The Swedish hosts were outstanding and put on a terrific show. The idea of a temporary pool in an existing indoor arena is definitely a winner. Curiously, it was talked about in the early 1970s when Montreal was planning to host the Olympics in 1976. treal Forum was an earl) possibility.

Karin Helmstaedt worked for the organizing committee in media support, providing flash quotes from the medallists within minutes of finishing their races. Karin wrote the storj of the competition, with day-by-day reports based on my observations during the finals. Prominent athletes were interviewed by Karin for the personality profiles throughout this issue. I had been specially invited to provide "Start Lists" to the several hundred journalists present, as well as the team coaches and officials. This has become a specialty and a by-product of producing world rankings, annuals, etc. Each event has a summary sheet with biographies of the finalists, as well as current rankings ( including any times from the preliminaries), all-time lists, continental records, etc. I have been invited to the European Championships next August in Sevilla. Spain and the World Championships next January in Perth, Australia to provide same. This work has become easier since the entry form has been redesigned to allow for each athlete to provide such information as: birthdate, place of birth, height, weight, occupation, hometown, coach, etc. Marco Chiesa was given deck access, along with a handful of agency photographers (Reuters, etc), moving him to the elite level of specialists covering the sport. Ten years ago when he covered the 1986 World Championships in Madrid, he was ranked 154th among the photographers, condemned to fight for a spot at every session and having to shoot into the sun during the finals. His outstanding work illustrates every page of our championship story. Anita Lonsbrough, our English correspondent, was in Goteborg, writing stories for The Daily Telegraph in London, and providing us with a couple of profiles. Most of this information, especially the results after the prelims and finals, together with a summary article of the evening's highlights, was sent to Toronto from poolside by Marco Chiesa to up-date our website, which was at its busiest ever during the week of the championships. Our evenings would end around 1 1 p.m. with a mad scramble to find a place still open to have dinner. The city shuts down early for the night. All of this required long days from all of us. But the satisfaction of a job well done and the positive feedback we have received is our reward. This issue has the second part (of three) on the 50-year saga of the breaststroke rules, with the struggle for recognition of the butterfly as a fourth stroke in the immediate post war years as this month's topic. The TOP program has participation from the first ever foreign club. The Ginninderra SC in Canberra, Australia entered 1 1 swimmers. Watch for more foreign teams taking part in the future. Karin Helmstaedt went to a regional long course meet outside of Paris in Sarcelles and talked with Franziska van Almsick. GER and Michelle Smith, IRL. Long Course TAG is thin, as few results have been received. Remember to send your results as soon after the meet, by courier if at all possible. Always send a print-out, no diskettes. It takes too long to get a hard copy printed. .Anita Lonsbrough writes on the GBR European Championships Trials held the weekend before Goteborg. James Hickman, who won the 200 butterfly in Sweden, was upset in both fly events by Stephen Parry, fresh from winning the NCAAs 200 fly during March.

