Fixing Bathing Beach Schedule,

Whether women will be permitted to
share the Sunday schedule with men at
the municipal bathing beach Is being
considered by Frederick J. Drummer. In
connection with the framing of the per-
manent schedule for the season. Until
the regular schedule opens the large
pool will be open to either sex between
10 am. and pm week days and II
a m. and pm. on Sundays. No suits or
towels will be furnished.
