Had Watters been able to place, he would have beaten the three invaders from Europe and Canada, who finished next in order. Hoff the versatile Norwegian, got third place followed by Paulin, the Netherlands representative and Christle of the University of Toronto Paulin's feat in getting fourth place 12 hours after stepping ashore from an ocean liner...
