It resulted from the Olympfe finals at Manhattan Beach Bath, New York, recently, where Miss Bietbtrey set a new world's sprint record for 200 meters, free style swim. Her time was 4 minutes 34 1-5 seconds, as against the international standard mark of 4 minutes and 43 seconda, established by Miss Fannie Durack of Australia, and Miss Frances Schroth’s unlisted record of 4 min utes and 40 1-6 seconds on the Coast, She broke her own 200-yard record at New York Saturday, swimming it in 2:56 3-5, TEACHER AND PUPIL Back of that race there ts a story of how @ pupil took the laurels away from her closest friend and Just two years ago Miss Bieibtrey was 16 years old.

She tucked her golden curls up under her rubber cap and decided to make swimming @ On the same beach there ruled @ swimming nymph who also had beaw tiful golden hair, queen of the sea. Ethelda and Chartetté looked se much alike that people believed them sisters. Then began that friendship which has made them almost inseparable for the past two years, At first Miss Boyle advised her pupil just to try and keep up her as they swam about. It was but she learned rapidly. FISH OUT PRINCE The result was that the pupil at tained the speed of her teacher, They. toured Australia and the bepeieterss Islands together for three where they fished the prince Wales out of the briny when he injured on a surf board. Since their return they have almost daily together.

There is no dive too hazardous for her te attempt. One of her favorite stunts is what she calls a “Minneapolis cial.” It's full of loops and grace.

She didn't quit, Now she holds all Northwestern swimming records for women and has added the national high diving championship to her long list of rec+ ords, These water nymphs aren't se very delicate.