SWIMNEWS / MAY 1997 Opening ceremonies at the 3rd Ericsson World Short Course Championships in Gdteborg, Sweden Marco Chiesa EIGHT WORLD RECORDS DETTERED 500 SWIMMERS FROM 70 COONTRIES TAKE PART Karin Helmstaedt GOTEBORG— The 1997 Short Course Swimming World Championships "came together," so to speak, April 17-20 in the Scandinavian arena. Compared with the two previous editions of this event, the high-calibre turnout was impressive. Over 500 swimmers from 70 different countries flocked to Goteborg — up from 46 in Palma de Mallorca in 1993 and 56 in Rio de Janeiro in 1995. Nations competing for the first time included Austria, Barbados, Mexico, Pakistan, Singapore, Thailand, and Uzbekistan. Top swimming nations such as China, Australia, and Rus- sia brought large teams, and the presence of a majority of defending champions attested to the fact that many, if not most, are taking these championships seriously. Indeed, those who brushed them off as "second rate" had little to say when the four days were over. They were also the second such championships to be held in a temporary pool, and it seems clear that this will be an obvious option in the future; the greater spectator capacity of such an arrangement is not only positive for the organizers but also for the profile ol the sport. The stands in Goteborg were nearly filled on Thursday and Friday, and the weekend was sold out. The 8-lane pool, provided by the Swedish com- pany Invarmex Steel AB, was installed in the already existing Scandinavian only lOdays before the compe- tition. It took up half of the hockey arena andspectator seating around the pool was for approximately 6000. The pool structure weighed more than 1000 tons, and the tank held short of a million litres of water. The water was pumped in from a neighbouring SO m training pool. Construction of the pool took 72 hours, as did the dismantling when the meet was over. In just a few days the arena was transformed yet again lor a horse show. This was the meet where the Swedes strutted their stuff for a thundering home crowd; the fans were equipped with flags, noisemakers, cheerleaders, and bodypaint, and the charged atmosphere made for a brilliant meet. The Swedes took gold on all but one night, and countless swimmers of all nationalities commented on how the fantastic crowd had pumped them up. Itwas the meet where defending world champion Claudia Poll of Costa Rica left nodoubt (was there any left at all?) as to her prowess. Long course or short course, Poll's perfonnances are always technically noteworthy, and herexploits in Goteborg left us simply breathless. She was truly the swimmer and performer of the meet, even if the awarding of a "best perform- ance" trophy (based on the performance tables, and misused in this instance) to American JennyThompson implied otherwise. While reigningworld champion and world record- holder Jingyi Le of China was not up to the challenge of American or German forces, she and her teammates hardly slouched. World record relays were among the tricks they had up their sleeves. Finally, Goteborg was the site of another FINA Bureau meeting, and the resulting competition calen- dar will leave little time for doodling. Long course World Championships will be held every two years (instead of four) following Perth, and short course World Championships will be held in 1999, 2000, 2002, and 2004. Unfortunately for Canada, Edmonton lost out on its bid to host the 1999 edition of this competition; that rendezvous is slated for I long Kong, which by that time will be holding its own under China's umbrella, lint given the above. Edmonton's turn will soon come1 SWIMNEWS/ MAY 1997 5 TWO RELAY WORLD RECORDS FALL K.irm Helmstaedl GOTEBORG — The first night of finals at the 3rd Kricsson World Short Course Championships saw a ganit night of racing, with world reconls in the final two events of the evening. Hie story of the morning had been world record- holder Denis Pankratov's failure to advance to the final of the men's 100 butterfly . The Russian surfaced unusually early on the first 25 and was unable to give his usual acceleration. Sweden's Lars Frolander stole die heat from lane 1. setting a new champion- ship record of 52.10. While Pankratov refused to comment af- ter the race, it was clear that he had not seen Frolander's lead. In the final, the early leader, 18-year-old Nate Dusing (USA), was overtaken by a pumped up Frolander on the third length. In a very close finish. Frolander touched out Geoff Huegill (AUS). The moment was marred for the home crowd, however, as Austral- ian Michael Klim'stouchpadmal- functioned and he was given first place, and an unrealistically fast time of 50. 1 . There was momen- tary confusion as Omega timing's back-up video system was re- viewed. Finally. Frolander's win- ning time of 5 1 .95 was conf i rmed with Klim third in 52.02. Huegill posted an impressive 5 1 .99 for the silver. "Everybody with eyes could see that somethingwaswrongwith the times on the scoreboard," said the Swedish coach . Hans Ch runak, and it was in away a disappoint- ment. .After all. the difference on the board indicates around 3 me- tres in the water..." Frolander's time, an "almost perfect'' race, was the second fast- est time ever. To tell you the truth. I should have been satisfied with the silver medal," he admitted. "It was quite impossible to say if 1 finished first or second, but that it was all wrong on the scoreboard was obvious." Canadian men hadagreatshowing in this event, with both a veteran and a rookie in the final. Eddie Parenti swam his best time in the morning (53 09) and bettered it again in the final to 52.71 for seventh. 19-year-old Garrett Pulle, in his first international appearance, followed Parenti's example, with a morning PB of 53. 17, and an impressive 52.74 for eighth place. First gold for Sweden's Lars Frolander in men's 100 butterfly Pankratov won the B final in 52.48. The women's 200 butterfly was something new against the old tried and true. American Misty Hyman's underwater fish-kick was sufficient to gain the lead for the first half of the race, taking one stroke on the first length and then seven or eight in all subsequent lengths, kicking about one half of the total 200 m distance. But at the 125 m mark, Hitomi Kashima (JPN) took a slight lead and held it until the final length when veteran Limin Liu (CHN), swimming in lane one, moved ahead to win in 2:07.20. Kashima touched in 2:07.34 and Hyman in 2:07.54. "I lost a little on my breakouts on the last 100," said asmilingHyman afterward. "I took eight strokes instead of seven. I don't know if it was nerves or what, but it was fun though!" Canada's Jessica Deglau improved yet again on her best time and was seventh in 2:10.73- Defending world cham- pion Gustavo Borges (BRA) was never threatened in the men's 200 freestyle, dominating the race from the first 50. New Zea- land's Trent Bray was second, with Lars Conrad (GER) hold- ing onto third from the 150. Borges' time of 1:45.45 was a personal best and a successful defence of his title from 1995. "Sure, the last gold medal (in Rio) was pretty special be- cause it was home in Brazil, there were 10.000 people, the sun and the beach.. .it was re- ally nice. But I give full credit to this gold medal. This is a difficult year for swimming, after an Olympic Games. One of my goals after the Games was to have a good 1997, and I'm achieving that." Of his history of coming third behind absent rivals Alex Popov (RUS) and Gary Hall (USA), Borges said, "I never swim to come third. I swim to win. Unfortunately at the Ol- ympics I didn't win, but I'm training to 2000 with one goal in mind, to win the gold medal." Bray's time was 1:45.81 and Conrad's was 1:46.44. The women's 100 frees tyle had Sandra Volker of Germany as the early leader, splitting Marco chiesa 25.23 at the 50. She was chal- 6 SWIMNEWS I MAY 1997 Jenny Thompson, USA, at the start of women's 100 freestyle, where she won the gold Marco Chiesa lenged on the last length by defending world cham- pion Jingyi Le (CHN) and American veteran Jenny Thompson , who touched first in 53.46. Volker held on to second in 53-50, with Le third in 53-72. For Thompson, who was swimming her first competition in short course metres, this was no doubt a sweet win over Le. "I'm actually pretty surprised that I won," she said. "I thought I was fading at the end." The men's 400 individual medley was an easy win for Matthew Dunn (AUS). He had the lead from start to finish and his time of 4:06.79 was a new championship record. China's Xufeng Xie took the silver by overtaking Christian Keller (GER) on the freestyle leg. Xie's time was 4: 12.52, an Asian record, while Keller tied for third with Ron Karnaugh (USA), a30-year-old medical student. Their third place time was a very close 4: 1 2.53- "I'm a little tired but feeling quite good considering it's the second fastest time I've ever done," said Dunn. "The last time I swam it I was just off the world record and it was a tough swim. I was Joanne Malar, CAN, swam for bronze in 400 I.M. hoping to go close to the world record but I think the race was missing that little something to push me at the end." Emma Johnson (AUS) followed up Dunn's vic- tory by battling her way to the gold in the women's 400 individual medley. She had the lead up to the 200 when Sabine Herbst ( GER ) made her move and edged ahead. With 50 metres to go, Johnson was .VI 00 of a second behind, but pulled ahead on the last 50 to win in 3:35.18. Herbst took silver with 4:36.02. while "M defending world champion Joanne Malar of Canada had to settle for the bronze with 4:37.46. The men's 4x100 medley relay was a battle between Australia (in the lead) anil Russia, with Greal Britain giving chase. The Aussies took the lead with Adrian Radley's backstroke leg and never lost it. Russia began closing the gap on the free- style leg but Michael Klim. swimming Ins third event of the night, put in a huge effort (47.20) to put the Aussies beyond reach. Their final time of 3:30.66 was a newworld record. China easily won the women's h\2()() freestyle relay as the lour women posted a new world record of 7:5 1 l)2. And in a fitting climax lor the first day's final, Sweden touched out Australia , . lor the silver. Marco Chiesa SWIMNEWS / MAY 1997 7 | PERSONALITY PROFILE: MISTY HYMAN | SKILL AMD II m DVATI ON GOT ME TO THIS LEVEL K.inu HehnstMul Aiiwricui but!ertl> seiis;ition MisU1 H\Tiian ainie to Goteborg to try her original technique on the world, ;uul while it didn't get her the gold she had hoped for. she had ever}' journalist and many others straining to get a better view of her con uwrsial stroke. The 18 year old from Phoenix. Arizona, has been swimming butterfly with a long underwater kick — what she calls an "extended breakout" — since 1993. But after writing for se\eral years on the technique used by world record-holder Denis Pankratov. Mel Stewart and others, Hyman took things a step further last year. gvc | ■ | wm . Inspired bv;ui article in Sci- ;. entific .American on tliemechan- I ics of fish swimming. Hyman's I coach. Bob Gillett. suggested that she turn onto her side to better mimic the way a fish propels it- self through the water. "We basically looked at why .„ --^STTSDOi fish are so efficient," Hyman ex- plains. "The scientists who wrote the article built a mechanical fish and studied the vortices produced by a fish's tail." The upward and downward motion of the feet and legs in a traditional dolphin kick produce similar vortices, in opposing di- rections, which help propel the swimmer through the water. The vortices act like a current, colliding with the surface of the water and the bottom of the pool, thereby creating more turbulence and resistance for the swimmer. "We figured that by doing a dolphin kick on my side and producing the current in a sideways direction, there would be much more space around me (from wall to wall) for the current to travel and lose force," says Hyman. "It's called a fish-kick, and it feels like it's more efficient." Her spectacular world record performance (58.29) at the Canadian Open in December seemed to support that observation. While the technique was difficult to learn, with the main problem being to remain in a straight line, after more than a year of practice Hyman says it feels natural. In a short course butterfly race Hyman takes only one stroke on the first 25 metres. Ideally, she takes seven strokes on all subsequent lengths in the 100, as compared to ten strokes in the 200. As to the controversial nature of her stroke. Hvman defends her case well. "I feel like there is such potential to go faster under water "shesays, "and thatwith the applications to freestyle, we could take swimming to a new level." She explains, "I'm not six feet tall, and for me to compete, I have to do il the best way for me. Skill and innovation were what got me to this level. My coach and I developed this and we re not breaking an} rules lnfact,lotS of people are doing the underwater. I think it would be a shame if they changed the rule (to limit the distance of the underwater kick) but if they did 1 would just have to change my training." At present Hyman works out a majority of butterfly, ming, Thompson commented, "It used to make me a bit uncomfortable because they get such a lead. But I know it hurts them in the end because of the lactate buildup in the muscles. 1 've had a lot of success swimming on top of the water, and although 1 have started to do a longer underwa- ter off the start, I'll never be an underwater swimmer." Hyman 's comment on lactate buildup was, "Given my training, I don't think it's a problem. I've done 3000 metres butterfly in training with ten kicks off every turn the whole way. I think I might have been a bit nervous here." Despite the nerves and the disappointments, Hyman was a sterling example of American charm in Goteborg, with an uneraseable smile and an unquenchable enthusi- asm forthe competition. "I'm just really happy to be here!" she beamed. Because there have certainly been obstacles. Hyman, who started swimming at the age of six to help her chronic asthma, discovered two months ago that she also suffers from n umerous food al lergies. She is now extremely careful Perfecting the fish-kick was key tn her success with a lot of underwater and monofin training. She disa- grees that underwater swimming takes away from the sport on a visual level. "I think it's really exciting to see who is going to come up ahead!" Two weeks before Goteborg, 1 5-year-old Ayari Aoyama of Japan swam the 100 butterfly — also with extended breakouts — in aworld record timeof 58.24. Hyman mused that her own record had been so short-lived that she had bad little time to get used to the idea before losing it. But while Aoyama's record awaited ratification, Hyman's record was shattered by the first four finishers in the Swedish final — the gold and silver medallists swim- ming the race in the traditional above-water fashion. In fact, two world records were established in the same race: Hyman 'sfirst 50 wasablistering26.55, while herteammate, veteran Jenny Thompson, posted a startling 57.79. Hyman managed a best time of 57.95 to take the bronze. Not bad. when asked how she felt about the underwater swim- Marco Chiesa about what she eats, adding, "I've brought a lot of my own food (to Sweden). I've cut out eggs, wheat, and dairy products, and I really have noticed a difference since I stopped eating them." Meticulous and methodical, despite her bubbly exte- rior, Hyman has her game plan. After Sweden she heads home for her high school graduation in May. Then her sights are set on qualifying for the Pan Pacific Champion- ships. The fall will find her at Stanford University, the old stomping grounds of rival Thompson. She plans to study International Business, a decision that she says was prob- ably motivated by swimming. "I love to travel, and swimming has opened so many doors for me," she says. "I've had so many experiences. I just turned 18 at the end of March, and I've already been so many places!" Wherever Hyman turns up next, you'll likely spot the smile first. 5 SWIMNEWS / MAY 1997 PERSONALITY PROFILE: CHAD CARVIN HAPPY JUST TO BE SWIMMING Russ Kw aid Chad Carvin was speeding down the road to Atlanta. As a sophomore at the University of Arizona, Carvin bettered long-standing U.S. records in the distance freestyles at the NCAA Championships in 1 994. He twice smashed the nine-year-old record in the 500 freestyle (4:13.06) held by USC's Mike O'Brien, the 1984 Olympic gold medalist in the 1500 freestyle, going 4: 12.44 in the prelims and 4:1 1.59 in the final. His swim in the final also cracked the U.S. Open mark (4:11.59) of Iowa's Artur Wojdat, the 1988 Olympic silver medalist in the 400 freestyle from Poland. In the 1650 freestyle, Carvin eclipsed the eight-year-old record ( 14:37.87) of Stanford's Jeff Kostoff with a time of 14:34.91. Former U.S. Olympic coach Peter Daland called Carvin'sperformances "a major breakthrough fordistance swimming in America." Carvin followed up by turning in the second-fastest times in the world for 1995 in the middle distances. He won the 200 metre freestyle at the U.S. summer nationals in 1:48.41 and lost the 400 freestyle by just six hundredths to John Piersma with a time of 3:48.78. He also took second in the 1500 freestyle (15:22.42). Carvin was ranked second in the U.S. ( 10th in the world) in the 1500 (15:20.32) andthirdnationally (ninth in the world) in the 400 individual medley. "I thought he was a cinch to make the U.S. Olympic team," says Arizonacoach Frank Busch. But one October day in 1995, Carvin had a sluggish workout. He felt a fatigue like never before. It was one thing to be tired from hard training. But this felt different. When he hadn't even done a hard practice, he experienced diffi- culty breathing. His training went progressively |||ness down from there. He went to the University Medi- cal Center and took a series of blood tests. All were negative. The doctors first thought he might have mono or chronic fatigue syndrome. Carvin kept training, but his times got slower and his strength diminished. Another series of tests came up nega- tive. The mystery illness began to play games with Garvin's mind. By early December, he could barely make it through warmups. "I was embarrassed every day in practice," Carvin recalls. "I couldn't figure anything out. I was dreading everything and didn't want to show my face on the pool deck. I was real depressed." So depressed he attempted an overdose on over-the- counter sleeping pills. While in the hospital recovering from the overdose, a heart test revealed a virus had worked its way into the left ventricle of Carvin's heart. He was suffering from an illness called congestive cardiomyopa- thy. His heart was pumping out blood at a very low rate. Dr. Robert Liebowitz, an internist at the medical center, recommended complete bed rest and medication forCarvin. The Arizona student was told to cut back on his class schedule to two classes that met two days a week each. He was given a parking spot close to his classes so he only had to walk a few feet. Swimming, or any exercise, was out of the question. In three months, he would probably know his fate: he had a third of a chance of getting better — a third of staying the same, and a third of getting worse. If his condition stayed the same or got worse, he might have been a candidate for a heart transplant, says Liebowitz. "Once I found out, the last thing on my mind was swimming," says Carvin. "I was relieved that I didn't have to show up (at the pool) anymore. I was real tired. I didn't have much energy for anything." The first month of recovery Carvin slept 14 or 1 5 hours a day. Besides his studies, he spent most of the other time resting and reading the hundreds of getwell cards from everyone from President Clinton to actor Tom Hanks but mostly from the swimming community, including two- time Olympic gold medallists Kieren Perkins of Australia and Brian Goodell, his boyhood idol. And Carvin prayed every night. In March, the hospital tests showed his condition had forced Carvin out of the sport, but he's back markedly improved. He felt good again, too. He started riding his bike and skateboarding. But he wasn't sure he wanted to start swimming again. "What was fresh in my mind were the two months before I stopped," he says. "I thought I can't swim if I feel like that in the water." Nevertheless, Carvin returned to the pool a couple of weeks later. At the beginning, each day seemed like a year. His muscles weren't used to swimming. But his strength began returning in two to three weeks while working out just once a day. "1 don't know why I went back," he reflects. To see how I would feel, I guess." In July at his home pool, Carvin swam a 400 metre freestyle in 3:55.6 1 to make him the sixth-fastest American in 1996. The next month he watched the Olympics on TV. "I was disappointed I couldn't be there, but I enjoyed watching the races," he says. The six-foot-two-inch swimmer, who grew up in Laguna Hills in Southern California, began doing double workouts in October. Because his senior season at Arizona had been cut short due to the illness, he petitioned the NCAA for another year of eligibility. Although he was turned down, he didn't lose the drive to make a comeback. This February, Carvin became the second swimmer since Mark Spitz to win fourevents at a U.S. championships when he captured the 200 (1:50.42), 400 (3:52.19) and 1500 (15:29.44) freestyles and 400 IM (4:21.77) in Buffalo. The 200 and 400 IM wins came only 45 minutes apart. He didn't have much competition, though, because the colle- giate swimmers didn't attend the meet. In April at the World Short Course Championships in Goteburg, Sweden, Carvin took second in the 400 freestyle He lost to Denmark's Jacob Carstensen by 29/100 of a second with atimeof 3:4373. In the400 IM prelims, hewas disqualified for an uneven butterfly after finishing second in 4: 12. He passed up the 200 and placed fourth in the 1 500 (14:56.10). Carvin shaved for both meets. The latest echo cardiogram shows Carvin has a nor- mal heart again. "We have every reason to believe this was a one-time problem," Liebowitz says. Busch thinks his pupil is now training within five percent of his previous level. Carvin gets pushed in practice from UgurTaner, gold medallist on the U.S. 800 relay at the 94 Worlds, and South African Ryk Neethling, the NCAA champ in the 1650 as an Arizona freshman. Carvin is going from 12,000 to 14,000 metres aday compared to 14,000 to :w. 16,000 in the past, although, because the team works a lot off of intensity, mileage is not a precise indicator. "I'm not quite at my fitness level," says ]arvin. "I think that may have a lot to do with confidence. Once you start swimming fast and winning at some meets, your confidence goes up and your training reflects that." His goal is to qualify for the U.S. teams for the Pan Pacific and World Championships. Both squads will be selected off the U.S. sum- mer nationals thisjuly in Nashville, Tennessee. "I'm looking forward to trying to make the World Championships because they are selecting the team so far in advance," says Carvin. "You'll have all that time to train and be able to compete on a first shave." In the past, Carvin found it difficult to peak for the international meets coming so soon after nationals. He finished eighth in the 200, 1 2th in the 400 and 10th in the 1 500 at the 1994 World Championships in Rome and took bronze medals in the middle distances and a fourth in the 1 500 at the 1995 Pan Pacific meet in Atlanta. But it won't be the end of the world if Carvin doesn't make it to Perth. "Chad has a different outlook," says Busch. "Where it used to be 'where does life fit into swimming,' it's now 'where does swimming fit into life.' " Carvin graduated from Arizona this May with a busi- ness degree. He majored in management information systems. He's being helped financially by a recent agree- ment with TYR Sports to endorse its swimwear. Carvin says, "Before, I would put a lot of pressure on myself and not accept having a bad day. Now, if I'm swimming well, I'm happy. But if I'm having bad days, I'm still prettj happy."

