The Americans had not realised the round earlier in the day had been the quarterfinal, and they did not turn up for the semifinal. They were allowed to compete in a separate semifinal. The winner would qualify if he swam faster than the third finisher in semifinal one. Duke Kahanamoku did that by swimming a World Record. Ken Huzsagh was also allowed to progress since he equalled the time of Bill Longworth. Perry McGillivray also equalled that time, but he was not allowed to proceed. Mario Massa (see below) was also added to this extra semi-final, but he did not finish the race.
