Mill creek is nearly 200 feet wide
at the Big Brothers camp and directly
opposite the camp there is a natural
safe swimmin' hole" about five feet
deep. The safety zone is about fifty
yards in length and the same distance
in width Around the safety zone five
rowboats manned by ten men will be
stationed whenever the boys go in
swimming. At the least sign of dis
tress there will be five rowboats and
five experienced swimmers go to the
rescue. And they will act as patrols
to prevent the boys from getting into
deep water.
The directors of the camp are doing
a lot of figuring this week A sub
