| Waupaca chain-o lakes.
The boys will have a picnic dinner
| at junction City and a baseball game
They will arrive in camp about four
o'clock in time for the afternoon
| swim. Circumstances have necessi-
| tated the withdrawal of several appli-
cations but Wausau is to be well rep
resented at the camp. The following
leaders will be with the Wausau dele
| cation: w. r. Boorman, Will Lampert
Paul Tobey, Norman Wang and Free

While the Wausau delegation is
quite anxious and confident of bring
ing back the aquatic and athletic
shields, it was learned on Saturday
that Grand Rapids has a delegation
of fifteen boys, some of them expert
swimmers. They have been spending
considerable time practicing in their
municipal swimming pool with the
hope of surprising the Wausau dele
cation in camp.
Saturday, August Goth, is the date
set for the aquatic meet, and it is also
to be Wausau Day in camp. Several
cars are to drive down to the camp
at that time, and a good delegation
of Wausau fathers and mothers will
be down to see the big meet. The
trophy was given the camp by G. E.
Turner of this city, and the place
which wins it three in five years can
keep it. Wausau has had it two years,
and Grand Rapids one year.
The Boys department which has
been closed for the summer will be
| re-opened on September 1st. A big
| program is being planned for that oc-
casion.
The swimming pool which has been
closed for two weeks by the health
authorities during the infantile par
alysis scare, will be re-opened this
week for classes.

by mothers IS long as the children do
as they should. 1t is also desired that
full bathing suits be worn, though no
