ARTICLE VI.

WE have had in previous arti
W cIes something about the
spectacular speed swimming, and
something about the principles OF
breath control. The latter is a
subject in which all beginners
are interested. They puzzle about
and grope eagerly to find some
practical hints to explain it. :
They may paddle around for
years, fighting the water and
fighting their lungs. making little
or no progress. They wonder
what is wrong, but there is no
one to tell them. If they could
only find out, it would open a
new vista to them. 1t would bring
a new era. Their abilities would
be multiplied as if over night.
For this reason | plan to go
into considerable detail. Having
taught swimming for twenty-five
years ] have come to appreciate
the importance Of this subject. |
speak Of it so that others may
not underestimate this section OF
the series.
In the last lesson | told you
the theory of breath control.
Now in this lesson l hope to be
able to give you the exercises SO
you can put this theory into
practice.
First. it is advisable to have a
little preliminary drill on dry
land. ! would suggest that you
sit down in comfortable chair.
Open your mouth by relaxing
your lower jaw enough to Say
"Ah-ah !" or to take a bite out
of big chocolate cake at
picnic.
Then relax your diaphram. AS
you do this the air pressure
forces the air into your lungs
through your mouth. Do not
suff your lungs. Take whatever
air the outside pressure puts in
naturally. Just take a quick
bite.

Under ordinary conditions rec
ommend that a low tee be used.
The reason for this is simple-when
high tee is used the player is, in
effect, using a club which is just as
much shorter than the usual length
of his clubs as the height of his tee.
After driving from the high tee and
being obliged to make the next shot
from ground level with a brassie or
a spoon, it is just as though he
were using different length handles
to his club. Naturally this throws
a player off his game. The illus
tration makes the point clear.

Dry Land Exercises Outlined
For Learning Breath Contro

Natural breathing is somewhere
between sixteen and twenty-five
times a minute. Try to do this
unnatural exercise at the natural
pace. The mouth is not opened
wide for the purpose of suffiing
your lungs, but to enable you to
get your. air easily and quickly
and to decrease suction. In this
exercise the mouth should snap
open at the finish of the exhal-
alton and take quick bite.
Take your breath very quickly
and blow it out slowly Are you
dizzy after doing this? If you
are. it is because you stuff your
self inhaling and you blow out
too much air exhalipg, as l told
you a while back.
I6 to u Times a Minute.
A RE you relaxed as you sit in
N your chair practicing this
exercise? You probably will
notice a decided tendency to
tense your muscles. Relax. Try
to keep up the regular, steady
breathing pace of sixteen to
twenty-five times a minute.
Now that you have gained some
idea of voluntary breathing, let's
try to put it into practice.
Take a breath, fill your lungs.
shut your mouth and hold your
breath for a few seconds. Now
with extra compression on your
lips, give a foroible, explosive
blow to empty your lungs.
Immediately open your mouth
and let the air run into your
lungs. Follow this up by breath
ing very easily and normally. al
with your mouth, of course, until
you get back TO normal.
Always open your mouth wide
when you inhale. To the begin
ner this gaping looks ungainly,
but if you watch any experienced
swimmer you will notice that he
always opens his mouth wide
when he inhales. The forceful
explosive exhale will be used to
advantage in the next lesson,
which will be in the water.
