point which presented methods
make essential is the dividing OF arm
and leg movements into distinct and
successive sets. In former days the
people were taught to use both to

work of propulsion before the legs are
moved at all. 1t is only when the
hands have reached the chest and are
starting forward on the recovery that
the legs begin to open. and they are
not snapped together until the arms
are fully extended.
Modern instructors say that this
system insures the best results because