Of course I am disappointed that I didn't win because that is what I wanted todo. But I am happy for Sandra, it was a good swim.'' "I am very satisfied with my third place," Jingyi Lesaid. "I only began my hard training three months before I came to Goteborg."

Carstensen's time was 3:43-44, with Carvin in second (3:4373) and Hackett in third (3:43-83). It was an unexpected result. "I am very sur- prised," Carstensen said. "I thought it went very well all the way. I was hoping for a better time. I didn't expect to win. I just wanted to swim faster than this morning." Carvin thought he had the gold. "I have never swum short course before so it was a best time. It was a good race but I didn't see Carstensen coming up because I was breathing on the other side. Honestly. I thought I had won." 16-year-old Grant Hackett, the bronze medallist, said, "I am really happy with the swim although I'm a bit disappointed with third place. I'm still really young so I think I've got a lot of strength to build." When Claudia Poll stood behind the blocks for the 200 freestyle, it was obvious she was ready.

Several people, including Aus- tralian star Adrian Radlej . weredis- qualified during the World Cup for the same reason. Nevertheless, Volker took the decision well. The Chinese consequently moved up to the top spots. I longhua Lu took the gold with 59-75 and Yan Chen the silver with 1:00.14. De- fending champion Misty Hyman (USA) picked up her second medal of the championships with 1:00.17 for the bronze. Neisser Bent, CUB, won 100 and 200 backstrokes Marco Chiesa length and shattered her own world record with a 1:54.17, a second- and-a-half improvement. Then came an unprecedented emotional outburst, as Poll jumped out of the pool to run toward her coach, Francisco Rivas, who stood in the stands, mobile phone and video camera in hand. The two embraced for several minutes while the crowd applauded. Years of work, including an Olympic gold, have cemented their relationship. Poll then gleefully returned to the poolside and acknowledged the crowd. "I knew I could do it about three weeks ago because I was doing under 2 minutes in training," she said. "My coach knew it earlier, but I didn't believe him right away!" When asked about her plans for the following day's 400 freestyle, she replied with a grin, "I'll see how I wake up tomorrow, how my body reacts to a 1:54.17!" Last summer in Atlanta, the Cuban backstrokers took silver and bronze in the 100 backstroke; when asked if this would make them sport he- roes back home, Neisser Bent responded than only winners could be heroes. The short wait is over, as he took the gold in a hard-fought 200 backstroke. Vladimir Selkov (RUS) had the lead for seven lengths with top qualifier Wei Wang (CHN) in close pursuit. Bent had paced the race perfectly, com- ing on strong in the second half and saving the best for the last length. Gold medallist Bent said, took "I was a bit tired from the relay race yesterday, it easy in the heats to be ready for the finals." Disappointed bronze medallist Vladimir Selkov said, "It was hard — I felt very heavy. It was not good because I lost it on the last 50." After a six week training camp in France (3 weeks at altitude and 3 weeks at sea level), the Russian team was paying the price. With the focus of their preparation the Euro- pean trials in May, they were unable to be at theirbest, whether they liked it or not. The women's 100 backstroke was easily won by Sandra Volker, but marred by her subsequent dis- qualification. She kicked underwater beyond the 15 m mark, and afterward admitted having been over the line. "Yes, I knew it because I could feel I was over the line." She added that she thought the decision was The men's 4x200 free relay was to be Swedish veteran freestyler Anders Holmertz's last swim. After an impressive career that included four Olympic Games, Holmertz retired after the competition. It was a bit of a disappointment as they managed only a second place behind the charged Australians, who established the first FINA record for the event with 7:02.74. An overjoyed Hackett said. "It's unbeliev- able, I can't explain it really!" Klim added sagely, "It's very rewarding to swim faster than yesterday." Natasha Bowron (AUS) made easy work of the longest women's race. She won the 800 freestyle and wasneverchallenged. The race was for second. At first Rachel Harris (AUS) and Carta Geurts (NED) battled for second, but Kerstin Kielgass (GER) moved to second at the 500 and held it until the end.

