CHICAGO, Not. ..J3y The
Associated Press)- Not long ago
the newspapers recorded the fact
that Miss Sybil Bauer, 17-year-old
Chicago girl, had "swam the 440
. yard backstroke in a meet In Ber
muda ,ln 6:24,' breaking:, for the
first time In Tecorded athletic his
tory,: !. world's record held : by a
man,; -The old mark of 4:2$ was
heldjoy "Stubby" Krueger., ,
" y ' ff j I Great Developer.'- 'J7-,! ,
Behind that bare announcement
is the story of a coach. who can't
swim the 440, or probably half
that distance, but who has brought
out many of the most famous
swimmers in recent years, includ
ing Miss Bauer, Johnny Welsmuel
ler, Norman Jlo&s, Perry JtfcGU

V. Once, n nls early days, "Bach"
was a great "third place athlete,"
he -says.. Back in 1897 he made
his only appearance in a national
swimming .tournament,) entering
the 100 yard swim i in a meet in
Lincoln' Park, lagoon here. There
were four entries and' Bachrach
won his one :' and only swimming
medal when he finished third

Now, weignlnK'lrj-Is own ad

er armchair beside- the I. A. C.
tank and trains promising young
sters to break all the swimming
records from the Bermudas to
Honolulu.' Once a jnonth;OT so'
when they fjflpthe iak" p to il

drops in with a'mighty' splash 'arid
does a round or two, but that Is
about the extent of his own .water

Tells Secret of Snccees.
"Anybody can be a good swim
mer if he has the will to work and
work hard,", Bachrach says. "He
may not be a champion,' tor It Just
isn't born In some, people to be
champions, but if he is willing tor
ping along day In and day: out and
stick to the deadly grind he will
be a good .swimmer. - v
, "The trouble- Is ' that lots .of
j swimmers, and sometimes those
'with most natural talent, haren't

"What Is the secret of your;sae
, cess as a coach?" he was asked.
"Making them work day; In aid

swim a quarter of a mile a. day. I

"If swimmer swims 300 quar
ter miles in a year that's 75 miles.
Nobody can swim 75 miles, a year
without developing. They are
bound to learn something.
, Gets 'Em Going.
"I, sit up here and watch them
swim their 11 laps, and when th$y
come out I talk things over and
point out their mistakes and sug
gest improvements. That' all
theri is to it
f principle Is to get them
young. Sybil Bauer came to us
four, years ago when she wasn't
quite' 14 years old. We had an
nounced through the newsnaners
;lhat we were going to organize a
class for girls, and invited swim
mers to apply; She was in the
class. One day I saw her iiir
the back stroke, and doing very
well with it. We talked It over
andshe decided she wanted to be
the world's greatest back Btroke
swimmer. Today she is."
Great Swimmers Born.
Bachrach passes over his own
Inability to rank above the medi
ocre swimmers with the explana
tion that the best coaches dotft

Most of the famous swimmers
developed under bis tutelage are
products of the Chicago public
beaches and T. M. C. A: poola.

one of his teams told Bachrach
