The Outrigger Canoe Club on the Beach at Waikiki should make history repeat itself. Swimming, diving, surfboarding, outrigger-canoeing, water-polo, aquaplaning, row­ ing, volleyball, track-and-field, horseshoe-pitching, and Hawaiian Hospitality, fea­ tured the Club’s activities of 1925.

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.

  • AQUATIC HAWAII in the OLYMPIC GAMES by Edwin North Mcclellan the Tum Ult Over the Olympic Games of 1952 Has Faded Away
    AQUATIC HAWAII IN THE OLYMPIC GAMES By Edwin North McClellan The tum ult over the Olympic Games of 1952 has faded away. At Helsinki, Fin­ land, swimmers of Hawaii surpassed the performances of the swimmers of any of the forty-eight States; but I rate our 1952-Hawaiian-Team behind 1920 and 1924 in that order. The ten World-Champions from Hawaii, who have won first-place Olympic gold-medals, form a very exclusive and distinguished group—Duke Paoa Kahanamoku, Warren Kealoha, Pua Kealoha (relay), Mariechen Wehselau (relay), Clarence “Buster” Crabbe, Bill Smith, Thelma Kalama (relay), Ford Konno, Yo- shinobu Oyakawa, and Bill Woolsey (relay). All these ten swimmers, as well as others of Hawaii who have scored points in the Olympics, have been nominated as members of the Hawaiian-Aquatic-Hall-of-Fame. In the Forecast, October, 1950, 1 wrote that George "D ad” Center "is among the ‘first ten in the Hawaiian-Hall-of- Fame,’ ” and that Dad “shares with Duke Kahanamoku the honor of being the Outrigger Canoe Club’s ‘most honored member.’ ” The Outrigger Canoe Club, its aquatic athletes, coaches and other members, have performed a fine share of the work as Hawaii achieved its Olympic victories; but the Club and members have much important work in the coming four years. Hawaii looks forward with hop'’ to Melbourne of 1956 and backward to Athens in 1896 and all the other Olymp^ Games between, for inspiration. 1B96— ATHENS, GREECE vin, Tinker, W.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by eVols at University of Hawaii at Manoa ELLEN BARBER FULLARD-LEO THE WATUMULL FOUNDATION ORAL HISTORY PROJECT Ellen Barber Fullard-Leo (1884 - 1974) Ellen Fullard-Leo was an internationally ac­ knowledged and honored promoter of amateur athle­ tics, in which she believed from a missionary's point of view. Her interest in sports developed into a mission when she married Leslie Leo, a well­ known amateur athlete who was also a building con­ tractor and sculptor. Shortly after coming to Hawaii in 1915, they bought an acre of property in a new Waikiki subdi­ vision, Royal Grove, next to famed Ainahau. That property is now the leased site of King's Alley. In 1922, they bought Palmyra Island and, during World War II, provided the United States with a military base there. In 1979, unfortunately, that atoll was being considered as a site for nuclear waste, despite objections of the owners. Leslie Leo did the interior and ornamental work on the Mormon Temple at Laie in 1919. Before he died in 1950, he did his final work on Doris Duke Cromwell's estate on Black Point. This transcript contains Mrs. Fullard-Leo's reminiscences of family, friends, interests, and activities, which not only offer valuable research material but also reveal her character and the ac­ complishments of a lifetime of service to others.

Records, perhaps, that are not known to the generation of today have been given the greatest consideration, and this little volume, the reader must admit, holds every con- ceivable record one would care to know in the well- known sports. It has eliminated the con- sultation of dozens of books, some rather incomplete inso- far as fulfilling the purposes for which they are meant. Every record herein con- tained is authentic and accu- rate, having been obtained from sources which are affiU- ated very closely with that very sport. If the reader obtains as much enjoyment and pleasure from the perusal of Sport-Cyc as the author had in compil- ing same, the purpose of this little volume will not have gone amiss.

  • 1992 Maryland Terrapin
    Toss-ups for the Maryland Terrapin Invitational 1992, from Chicago. 1) "His Family", by Ernest Poole, won the first Pulitzer prize for fiction. "Why Marry?", by Jesse Lynch Williams, won the first Pulitzer prize for drama. And Sara Teasdale's "Love Songs" won a special first prize for poetry. All these first prizes were awarded in the same year. For ten points, name this year of the last Boston Red Sox World Series title. 1918 2) Born in Hillboro, New Hampshire, he graduated from Bowdoin, and soon afterwards entered politics, serving in the House and the Senate. His wife, Jane Means Appleton, despised Washington, leading him to resign in 1842 and go into a successful law practice. But in the Mexican War he became a brigadier general. His anti-abolitionist tendencies got him nominated for president on the 49th ballot of the Democratic convention, as he was palatable to Southerners. For ten points, name this man who defeated Winfield Scott to become the 14th president. Franklin PIERCE 3) The sister of Horace in the Pierre Corneille tragedy "Horace" shared her name with a hurricane of August 1969 which killed over 300 people and with the Americanized name of an Alexandre Duman fils character who scorns the wealthy Count de Varville to escape to the country with her penniless lover Armand Duval. For ten points, give this name, which as a Dumas character was the basis of the Verdi opera "La Traviata". CAMILLE 4) He once said that if Cleopatra's nose had been shaped differently, the his­ tory of the world would have been altered.
