Loo of them enjoyed the GOODNESS of the
three pools. The combined dimensions Of
the pools are Just Is by 1so feet and
when the surface Of the water Is studded
with thousand and q half Of multi
colored rubber bathing caps 1t reminds
one of a christmas tree.
There were no sharks In the pools Fri
DAY for several reasons. The chief one
Is that the water is enclosed In concrete
and the sharks could not get in II they
wanted to-
Yesterday more than 1900 men, wom-
en- and boys were in the pools. Hundreds
or people were standing In the suns siz-
znng rays all afternoon watching the
bathers churning the water in solid COM
fort Many of these had came with
the intention of bathing but were told
that there was not even standing room.
Superintendent s. c. Cousins states that
he admits all that he can accommodate
at all times but finds II necessary to turn
hundreds away each day. He adds that
IL those people living in the northwest
section Of the city would patronize the
Rosedale pools and those near George
town the Georgetown pools, the conges-
tion could be relieved to g. great extent.
