Kelleher lauded his courage and determination. Coach William Legacy discussed practice and conditions, noting Dempsey likely swam about 40 miles due to winds and currents, not the reported 22, and that it took 168000 strokes. The event at the Troy Country Club featured remarks by Murray Dempsey and further notes on prizes and related auto showings in the Bumstead and Knowles sections.