Natasha first came to the fore in January of this year when she was a member of the Australian team at the World Cup meets. Then the Aussies predicted "Natasha is the best young distance freestyle pros- pect since Hayley Lewis in 1990." But did diey believe that within four months she would be a World Short Course champion? On their prediction, the teenager herself believes "It would be nice to live up to it. Hayley was so good at a young age." Bom on January 31, 1982, in Sydney, Natasha has an older sister Bianca who is her number one supporter. Like most families who have children who swim, it is a family affair. Her morning alarm goes at •1:30 and 45 minutes later, taken by her father, she is in the water training for two hours. Breakfast fol- lowed by school is next on the agenda. Natasha Women's 800 free medal winners: Kerstin Kielgass, GER, Natasha Bowron, AUS, Carla Marco Chiesa Bowron in impressive international debut spends another two hours in the water after school. Before bed, dinner and homework have to be fit in. There was no need for Natasha, the youngest member of the team, to be homesick at the World Short Course Championships, since mum and dad, the ever-devoted parents, made the journey to Swe- den. If they were not enough, one of her schoolmates and t rai n i ng partner, Km m a Johnson , was also on the team. Both are coached by Brian Wilkinson at the Wilkinson club. They train at the Sydney Aquatic Centre, venue for the 2000 Olympic Games, where Natasha hopes to be one of Australia's many Olympic gold-medal winners. Going into the championships, her best 800 freestyle time was 8:30.35 giving her hope of a medal. As she admitted, "I thought I had a good chance but youdon'texpecttowin, you hope to win!" She went into the time final trying to treat it "just like any other race." Her first reaction Marco Chiesa medal on the bedside table in her room that she shared with Rebecca Brown was no dream — it was for real. In the 400 freestyle she qualified first for the final, but could not match the speed of Olympic 200 free- style gold medallist Claudia Poll of Costa Rica. Natasha's time of 4:05.76 brought her silver. But in her first year on the international scene, a gold and a silver at a world championships is a very impressive start to a bright sporting career. Life at home in Australia is very regimented and at times she gets envious of her friends who have time for social lives. But she just thinks to herself "How many of them have been all around Europe and I'm only 15." Like any other teenager, she has her heroes and heroines. These are Carl Lewis and Nicole Stevenson. But she is also aware of the history and heritage that Australian swimminghas,namingsuch great cham- pions as Murray Rose, Dawn Fraser. John Devitt, and Duncan Amistrong — a group of which she wants to be a part. Natasha Bowron 's motivation is so great that she never feels she wants to take too much of a break from the sport. Her aim, as it is for most Australians, is the 2000 Olympic Games in her home city, Sydney, when she believes "I'll be at a pretty good age." '2 SWIMNEWS/MAY 1997 PERSONALITY PROFILE: CLAUDIA POLL PARTY TIME IN SAN JOSE Rivas was misty-eyed over his prodigy's achieve- ments, saying, "I'm very happy, and today I talked to my country on the mobile phone and told them that Claudia was swimming a world record. And now in my country, there is a very big party." Born in Nicaraguaof German parents, Poll moved to Costa Rica when she was 6 years old. She started swimming lessons with the local team coached by Rivas, and then just stayed on. "I've always been with Francisco, ' ' she says. " 1 1 was j ust fun in the begi n n in g. It wasn't until 1987 that I started to take swimming seriously." Karin Helmstaedt When Costa Rica's first ever Olympic gold medallist stepped off the plane at the San Jose airport last August, one and a half million fans were there to welcome her. A veritable celebrity in her country, Claudia Poll has also become a household name in aquatic circles, and after her outstanding performances in Goteborg, she's probably still signing autographs. To say that the double world champion success- fully defended her titles in the 200 and 400 freestyle races is to woefully understate her achievements. To say that she pulver- ized two world records (1:54.17; 4:00.03) in the process still falls short of the extraor- dinary spectacle of her two swims in Swe- den. We knew she had a reputation for aim- ing high, and this year did see her off to a great start with the FINA Swimming World Cup. Display- ing her remarkable versatility, she com- peted in two catego- ries, winning the Dis- tance Freestyle and placing second in the Sprint Freestyle. Her times in the 200 (1:57.02) and 400 (4:05.31) freestyle had her number one in the world before Goteborg, and as promised she made Focus on PerT°rmance paid off with two world records the meet the focus of her short course season. After weeks of training sub-two minute 200s she knew that the results would be spectacular. She spoke fondly of coach Francisco Rivas after the 200.

It's been many months of training and I owe it all to him and his planning." times on the clock in the Scandinavium, and her unbridled joy had a contagious latin charm, no doubt typical of the little country that she has fervently embraced as her own. Poll's seriousness in training is no joke, however, as the third year Business Administration student rises at 3 a.m. to train in 1 5°C water. "The weather is warm in Costa Rica but our pool is cold and it's extremely windy," she explains. "But Francisco tells us the cold is in your mind. Sometimes we're all blue when we swim.. .we swim about 10 to 1 1 km a day because it's too cold for more. We also have a rainy season so I'm used to the wind and rain!" Despite training in a small country, out of the international eye, Poll admits she loves the limelight of world-class competition. "1 like everything (about competing)," she says. "The minutes before when you're a little bit nervous and trying to control every- thing, and then the start, and everything goes away... I love that sensation." Marco Chiesa At 24, Poll's imposing stature (1.91 m tall) is all the more noticeable for her professional edge when she arrives on the pool deck. "I'm very disciplined and I believe it's the only way to go. I come here to compete, and I'm very meticulous. I have fun with what I do but I do it with discipline,1' she says. The cool exterior vanished, however, the moment she glimpsed her Poll's enthusiasm for her sport is evident when she talks about possibly changing strokes in the near future, "to have new goals. It's going to be pretty hard to break a 1:54.17!" A frequent and formidable racer, her next appearance in competition will be in Canet at the end of May. Look out everyone, because Poll is on a roll.

The evening siarteil off with tlie women's 100 butterfly, where current world record-holder Misty Hyman (USA) met her challengers. Hyman, with her underwater kicking technique, had the lead for two and a half lengths, splitting 26.55 at the 50. But the field closed in on the hist length: Jenny Thompson (I SA) moved into the lead by half a length anil lluijueCai (CHN) also touched ahead of Hyman, who had lo settle for third. The existing world record of 58.29 was bettered by the first four finishers. And it is worth mentioning that all eight finalists were well under the minute mark. The new record time by Thompson was 57.79, with Cai in 57.92, Hyman at 57.95 and Limin Liu, the champion from 1995, in 58.26. Fifth-place Martina Moravcova (SVK) set a new European record of 58.58. Thompson said afterward, "I was really excited a n d Dream comes true for Claudia with second world record Marco Chiesa pumped up by the crowd, even though they were cheering (for Swe- den's Johanna Sjoberg). I just tried to use their energy and make it work for me." Former record- holder Misty Hyman took a lot more fly strokes on the surface than usual and as a re- sult was beaten by the better surface fly- ers. Asmall consola- tion for Misty — her 50 split Poll hugs coach Francisco Rivas Marco Chiesa was a new world record. Her time of 26.55 bettered the existing time of 26.56 of Angela Kennedy (AUS) from 1995. "Great time," Hyman said, "but I'm not satis- fied. I was going for the gold and wanted to do better." The men's 200 fly was a very tight race, and once again Denis Pankratov was not in it. For most of the eight lengths James Hickman (GBR), Denis Silantiev (UKR), and Scott Goodman (AUS) went stroke for stroke. Hickman, who had abrilliant split in Britain's medley relay, had the strongest finish and touched ahead. The winning time was 1:55.55, with Silantiev second in 1:55.76 and Goodman third with 1:55.94. "I felt really confident," Hickman said. "I thought I was going to have to be faster than this. But I think everyone was being cautious about the race, but they came back well in the second half. I thought, if I can just get this last turn and make it one of my great ones, I can win this. And I did!" Once again Canadians held their own in this event, with Shamek Pietucha qualifying second in the morning (1:56.04) and Eddie Parenti seventh (1:57.73). The final shakedown saw Pietucha finish fourth (1:56.55) and Parenti sixth (1:57.01). After her triumph in the 200 freestyle the night before, Claudia Poll's 400 freestyle very nearly defied description. It was the perfect race, beautifully split: after the initial length's 28.44, she held 30s for the next seven 50s. A textbook case of even pacing. The world best time of 4:02.05 that stood for 10 years (held by Astrid Strauss of East Germany) was finally erased with Poll's world record of 4:00.02. It was a perfonn- ance that brought the house down. Poll became a double world record-holder on consecutive nights. "I knew I could go under 4:05 because I went several of them during the World Cup," Poll said.

