Egyptians Swim Channel Again, Florence Fails WISSANT France (AP) -- Egyp- tian swimmers established two English Channel records Sunday but Florence Chadwick, 33-year- old San Diegp, Calif., typist, who twice has conquered the esting 25 miles, failed in her third attempt. Miss Chadwick, who has swum across the tricky stretch of water in each direction, started out to swim it non-stop both ways. Abd Litif Abou Heif, 23, figured in both records for swimmin g from England to the French coast. He was a member of the six-man Egyptian team which hung up a relay record of 10 hours and 51 iites and then lowered the in- idual mark to 18 hours 45 min- utes. ' Abou Heif swam one of the early legs of about four miles as a mem- ber of the team and shortly after struck out alone from the English shore. A British timer said he had | three easily broken the record of 15 hil | hours, 35 minutes made by Tom Blower of England in 1948. The Egyptian team of Abou elf, El Araby, 36, Abou Bakr, 31, Abdou, 29, M. Hassaan, 9. x! Bakr Soliman, 27, beat their own mark of 11 hours 11 minutes made in 1949. Miss Chadwick was pulled out of the water wan and exhausted, about nine miles off the French coast, after swimming for nine hours and 55 minutes. While the Egyptians and Miss Chadwick were tackling the Eng- land-to-France route, Damian Piza Beltran, former night club crooner from Mexico, swam from France to England/in 15 hours, 20 min- utes. Touflic Bleik, a 22-year-old Leb- anese civil servant, swam the chan- nel, also from France to England, Monday. He waded ashore at St. Mar- garet's Bay beach near Dover and thus became the 77th individual to make the journey since they started keeping score of the strange business back in 1875.

To date, major league teams have played before 9,850,232 custo- mers. Last year, they drew 9,850,- 971 at a comparable period. That's a drop of only 9,739.
