The answer remains to he proven, but it is a fact that Young should be In perfect condition when he takes his place among the othet starters on Aug 81.--Weeks ago be returned to Toronto and then, with Henry O'Bryne, his trainer, and a few others, went to Pieton, further east along the shore of Lake Ontario, and there he has heen train- 'ing diligently, High-Class Entrants The race, however, is no."ecinch"' for the redoubtable George. Ernest Vierkotter, of Berlin, Germany, is considered probably Young's chief opponent. Vierkotter is a veteran professional with an imposing ree- ord; he has mor, experience than Young and with him swimming is on art. He carries his own chef #8 well as trainer and manager; when he swims, it will be to the music of a respectable sized orches- tra. Vierkotter is the dominant figure SIMCOE ST.

Michel of course holds the record for the English channel. The Women And it it is at all possibly for a woman champion to beat a male champion in swimming, it should he accomplished in the Lake On- tario marathon.

TEAM REVENGED Defeat Whitby 14-4 in Splen- Town Dick Branton's Williams Plano softballers took revenge out of Whitby last night when they invad- ed the County Town and administer- ed a 14 to 4 defeat to the team which defeated them on their own back yard here on Thursday. The Plane men were on top all the way. Although he had sustained the de- feat on Thursday, Hurst was again sent to the mound for Willlams and he showed last night that when at his best, he is worthy match for any team. The game was the second for the championship of A" section of the South Ontario Softball League land Willlams' victory makes a third contest necessary to declare a win- ner. Threa home runs were accounted for by Williams, with two going to Timmins and one to Naylor, The firat came In the second when Tim- mins went to the circuit with nohody above; Mrs, Della Sullivan Herbert, of Holyoke, Mass; Mrs, Dorothy, Hepworth, registered from Mont- real and Lee Fourrier of Long Beach, Cal, are others in the ga- laxy of world stars that will com- pete, Incidentally, Mrs. Schoemmel will wear a bathing suit this time, at least, at the start, No swimmer will be allowed to start sans suit; although he or she may have as much grease as their taste or ex- perience dictate, Th, more bxperi- onced swimmers will use grease, for its ald In preventing "water- logging' and keeping the cold out, Probably also bathing suits will be discarded by quite a numer when the race is really under way, The Course What do they have to do, They | will have to cover 21 miles in water | which will probably be of chilli; | coldness, There are alleviating fac- | tors though, The treacherous cur- rents and cross-shop of the English | channel will be missing; there will | he no kelp-beds such as threatened George Young in the Catalina chan- nel.

Great Public Spectacle It will be a great public spectacle | --the greatest of its kind the world has ever seen. Always, although at times binoculars may be needed, the swimmers will be in sight of the thousands on shore. The one- mile side of the triangle is between shore and the break waters; the other two sides stretch three miles out to the official yacht, where the turn is made. for TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY WANTED -- YOUNG MAN FOR clerical position with knowledge of shorthand amd typewriting.

Pickering in general is rather sor- ry for one incident. The hundreds assembled, absorbed in the effort to get even a fugitive glimpse of the prince, forgot to cheer. They con- sole themselves in the hope that their silence allowed him a few more moments of much needed rest. How the news travelled through- out the district of the royal train's presence is something of a mystery. However, many came from all direc- tions. One little farm girl through Oshawa at 2.36 this moran- ing, did not appear until 3.15 a. m. The train was run on the slowest time consistent with safety in onder to give the princes a thorough rest before . their trying day in Toromte.
