he told the corres- pondent upon returning to Dover in the motor boat which ped eer 4 him across the channel. Papen eyes were slightly blood- shot and his ruddy face was bristling with a two day growth of beard, but he was smiling and declared he felt fine—not tired, but sleepy, although he had caught a few hours sleep last night in Calais. The first thing Sullivan asked for when his pull of more than 27 hours ended, was just ice cream. His train- ers thought it best, however, for him to take something additional inthe nature of a stimulant. oe the start to finish Sullivan plugged away with a straight breast stroke. He says he had found from xperience that to alter a stroke or op over on his back for a rest caus- ed the muscles to contract and bod- ed bedly for the achievement of an ambition such as his. Sullivan ete only once during his long swim. That was when he had swam. but a short distance from’ Dov- er. Not long after he haf eaten his light meal he got into a choppy sea where he swallowed considerable water. This turned his stomach and he felt that to eat again would pre- judice his chances. He found the water coktest tm-mid- stream but he said that whenever he moved into a particularly chilly swirl he simply speeded up his- stroke to keep his body warm. —.__— Souvenirs at The Smoke House. —<—<$$—$<__—_— 40 .600 42 «592 49° «524 50.505 53.4090 68 327 71 «.297 Club W.