The Swedes took the bronze in 3:38.07. planned to get the record but didn't think four min- utes was possible. I almost did 3:59! If I had known how close I was...!" The silver went to Natasha Bowron (AUS), whose remarkable 4:05.76 was lost in the excitement, and Kerstin Kielgass (GER) took the bronze in 4:07.13. Kielgass was not happy. "I have problems with a cold, and a tough time with the dry air in the arena. It is hard to race with those conditions." The men's 100 freestyle was never in doubt as Francisco Sanchez (VEN) took off with a quick turn- over, taking the lead from the start and holding on to the finish. The longer-strokingGustavoBorges (BRA) closed toward the finish but couldn't raise his stroke rate sufficiently. Sanchez's winning time was 47.86. Borges posted 48.16 and Michael Klim (AUS) was third with 48.21. The women's 100 breaststroke was the second gold for Kristy Ellem (AUS), already winner of the 200. It was a very close race with Ellem surging to first place on the last strokes. Alicja Peczak (POL) took the silver in 1:08.33, and Svetlana Bondarenko (UKR) the bronze in 1:08.39- Canadian rookies Danica Wizniuk and Tara Sloan finished sixth (1:08.88) and eighth (1:09.20) respectively.

Kami Ik ImM.u dl Fr.UKi.sco Sanchez came into liis own at tlie 1995 Short Course Worlds in Rio de Janeiro. At 19, lie stole the sotrwsty le ( 2 1 .80) victory from Brazilian favour- ites Fernando Scherer ;uul Gustavo Borges, and added a bronze medal in the 100 freestyle (48.46). That made him 'pretty- much of a star" in his native Venezuela, and now people recognize him wherever he goes. This time around, die 20-year-old sprinter came to Gbleborg as one of the big guys with a title to defend. And while his just over 6-foot stature is less noticeable on deck than that of tall man Borges or the flamboyant Scherer, when he flew from the block in the heats of the men's 100 freestyle, it was clear he had aery intention of meeting the challenge. Sanchez led his heat by almost a body length and posted the fastest time of 47.85. That night at finals, he told himself he needed a repeat performance. Getting the jump on all of his competitors, there was never a doubt: victory was his in 47.86 seconds. After the race Sanchez was quietly jubilant, say- ing, "1 couldn't believe what I did this morning, that I could go that fast. When I realized I could go that fast, I just went for the gold, and got it. Thank God!" "It feels pretty terrific to beat Olympic medallist Gustavo Borges," he added. FINA President Mustapha Larfaoui with Sanchez Sanchez explained his remarkable starts.'Tve been working on my starts since about 1995 and it's Savouring the moment really paying off. I've also worked on my turns. Two weeks ago I had NCAAs and it didn't go so well (he was fourth in the SO freestyle), so I didn't know what to expect here. But it's going great." As for the 50 freestyle on the last night, he grinned wickedly, "I think I'm ready!" 1 le certainly was; with his fast twitch fibres tuned, Sanchez came back on Britain's Mark Foster to take the 50 in 21.80, tying his own champi- onship record and securing his second gold. "I did it again," he said, delighted "I had a bad finish this morning so I knew I could go faster." When asked after the 100 about the absence of top competitors like Alexan- der Popov, Sanchez rationalized, "There are always going to be some people who say that it matters, that the best aren't here, but I don't believe that. Borges is here. Besides (Popov), Borges and Gary Hall, who else is there? That was pretty close to an Olympic final." After two years in the United States, Sanchez has picked up the classic Ameri- can speak. "I wanted to go to the U.S. since I was 15 years old," he explains. When his friend Felipe Delgado of Ecua- dor told him about Arizona State Uni- versity, he managed to get asponsorship from a Venezuelan Sport Instititute to take English classes and start trainining in Tempe (Arizona). "We don't have many meets in Venezuela, so I went to the U.S. to study and to be able to race often." Under the tutelage of coach Ernie Maglischo, Sanchez trains short course yards, logging up to 70,000 to 80,000 yards a week. "The first year was pretty hard. I missed my family a lot," he says. Now in second year Industrial Management, Sanchez has re- laxed and adapted to the "crazy" routine of American college life. "I never went out in the beginning, " he laughs, "but now I go out I on Friday nights, and I like to party." "I think people (in Venezuela) expected || a lot from me here, but more from the 50!" I With two world titles to his credit, the next I homecoming is bound to be a fiesta. Sanchez gets back to his hometown of Valencia about twice a year and will head 1 back this month (May) to see his parents, his HP brother Jose, 19, and little sister Mariana. / "She just turned 15 in March, so my first gold medal is for her," he smiles proudly.

