Remember. the drowning person
wants to get up and out Of the water.
He will try to literally walk" on you.
Therefore. all your movements must
be DOWN. In breaking any hold you
must work down under his arms or
legs-neyer upward. When you are
s~ubnerging yourself remember the
drowning person will not try to nolu
you. 1t is only when you are on top
Of the water that you interest him at
all.
Breaking these holds is likely to
exhaust even a good swimmer, so re-
peat, call for help before you enter the
water and take a board or plank with
you il possible.
Tomorrow l will tel you the first
moves to be made when the uncon-
scious victim is brought ashore.
