Miss Galligan Set a new American mark for the 440. Duke Kahanamoku took the na- tional title for the 100 vards. He was prevented from approaching his mark of yesterday by Ross crossing over his legs. This blocked Kahanamoku and Kelii, and the crowd hooted, seemingly considering the act delib- | erate. Ross’ friends, however, said | that he seldom was able to swim a straight course, nearly always wan- dering to one side or the other and | pointed to his past clean record.

Habits of neat- ness are inculcated. Practice in book- keeping and arithmetic also helps in the training of the ‘pupils.
