You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

  • Aileen Riggin Soule: a Wonderful Life in Her Own Words
    Aileen Riggin Soule: A Wonderful Life In her own words The youngest U.S. Olympic champion, the tiniest anywhere Olympic champion and the first women's Olympic springboard diving champion was Aileen Riggin. All these honors were won in the 1920 Olympics by Miss Riggin when she had just passed her 14th birthday. If no woman started earlier as an amateur champion, certainly no woman pro stayed on the top longer. Aileen Riggin never waited for opportunities to come her way. In 1924 at Paris, she became the only girl in Olympic history to win medals in both diving and swimming in the same Olympic Games (silver in 3 meter springboard and bronze in 100 meter backstroke). She turned pro in 1926, played the Hippodrome and toured with Gertrude Ederle’s Act for 6 months after her famous Channel swim. She made appearances at new pool openings and helped launch “learn to swim programs” around the world. She gave diving exhibitions, taught swimming, ledtured and wrote articles on fashion, sports, fitness and health for the New York Post and many of the leading magazines of her day. She also danced in the movie "Roman Scandals" starring Eddie Cantor and skated in Sonja Henie's film "One in a Million." She helped organize and coach Billy Rose's first Aquacade in which she also starred, at the 1937 Cleveland Exposition. She was truly a girl who did it all. When in 1996, while attending the Olympic Games in Atlanta as America’s oldest Olympic Gold medalist, she was asked if she still had any goals left in life, she said: "Yes.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

Swimming in the public bath houses was as much a part of Roman life as drinking wine. At first, bathing was segregated by gender, with no mixed male and female bathing, but by the mid second century, men and women bathed together in the nude, which lead to the baths becoming notorious for sexual activities. 600 A.D. - With the gothic conquest of Rome and the destruction of the Aquaducts that supplied water to the public baths, the baths close.

Q: Tell me about your childhood. A: It’s diffi cult to pinpoint my childhood. Perhaps I should start when I was 11 because that’s when I started swimming competition and we were living in New York City. I was of very delicate health. I went through the Spanish infl uenza epidemic that occurred during 1917 and ‘18. This was the greatest scourge that ever hit the world, but very few people know about it now. It killed more people than died in World War II, World War I and II, I think. My doctor suggested swimming, but this wasn’t easy living in New York, except in the summer time. So we found a small pool in a little hotel, it was in the Brooklyn Heights, where we were living at that time. It was just by chance that a club was forming. It was really a club of businesswomen who wanted a place to exercise and swim after they were fi nished with their work in the daytime.

  • Settlement Houses to Olympic Stadiums: Jewish American Women, Sports and Social Change, 1880S-1930S1
    Settlement Houses to Olympic Stadiums: Jewish American Women, Sports and Social Change, 1880s-1930s1 Linda J. Borish Western Michigan University Kalamazoo, USA The story of Jewish women in American sport remains scarcely explored in women’s history, sport history, and American Jewish history, Jewish American females, as participants and administrators, altered and expanded sporting opportunities for Jewish American women and girls. In some cases, Jewish women even advocated for greater access to sports for the female gender, increasing sporting pursuits for Jewish and non-Jewish women and girls. In the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century, at Jewish settlement houses and at Young Men’s-Young Women’s Hebrew Associations, middle-class reformers designed programs to promote Jewish American women’s physical health and sport as part of the Americanization of lower-class female immigrants within Jewish social and religious contexts. The experiences of Jewish women in American life need to be explored to better understand women’s roles in sport in American society. Whether engaging in sports for physical health, competition between Jewish or non Jewish teams, or representing athletic prowess on national teams, Jewish American women’s sporting activities provide a valuable lens to investigate the multifaceted place of sports for women in American culture and history as well as offering insight on the ways gender, ethnicity, religion, and social class shape sporting experiences in international contexts. Jewish organizations in the United States and other countries, formed for various reasons including immigration aid, promotion of Jewish religiosity, preservation of ethnic practices in leisure and foodways, reveal important connections to the kinds of sports played by women and girls, and how some Jewish women and girls made significant contributions to the sporting culture for Jewish and non-Jewish females in local, national, and some times international forums such as the Olympic Games.
