National Water Carnival for Mermaids Aims at Olympics
New York June 13 Samuel J Dallas president of the Amateur Athletic Union outlines a plan for a national water carnival featuring mermaids to prepare contenders for the 1920 Olympic trials. A dual meet would pit New York and Philadelphia women swimmers against top talents from other cities to spur high performance and identify likely Olympic squad members.
