‘Vindication’ Swim Fails; Water Cold Mercedes Gleitz Makes Game Attempt to Conquer English Channel. Bu United Press CAPE GRIZ, France. Oct. 21Miss Mercedes Gleitz, London stenographer, failed today in her "vindication” attempt to swim the English channel, bu£ she proved her courage in what experts said was an impossible effort. Miss Gleitz entered the channel here at 4:20 a. m. today with the water temperature 56 degrees and carried on gamely until 3 p. m., when she was eight miles east southeast of Dover, her objective. Miss Gleitz swam the channel, on her eighth attempt, only a few weeks ago. She was being congratulated still when Dr. Dorothy Logan claimed to have broken Gertrude Ederle’s record, and then confessed she had made most of her trip in a launch. “I am going to vindicate the honesty of British women swimmers,” Miss Gleitz announced. “I will either swim the channel again now, on the first good day, or show people at least that I am game enough to make a good try. She spent over ten and a half hours in bitterly cold, rough water, under the eyes of 50 or so observers, including official witnesses, only to be forced to give up. Buddy Myer. best known as an infielder, may play the outfield for the Red Sox next year.

r "With {deal Bowlers LEE

Recognized as the greatest bowler the game has ever produced. Jimmy Smith has for some years past toured Uhe country giving Instruction and rolling exhibition games with home town stars. For the benefit of young bowlers who have heard of his great scoring ability, we will review some of the high spots in his career. Jimmy has rolled sixteen perfect games of 300. He holds world’s tournament record of total pins for three games, having scores of 279. 236 and 256 for a total of 771 pins, an average of 257. These games were rolled in Toronto, Canada. In 1911. Smith has been all-events champion of the A. B. C. on two different occasions, St. Louis 1911 and Peoria 1920. Only one other bowler ever has been able to tie this record. Smith rolled 794 for three exhibition games at Melrose Park Chicago, 1921. During the season of ’23-’27 Smith rolled 1.525 games for a grand average of 207. These records and scores no doubt help to swell the audience wherever Jimmy appears, but the real reason for his great popularity is his fine personality and eagerness to instruct the young bowler the correct way to bowl. Jimmy will appear here Saturday afternoon and night at the Century alleys, meeting local men and women selected by competition.
