and gets his forward motion
principally bysnapping his legs
together. In so doing it takes
well developed adductor mus

and, barring children and
horseback riders, two or three
years are required to develop
these muscles even after the
stroke is learned.

got at the very start of his
swimming career the most
modern of all strokes, the
crawl. But instead he set
about a series of experiments
which eventually. led to the
breast stroke,-the most diff
cult of all swimming strokes
to learn, the hardest to swim,
and the least useful after it is
learned. The arm movement
of this stroke was undoubtedly

a considerable distance in
calm water; but when the
wind blew and the waves rose
it made breathing difficult. and
many a drowning took place,
until the trick of turning on
the back to cough and splut-
ter was mastered. When a lit
tie extra speed was desired it
was the practice to recover the
arms out of the water and
make the pull downward and
outward, the arms making an
angle of about forty-five de-
grees with the body.
If man had only conceived
the idea of pulling his chin in
with this stroke, thus sinking
the heavy head, and exhaling
under the water, he would have

breathing easier. AS swimming
advanced, however, the tim
ing was changed so that the
legs kicked the arms away, as
it were, and dragged straight
behind during their pull. Then
they made a quick recovery
at the conclusion of the arm
pull and without pause pro-
ceeded to kick again. The
prayerlike position of the

watch a frog in the water,
however, will notice that it gets

legs at a time, propelling itself
by showing the soles of the feet
against the water. He tried
to do likewise; but in spite of
himself alternated and timed
the kick so that the right arm
pulled as the right foot showed
back and the left arm pulled
as the left foot showed. After
considerable practice by this
method it did not take long
to find out that the straight
back leg kick required more
actual effort than when the legs
were dragged along without
any kick at all. This was be-
cause the negative part of the
leg stroke, or in other words the
recovery, presented more of a
resisting surface to the water
than the soles of the feet. It

the swapping of the legs together, and most of the
power is derived from it.
Changes and Improvements in swimming strokes
made very slowly indeed, and the curious part of
it is that communities adopted improvement and
clung to it for generations, until some champion
would cause the younger element to take up idea.

stroke. On recovering the legs
for the kick, the heels are kept
together while being drawn up,
and there is rather more than
a right angle formed with the
under parts of the legs as sides,
the apexes of course being
under the knees. The insides
of the thighs meeting at the
crotch form an angle rather
greater than a right angle, as
do also the insides of the lower
legs running down to the heels.
At the beginning of the recov-
cry the ankles are flexed to
bring the toes up toward the
shin. Without pause from the
recovered position, the kick
is made by simultaneously
Strengthening each leg at the
knee and at the same time
pointing the toes and draw
ing the legs together. The
feet are twisted slightly out

Some swimmer evidently
noticed that there was con-
siderable difference between
the speed of a mud scow and
that of a sharp-nosed boat.
He therefore turned on his
side and used the same move
ments as in the breast stroke.
This was the starting of the
side stroke. AS recently as
July, 1912, an English SWIM
mer competing in a three-mile
swim on the Potomac River
used this stroke. He stated
that he knew no other save the
breast stroke, and that every
one in his home community
knew but these two.
After the breast stroke had
been swum on the side for
sometime, an occasional SWIM
mer began to see its defects
and set about to improve it.
