SWIMMING AT q. Y. c. POOL

Continued from page one)
for mdntal and moral strength, COM
bined with clean living, productive OF
the highest and truest physical
strength is growing more persistent.
That cleanliness is next to Godli-
ness" is no longer looked upon as a
pleasant sounding phrase. 1t is be-
coming to be widely recognized as
the principle of the greatest value In
right living It Is in keeping with the
above progressive spirit that the Is.
Y. c. provided for the physical edu-
cation department swimming pool.
Ever since it's construction 1t has had
heavy patronage by students and
the public. Every week this summer
more than Ave hundred people have
been in the pool. The pool Is one
OF the best in the state and Is regu-
lated on purely sanitary basis. The
water is emptied out once week and
the sides and bottom of the pool are
ven thorough cleaning with
disinfectant In addition to the above
the water is sterlized before II is
evon allowed to enter the pool by be-
ing boiled. Besides this the water
is thoroughly disinfected with chemi-
calls twice week. With these pre-
cautions the water is absolutely safe
from disease germs.
Swimming is not only the premier
sport for all ages and both sexes
but an accomplishment every man and
woman is duty bound to possess. No
child should grow up without learn
ing how to swim. There are few in
deed who do not in course Of their
lives have occasion to cross or travel
upon the bosom of waters of such
depths as to offer almost certain death
to the persons who have no knowl-
edge of swimming, should misfortune
overtake them.
The swimming pool offers a never
ending source of pleasure and amuse-
ment. One has only to visit 1t 20
see swarms of merry people. All
people are made happy in water and
the influence of water is Of such
nature that It eXhilarates all. The
people of Logan, in general should
wake up to the fact that such an ad-
vantage is here.

gressman Hobson had formally pro-
tested against the appointment of Tom
l.. Long of this city to the position of

Some time ago Mr.. Long sent mis- in
dorsements, bound in two volumes, to

Maneuvers Successful In Bringing Men Before Real
Conditions Confronted In Actual Warfare

fore the men the real conditions confront
ed in actual warfare. The problem, which
was to locate a hostile fleet in the dark
and destroy it, was worked out success
fully in 40-mile gale with the seas
sweeping the decks as high as the bridge
and washing over the tops of the high
foreca stiles. Through these seas the 20
destroyers were driven at 20 knots with
lights extinguished. Life lines were
stretched across the decks and officers
and men went about their duties with
their life preservers strapped about them.
The flagship Dixie. with the destroyers
Cassin and Wake represented the enemy.
The scene of action was between Point