Kristy's way to becoming world champion has not been a solo effort. Her parents Brian and Becky take turns to get their talented daughter up at 4:45 a.m. and to the pool by 5:15 ever}' morning. After two hours of training she has breakfast at the pool. Then it's school until 3:10 p.m. But here again the school — Morton Bay Col- lege— has its role. Kristy is allowed to miss certain lessons to do some of her homework. After school it's back to the pool before going home, having dinner, finishing off any homework, and going to bed to recover for another early rise. Kristy does not miss spending time with her friends, for her strict routine is often broken on the weekend, when she loves to go shopping with friends or go to a cafe, drink hot chocolate, and talk, just like any other 15 year old. Travel is another of her interests, particu- larly travel to the USA, but in April she was happy to go to GSteborg, Sweden, where she hoped to pick up a medal in the 200 breaststroke. Al- though she headed the world rankings, she only considered she "had a chance in the 200 to make the final and swim well." A telegram from her training partner, Sam Riley, said "Swim good. Have fun. Go well. Good luck." An inspiration for anyone. Nerves hit her in the heats of this, her first international swim. But in the final she admitted that she "felt much more relaxed." Although she had the lead throughout the race she thought "there was someone up with me at 150. It was not until i turned and saw the scoreboard," that she realized she had won. Her immediate reaction was "this was my personal best (2:22.68) and I think everything went well. In fact this is the third best time for the distance ever. I felt confident be cause I had a good race this morn ing. I started off strong and kept the whole way." That night sleep did not come easy. The medal was safely tucked in her bag with her swim things, but on her mind was the race the next day — the 100 breaststroke. "It did cross my mind that I could get a medal but I didn't expect to win." But win she did, by storming through in the closing metres to snatch victory from the grasp of the more experienced duo of Alicj a Peczak, POL, and Svetlana Bondarenko, UKR. Kristy's time of 1 :08.27 was just 6/100 of a second ahead of second place. "Unbelievable," was her re- action, adding "It was a bit of a slow time, so I'm a bit disappointed, but I can't believe that I won." As with all Australians, Sydney 2000 is uppermost in her mind. She will finish school in 1999 and take a year off, working for what she hopes will be Olympic Double golds for Kristy at first championships Marco Chiesa glory. Afterwards, she's not quite sure — maybe uni- versity or a job as a sports commentator. But if Olympic gold comes her way, the world could be her o\ster. Third fastest all-time 200 breaststroke time SWIMNEWS / MAY 1997 1 7 DAY 4, APRIL 20 AUSTRALIA TOP COUNTRY WITH MOST GOLDS, AND MOST TOTAL MEDALS K.irin Uehnstacdl On the final night, the men's ^0 freestyle opened the show. M.irk Foster (GBR), the lop qualifier in the heats (21.95), had the edge on the start and got to the 2S m mark first, but on the second length, a confident Francisco Sanchez (YEN) powered to the finish with a 23/100 of a second margin of victory, about an arm's length. It was a large distance considering the high quality of die finalists. Sanchez defended his 1995 title by tying his own championship record of 21.80. Foster's time was 22.03, and Ricardo Busquets (PUR) was third with 22.17. "I did it again." said a delighted Sanchez. "I had a bad finish diis morning so I knew I could go faster." Second-place finisher Foster said, "I am a bit disap- pointed as I tried very hard. I started a new training programme three months ago. It's going to take some lime to adjust to it." Puerto Rico's pride Busquets said, "I thought I had a great performance. I'nfortunatly not enough." The women's 200 individual medley gave the blue and yellow painted fans a lot to cheer about. After a disappointing finish in the 100 butterfly, Louise Karlsson (SWE) had something to prove. She led from start to finish, holding off a powerful surge at the finish by Martina Moravcova (SYK). who gained almost a body length on the freestyle leg to miss the gold by 2/100 of a second. Karlsson's time was 2:1 1.19, a new national record. Moravcova was second with 2:1 1.21. England'sSue Rolph was third with 2:12.39- MEDAL TOTALS Rank Country GOLD SILVER BRONZE TOTAL 1 AUS 9 2 8 19 2 CHN 6 5 2 13 3 SWE 3 3 1 7 4 GER 2 6 5 13 5 USA 2 5 6 13 6 CRC 2 - - 2 CUB 2 - - 2 VE1M 2 - 2 9 GBR 1 e 0 10 BRA 1 2 11 BLR 1 1 DEN 1 1 13 RUS 4 POL 2 SVK 2 UKR 2 17 JPN NZL ROM 20 CAN NED PUR TOTAL 32 32 33* 97 * Tie for 3rd in men's 4 30I.M. "I am happy and extremely tired," Karlsson said. "I got off to a very good start and everything worked out well." Silver medallist Moravcova said, "I thought I was capable of winning. I am happy with my second place." Rolph, who posted the season's fastest time, didn't hide her disappointment. "What can I say? I am pretty upset. It hurt a lot this morning. And tonight it didn't hurt enough. I can't really say anything polite." Her time of 2: 12.39 was off the 2: 10.60 she did in December. In the men's 200 individual medley, the race went to defending champion Matthew Dunn (AUS), whose supe- rior second half was just too much. Dunn is such a good freestyler that he's a member of Australia's 4x200 world record freestyle relay team. He was comfortably second at the 100 and 150 as Ron Karnaugh (USA) had the lead for the first 100, and Christian Keller (GER) a slight lead at the 150. Dunn then moved ahead in the freestyle, touch- ing almost a second ahead of Keller. The top three times: Dunn 1:57.46, Keller 1:58.35, and Karnaugh 1:59-12. "It has been fantastic in Goteborg!" Dunn said. "I started the meet great and finished it great. I started to get a cold last night and am just wrapped. I had nothing all day, so this is just such a relief. It would have been easier yesterday." Silver medallist Kellerwon this event in 1993 " Itwas a hard race. I tried to to get into the lead. Eventually I paid the price and my legs got too heavy." Karnaugh, the veteran in the field at age 30, said, "I am happy to get a medal for the USA. I was hoping for around a 1:58." Misty Hyman (USA) led the women's 200 backstroke for seven lengths with Yan Chen (CHN) closing the gap after the 150 and surging to the lead in the final strokes. "I am extremely tired," Chen said. "I was chasing after Hyman on the last 50. What a tough race." After missing another chance at a gold, Hyman was gracious, "I am really happy with my time." She added, "The atmosphere here is amazing! The crowds, the way they have set it up, it is so much fun. We don't have meets like this in the States. The crowd is just so responsive — we've had a great time." In the men's 100 backstroke, Brian Retterer (USA) had the lead for 90 metres but Neisser Bent (CUB) had such a strong finish that he stole the lead to take his second gold. (He won the 200 backstroke earlier). The winning time was 52.77; Retterer posted 53-06, and a slightly off Adrian Radley (AUS) took third in 53-36. "Itwas a great race," Retterersaid. "I had to be ahead and was until the last 10 metres. Neisser was too strong. I am satisfied, even though it was not good enough to win." In the women's 4x100 medley relay, China led throughout and had top efforts from all four swimmers. The Americans moved to second after Misty Hyman's fly leg (57.13) but couldn't catch the winners. China'ssplits:DonghuaLu,59-58;XueHan, 1:08.50; Huijue Cai, 57.23; and Jingyi Le, 52.52. Le expressed it best. "It was not easy, the competition was tough. The crowd was great and the cheering was so 8 loud. Wow!" CO 5 The men's 4x100 free relay was the first gold for | Germany in a relay. They chased Australia for the first half 5 and then successfully held off a charged Swedish team. The crowd went wild when anchor Lars Frolander almost SWIMNEWS/MAY 1997 Matthew Dunn, AUS, won 200-400 I.M., and anchored 4x200 free Marco Chiesa caught up. The winningtimes: Germany 3: 14.08, Sweden 3: 14.22, and Australia 3: 14.83. Frolander electrified the crowd with his 47.22 anchor for Sweden. He summed it up, "Close again!" For the Germans it was a moment of triumph. Alex- ander Luderitz, who swam the third length, said, "It was close. We are all very happy." In his last swim for Sweden, veteran Anders Holmertz said, "We were going for the gold medal. I was not happy with my own split (48.84) but Frolander did a great last leg." Australian distance stars Kieren Perkins and Dan Kowalski can rest assured that, if and when they retire, there is home-grown talent worthy of taking their place. 1 6 year old Grant Hackett (AUS) swam a tough race with Germany'sjorg Hoffmann to take the honours in the 1 500 freestyle . "It hurt like hell," he said. "I wanted to go out hard and then try to hold Hoffmann off, but he came back on me. I thought he might die towarc i'i i 1 1 vr ii h he did. So I just went for it. "It is absolutely fantastic to beat him. I knew he would be in top form from his performances during the World Cup. "In Perth, nextjanuary, the home crowd will be such a bonus. You can see here how the Swedes are motivating their swimmers. I am just going to work my butt off until then." Hoffmann was not happy. "I am not satisfied. Second is better than fifth (400 free). But I will be motivated to work harder for the European and World Champion- ships." Surprisingly, the bronze went to someone sitting in the stands. Graeme Smith swam in the morning heats and went fast enough to beat out six of the top seeds. The top times: Hackett (AUS) 14:39.54; Hoffmann (GER) 14:40.67; and Smith (GBR) 14:46.85. Swedish secret: fantastic fan support POOLSIDE POSITIVE ENERGY HELPS SWEDES Karin Helmstaedt During the hype of the women's 4x100 freestyle relay, anyone looking toward the swimmers' stands in the Scandinavium might have noticed some- thing curious. One of the Swedish coaches, Glen Christiansen, stood stock still, his eyes fixed on the Swedish relayers in lane 3. His hands and fingers were spread and facing outward, as if preparing a chest pass with a large ball. Amid the noise and the eventual success of the relay- team (who garnered a bronze medal), Christiansen did not move from this posture. With- out even asking, it was clear that he was sending energy to the swimmers. When questioned afterward, he smiled, "It's something I've been doing more and more, just using my own positive energy to help them," he said. "I don't burden the swimmers with it. They don't even know I'm doing it, but I've done it here several times and it seems to be helping!" Christiansen's wife of ten years, Anne, is a trained kinesiologist and massage therapist. She explained, "We've both been involved in a lot of healing work, and Glen is just now realizing the potential of his energy. What he's doing is basically allowing the swimmers to succeed, clearing the way to their goal," She added, "Glen has been through a lot of trauma himself, both personal and profes- sional, with swimming. He's had a lot of disap- pointments and this is one of the ways he has found todealwith hisown pain while helpingothers at the same time." The Goteborg native, who has been living and coaching in Hamburg, was responsible for the women freestylers. He was also instrumental as a very positive force on the successful Swedish team. He said, "I'm a very positive person, and 1 like to give that to my swimmers. I don't want people to think it's witchcraft or anything crazy," he waves a hand in front of his forehead, "so we do it quietly." He grinned, "You spot- ted me, but you didn't see her." He pointed to Anne. The two looked decidedly serene. "She was doing it too."

On the final night of competition, Karlsson had her moment, exploding off the start of the 200 IM and never letting up. Two minutes, 11.19 seconds later, she had bettered her own national record to take the gold medal. Just like that. And so what if it was short course? The overall quality of the championships in Goteborg have per- haps helped to dispel the idea of the superiority of the k.irin Hi lniM.u dl Currenllv in her ninth year on the Swedish national te.un. Lnnse karlsson has an impressive competitive history: one world, one European, and a string of Svwdish records are hers, with her spot of originality being that she holds a world record in a non-Olympic discipline, the 100 individual medley. A native of I'ddevalla, she has remained unbeat- able in die IM since 1992, and after her bronze medal in the 200 M at die Short Course World Champion- shins in Riodejaneiroin 1995, was considered highly proficient in die short course pool. "I'm a good starter and I have good turns," she says, "but lately my long course swimming is getting better too." Karlsson suffered a setback last fall when she contracted a lung infection and was forced to stop swimming for a month and a half. She resumed her training in early December and accompanied the national team to South Africa for a training camp. She made an appearance at the World Cup in Malmo, where she surprised herself by equalling her own world best time of 1:01.03 in the 100 m individual medley (set in 1992 at the World Cup in Espoo) . "That helped to push me in die right direction again," she says. Her performances in Malmo earned her a preselection to the Swedish team to compete in Goteborg. In prepara tion for Goteborg, Karlsson spent two weeks train- ing with coach Mike Blondal at the National Sport Centre in Calgary in March. Having trained for two years in 1992- 1994 with former Centre coach Deryk Snelling, Karlsson likes the environment there and finds it a good change. "It was really hard training and 1 did some good preparation there. I think I'm back on track again," she said before the cham- pionships. Moment of triumph after winning 200 I.M. Marco Chiesa Karlsson on the way to new Swedish record for 200 I.M. Marco Chiesa 50 metre course — the two are simply different. It is worth noting that in addition to her training. Karlsson handles a full-time job as an insurance salesperson. In connection with her work, she is also involved in anti-drug and anti-violence projects, giv- ing occasional talks to schools and companies. Bal- ancing work and a swimming career on her own is not easy, and sometimes she has to sacrifice one to catch up on the other. "I work 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. every day, so I can only train in the evenings," she says. "It's difficult, but they do let me take time off for compe- titions. Sometimes I have to skip a couple of workouts if I'm too tired or work piles up." As for her future in the sport, experience has taught Karlsson to take things one year at a time. She preferred to be cautious about Sevilla before knowing the outcome of Goteborg, but no doubt the new Swedish record will see her head to the Spanish south. On the professional side, apart from expressing an interest in teaching, she adopts the same philosophy: "I'm only 23, so I think I've got lots of time to decide." 2i SWIMNEWS / MAY 1997 ARIZOIA SPORTS RAICH CA Great Video Learning Sessions "The ASR Competitive Swimming and Stroke Specialty Swim Camps bring together great swimmers for some outstanding workouts, learning experiences and lots of fun!

