LIFE SAVING COURSE TO BEGIN TODAY IN NEW POOL
To Hold Two Classes Weekly for Three Weeks--To Give Test at the End of That Period
A three weeks course in life saving will start today in the swimming pool of the New Indoor Athletic Building. The course will be for senior life savers in the University who wish to pass their examination to become qualified examiners.
Instruction and tests will start today at 3 o'clock, and will continue with two classes every Tuesday and Thursday., from 3 to 4 o'clock and from 5 to 6 o'clock.
This examiner's test is considerably more difficult than the senior life saving test, and Coach Bob Muir advises men who intend to take the test to get into condition now, by swimming occasionally in the pool. The test to be taken at the end of the three weeks includes holding a ten-pound weight above the surface for several minutes by treading water, swimming a quarter of a mile free style, and retrieving a brick in ten feet of water without diving.