Colwin Alter ilk- llHvS Olympic Games, the FINA Congress ;icepted by 4l votes to 31 a proposal by the Amateur Swimming I'nion of Australia that "butterfly-breast- stroke and orthodox breaststroke be considered sepa- rate emits, us they represent two distinct styles of swimming, and should not be swum in the same competition." The Congress asked the FINA Bureau to work out thedetails. There are two accounts of what followed alter this. One said that "At an informal party, sewn of the ten members decided to veto the Congress ruling." (O'Connor, 1949) This action brought an immediate protest from Mr Harold Fern. Britain's Bureau representative and a former President of FINA (1946 -1948). Mr Fern, who had presided at the Congress Meeting, felt strongly "about keeping faith with the FINA nations, and said that, unless the Bureau change their decision in the next meeting in Italy in September it means the butterfly stroke will be used at Helsinki against the wishes of the majority." Fern pointed out that the European League had already decided to make but- terfly and breaststroke two different events for the forthcoming European Games in three years time. Fern added that this action was "unconstitutional" and a postal vote was taken. By six votes to three (theHungarian representa- tive did not reply) it was decided to retain the butterfly as part of the breaststroke. Mr Fern, believ- ing that a grave injustice had been done by this ruling, with the support of the (English) ASA, cir- culated the following resolution: "The ASA Committee submits that the FINA Bureau's ruling on the matter of the breaststroke over- rides the decision of Congress in a manner which is quite unwar- rantable. The Committee accord- ingly records a strong protest against the action of the Bureau." (O'Connor, ibid.) Up to this date the butterfly-breast- stroke controversy had been the centre of many bitter arguments, but this one even threatened to cause a split in FINA. Although the Congress had voted to separate the butterfly-breaststroke and orthodox breaststroke, because the IOC would not allow additional events in the Olympic Games, the real effect of the vote would have been to "ban" the butterfly-breaststroke. President Edstrom of the IOC, on Monday night, August 9, 1 948, at which he was told that the IOC "was adverse to increasing the Olympic program, as also the national Olympic Committees considered it a hardship to increase the Olympic teams for financial reasons." The Hon. Secretary, on the basis of these facts and other important implications, felt compelled to point out this situation to all the Bureau members, which he did in a circular letter of August 1 1 , 1948, request- ing consideration of the earlier decision taken, and an early reply of all members so that a final ruling Harold E. Fern supported the move to a fourth stroke in 1948. which the FINA Congress also ratified, only to have the FINA Bureau overrule it b IOC "Adverse" to New Events 1 Mr Max Ritter, American Hon. Sec. of I FINA, who was the main force behind | the veto, pointed out that thousands of | swimmers had taken up the butterfly | and if it was banned it would cause an | uproar in the United States. Mr Ritter i said, "The members of Congress were o too tired to understand what they were O a. votingforwhen they 'banned' the but- terfly." Max Ritter had a meeting with Mr Max Ritter, pointed out that thousands of swimmers had taken up the butterfly and if it was banned it would cause an uproar in the United States. could be drawn up and communicated to the affili- ated nations. By September 22, 1948, the answers from the Bureau members were received, one member failing to send his reply. Six Bureau members voted to draw up rules for breaststroke, grouping under (a) Ortho- dox breaststroke and (b) butterfly-breaststroke, thereby retaining these two strokes as breaststrokes. Three Bureau members were of the opinion that butterfly stroke should be listed as an entirely new stroke and that only the orthodox stroke should apply to breaststroke. Based on this decision of the FINA Bureau, there followed yet another detailed list of rules for the two strokes respectively, which were to be swum in the same event! At this point, the rule- makers of FINA had reached a new high in obfusca- tion. The FINA Bulletin of January 1949 mentioned how the Bureau members had discussed in detail the Congress' mandate to the Bureau to draw up rules for the orthodox breaststroke and the butterfly strokes. "It was not clear to some members if the intent of Congress was to separate these two strokes under the names of breaststroke or to create an entirely new stroke called butterfly. In this meeting the majority of the members seemed to favour the latter course and 25 SWIMNEWS / MAY 1997 rules weredrawn up accord- ingly. On later reflection it was felt that it was possibly not the intention of Con- gress to create an entirely new stroke with butterfly, but still to consider butter- fly as a breaststroke, al- though separated from the orthodox stroke." This ap- parent confusion could wel 1 have been the result of lan- guage difficulties, and the problem of unambiguous translation among the rep- resentatives of so many na- tions. IOC Again Refuses New Events At a meeting with the IOC in Copenhagen, May 12 and 13, 1950, at which the final 1952 Helsinki Olympic Pro- gram was submitted for ap- proval to the IOC by the Finnish Organising Com- mittee, the FINA Bureau re- quested an additional event for butterfly. However, the IOC "refused to add new competitions to the Olym- pic Progamme." As a result, FINA asked the IOC to consult with In- ternational Sports Federa- tions "before future final Ol- ympic Programmes are ap- proved by the International Olympic Committees." FINA said that no pro- gramme can be permanent and that the natural development of a sport must be taken into considera- tion. The FINA Bureau said that it "considered this to be a very vital question, but recognizing the great extension of thepresent Olympic Programme, pledges itself to cooperate with the the International Olympic Committee in any curtailment of the programme that might prove necessary in the future." In April 1952, there was a proposal by Hungary saying that "breaststroke should be separated from butterfly stroke as these are two different styles which should not be swum in the same competition." This simple statement hit the nail on the head. At the same meeting there was a proposal by Iceland along the same lines, saying that "a definite distinction should be made between breaststroke and butterfly stroke, Joe Verdeur, USA, won the 200 breaststroke at the 1948 Olympics swim ming butterfly with the breaststroke kick and that the two styles should be kept entirely separate in international contests." At the same meeting there were similar proposals by Japan and Spain while Sweden, for some imponderable reason, went back to square one, by suggesting that "Orthodox breast- stroke and butterfly shall be considered the same stroke and that a swimmer should be allowed to change from one style to another during the race." In December 1952, a letter from the President of the IOC was read to the FINA meeting regarding the necessary reduction in the number of participants at the Olympic Games. Japan and Iceland proposed that the number of events be increased to include breast- stroke and butterfly for men andwomen. The vote was carried by 52 to 38. The meeting also agreed, by 39 votes to 33 < it looks as if 18 people didn't vote on this!) that, if the IOC would not allow this increase, then the event should be breast- stroke. After 21 Years Butterfly Becomes a Separate Event FINAannounced in Decem- ber 1954 that the IOC had agreed to the inclusion of butterfly events in the 1956 Olympic program, with the proviso that a maximum of three competitors for men and three for women from each nation "be entered for the combined breaststroke and butterfly events." It should be noted that prior to this announcement the IOC had been requested by the Hon. Sec. of FINA to consider the introduction of two butterfly events into the Olympic program, but that President Brundage had pointed out that the von Frenckell Committee, which had considered the reduction of the Olympic program, had strongly rec- ommended that no new events should be accepted. In June 1956, entries for the breaststroke and butterfly events at the Ol- ympics were limited by the IOC to only three competi- tors to be entered in breast- stroke and butterfly to- gether. Furthermore, the IOC said that these three competitors would be enti- tled to compete in both styles. This statement showed that, after so many years, the IOC still had a complete lack of understanding that breaststroke and butterfly were essentially different strokes that should have been separated long ago. The truth is that the IOC had been too concerned with its own priorities to consider the developmental needs of one particular sport. ■]nd of part two.

"What they are giving to us with one hand, they are planning to take away with the other," said Australian SwimmingexecutivedirectorVenaMurray, whose organization receives AUS$ 4 million annu- ally in Federal grants. The changes were aimed at charitable trusts, preventing them from claimingexemptionson money sent overseas. Sporting bodies insist they will also be hit by the Government's crackdown. Most organizations at present enjoy a tax exemp- tion because they are established for the encourage- ment of a game or sport, but under the proposed changes, only sports operating solely in Australia will be able to claim the exemption. Sports that travelled overseas to compete would be subject to income tax on operations. Exact wording of the legislation has not been finalized. Four more positives brings the Chinese total to 23. Four swimmers tested positive in January 1996. They were not reported to FTNA until February of 1997. .According the FINA Director Cornel Marculescu, "Nations are now obliged to report positive tests. China has done that," adding "they are fighting against drugs and taking action themselves. Six months to a year is a normal reporting period." One male Qiang Lu, was found to have testoster- one/epitestorene ratio above the allowed limit, and three female swimmers Ran Yu, Shi Pu, and Jialin Chen, were all found to be using anabolic steroids.

Top Canadian swimmers such as Gary MacDonald and Bruce Robertson swam at SFU. Editor: I read with great interest Dave Johnson's comments in the February issue regarding the diffi- culties faced in trying to make Canadian senior swimming more competitive at the international level. I have asimple suggestion that I believe would go a long way towards making Canada a "mini" power- house in Sydney. Send your best athletes — particularly your men — south to college in the United States. Even with scholarships and practice limitations, the U.S. collegiate program is still the most competi- tive on earth. Nowhere else can a top swimmer be tested week in and week out in a dual meet and/or invitational setting. And come conference time with the NCAA qualification standards as difficult as they are, the bloodletting is simply awesome. Only the fittest survive and make it to the top, but those that do gain a competitive advantage available training (and racing) in the U.S. The National Cen- tre in Calgary is nice, but I will always believe nothing takes the place of top- flight competition, and Canadian clubs and the uni- versity system have repeatedly shown that with rare exceptions (Victor Davis, Alex Baumann, and Curtis Myden come immediately to mind), such competi- tion is not available.

DIFFUSION AQUASPORT 8866 Pie IX Blvd. Montreal, QC, H1Z3V1 FAX (514) 374-5411 SWIMNEWS / MAY 1997 STARWATCH VAN ALMSICK STRUGGLES SMITH NOT SURE WHAT'S NEXT Karin Helmstaedt The International Meeting in Sarcelles, France, saw its profile go up a few notches when two of swim- ming's most talked about stars showed up for some early long course competition. The presence of Germany's Franziska van Almsick — tall, slim, and almost elegantly de- tached— and Ireland's Michelle Smith — short, de- termined, and handsomely defined — added a com- pelling contrast to an otherwise long and uneventful weekend. The two came head to head in the 100 freestyle, with Smith dominating in 57.53, a new Irish record. Van Almsick's 57.78 was remarkable only for how difficult it was, as the 1994 world champion admitted afterward. "My times here were terrible," she said. "I've never needed so much power to do such bad times. But I can't swim any other way at the moment." Her winning time of 2:02.52 in the 200 did even less for her confidence, but van Almsick spoke with deep humility when she added, "I have to get used to swimming at this kind of meet. Before I only com- peted when I was really fit, but now I'm coming off a long break (4 months after the Olympics) and I need time to get back into it. It's not easy. I'm actually really surprised at how supportive the French people are. Their response here has been so positive." Indeed, both van Almsick and Smith were heav- ily solicited for autographs and interviews, and while they graciously acquiesced, neither woman was very keen to discuss her plans for the summer season. Smith, who added victories in the 800 freestyle (8:52.10) and the 200 IM (2:20.69), said that despite having already qualified for Sevilla, she was still unsure as to whether she would compete. "I'm happy with what I've done here," she said, "I didn't expect fast times, and I certainly didn't expect best times.. .it will depend on how my training is going." She did disclose that she would compete in Bel- gium and Canet, and "go somewhere" for some long course training, either in the U.S. or Europe. As for van Almsick, she heads to Vittel for a two- week training camp with her coach Gerd Esser, in preparation for the German trials in early July that will determine whether she wins a berth to Sevilla. "I'll be up against Dagmar Hase, Kerstin Kielgass... those are pretty big names!" she smiles, implying that her biggest challenge for the moment is to live up to her image, and the competition at home. But despite the weight of expectation on her, the 19 year old maintains the desire is still there. Apart from some private school English and Italian courses, she is focussed on swimming. "My main goal is the W orld Championships in Perth... I still have the feel- ing that I can swim faster." Her reaction to Costa Rican Claudia Poll's world record performances in Goteborg sounded less con- vincing: "Those are crazy times, and I don't know if I can swim that fast. Both races were really impres- sive." Of the change from her longtime coach Dieter Lindemann, she said, "My train- ing is completely different now, and I think I needed that. I spent 6 to 8 years doing the same kind of training, and it's good to change."

T9E3M1 SWIMNEWS / MAY 1997 37 GBR EUROPEAN TRIALS PARRY UPSETS HICKMAN BRITISH 1 00 FREE RECORD FOR SHACKELL WITH 50.04 Anita Lonsbrough SHEFFIELD — Paul Palmer, the Olympic silver med- .i v met again had to do it tlie hard way to gain selection for the European Championships, where he has won silver on the hist two occasions. The 11 year old had the same hurdles to over- come at the Olympic Trials the previous year. He had to swim the heats of the 200 free- >t\ le .md while his rivals went away to rest for the final, he was swim- ming the heats of the 1 500 free- style. The 1500 freestyle final was the following day, with the final o the 200 freestyle later the same day On the third day of competi uon was me^OOfreestyle, with noi ing on the final day of the trials. With such a difficult program for the distance swimmers, one would have hoped those who deliberated on the scheduling of the events would have arranged a more suit- able program. Not particularly aiming to swim the individual 200 freestyle at the Europeans, but wanting aplace on the relay, Paul is now concen- trating more on the 400 and the 1500 freestyle. Qualify ing for the shorter dis- tance was no problem. Qualifyinf for the 1 500 proved even easier — it was more like a swim-down. Winning the 200 freestyle final was much easier than Paul could have hoped. Fourth at the half way stage, he moved steadily into second by the final turn, and snatched victory from the grasp of James Salter at the finish. His time of 1 :49.85 made hi m the only sub- 1:50 finisher. In second and third were Salter and Andrew Clayton. Fourth place went to Gavin Mead- ows, a member of the 4x200 free relay at the last European Championships. Back in seventh spot was Mark Stevens, a mem- ber of the relay that finished fifth at the Atlanta Olympic Games. Problems with trying to study for exams and train at the same time had clearly affected his fitness. The following day was the 1500 freestyle, final with Graeme Smith, the Olympic bronze medallist, out for victory. Having withdrawn from the 200 free- style not wanting to make any mistakes or underesti- mating his opposition, Smith made it clear from the start that he would not be satisfied with any other spot but first. All eyes watched the battle between Paul and Ian W ilson. Twelve months earlier, Paul had denied Ian the early pace with Graeme Smith slowly clawing his way through the field to challenge Paul in the closing sprint, failing by just 0.03 second to take victory. Paul 's time of 3:51.51 was some three seconds slower than his Olympic silver medal performance. For the past three years, James Hickman has ruled the butterfly events. But not anymore, for he has a serious contender in Stephen Parry from Liverpool. James was concentrating on the World Short Course Championships the week after Trials, and put a brave face on his double defeat by Stephen, who is currently training and studying at Florida State Uni- versity. After his win in the 100 butterfly, where his time of 54.03 was 0.43 ahead of Hickman, Stephen said, "It was nice for once not to see his feet." •* Four golds for Susan Rolph a place on the Olympic team. Would he beat him again? Not wanting to waste too much energy, Paul swam for second spot, only to find at the end of his 30 lengths he had missed selection for the event by 0.22 seconds with a time of 15:28.79- He admitted after- wards "that's just what I didn't want to happen." When asked why he didn't sprint the last 50 as he clearly had a lap in hand he replied, "I didn't want to stiffen up for tomorrow's 400 freestyle." Paul will now have to swim another 1500 freestyle at Summer Nationals in July to qualify. He believes he can win a medal in this event but the unsuitable Trials program made it difficult for him and the rest of the middle and distance freestylers. The 400 freestyle the following day saw Paul set Marco Chiesa A good heat swim had Stephen dip under the two minute barrier for the first time in the 200 butterfly. He improved still further in the final with 1:59-19. He was full of praise for Hickman, who was not fully tapered while he was at the end of his. Stephen Parry who was dropped last year from the England 98 squad because he was in the USA, gains his first senior cap after just missing out in 1996. At the Olympic Trials he was runner-up to Hickman but outside the qualifying standard, which he eventually achieved too late at Summer Nationals. Stephen left his return to England a little late last year and felt he had not fully recovered from jet lag, but he learned from his mistake and did not make the same one again. SWIMNEWS/MAY 1997 A car crash last November had left Karen Pickering, the 1994 Commonwealth 100 freestyle winner, with a back injury, an injury from which she had taken some time to recover. During this period she had suffered several defeats at the hands of Claire Huddart. They had been in the 200 freestyle at the National Winter Championships and in the 50, 100, and 200 at the Leeds Grand Prix. Karen, who had also seen Susan Rolph swim close to her British 100 freestyle record, went to the trials in a more positive mood, having been able to put in a period of hard training. In the 100 freestyle she had to settle for second best to Susan , who was far from happy with her 56.24, stating "that was slower than my Cardiff time when I was not tapered." Susan went on to a comfortable win in the 50 freestyle and the 200 1. M., but had to share victory in the 1 00 butterfly with Olympic team captain, Caroline Foot, in 1:02.46. Karen, however, did get the better of Claire Huddart in the 100 freestyle by just one tenth in 56.71, which gave her confidence for the 200 freestyle, where she set the pace with Claire close behind. Claire inched ahead at the 150 but neither had seen that Vicki Homer had been steadily moving up on the field. Three quarters of a second down with 50 to go, she eased past the duo to win in 2:02.2 1, a mere 4/1 OOths ahead of Claire, with Karen in third place a further 0.33 behind. Former European junior team medallist Jessica Craig snatched fourth spot and a place on the relay with 2:04.59- Vicki Homer went on to complete a double in the 400 freestyle with a time of 4:18.18. Only two British records — one senior and one junior — were established during the four days of competition. In the heats of the 100 freestyle, Nick Shackell set a new record with his 50.04. The Ameri- can-based swimmer won the final in a slower time of 50.36. He said afterwards, "I went for it in the morn- ing as I knew I would have clear water," adding, "It's about time a British swimmer went under 50 sec- onds," and promised "next time." Helen Don-Duncan, the European Junior cham- pion, lowered the British junior record for the 200 backstroke when finishing runner-up to Jo Deakins. Her time of 2: 14.63 was just 0. 1 5 behind Deakins, but 0.98 faster than her time last August. But Helen Don-Duncan, Samantha Nesbit, and Edward Clements, who won their respective 400 l.M. races and are still eligible for this summer's Euro- pean Junior Championships to be held in Glasgow, have not been selected. Instead they will compete much to the anguish of their coaches, in the senior championships. It would have been possible for them to compete in the junior event, where they are all medal prospects, and still have a gap of three weeks before the senior event. Sarah Price, who narrowly missed Olympic selec- tion,won the 100 backstroke in 1:03.44, 0.17 seconds away from the British record.
