Famous U. 8. Coast Guard Swimmer.


HERE are all sorts of styles
of swimming on the side. But
the most important point in
such style of swimming is not the
style of the arms, but the style of
the legs. The leg motion is more
important than that of the arms.
Suppose you are swimming on your
right side. That brings the right leg
under. The leg kick to use IS the
scissors kick. This is how the Kick is
done:
The under leg bends backward at
the knee.
The upper leg swings forward as
far as possible.
The legs are then snapped together
as fast and powerfully as. is possible.
Then count three slowly and repeat
the movements.
DO not use great effort in spreading
the legs apart each time but put all
the snap and pep in bringing them
together agaifn Because there is
where the power ID made.
A fair swimmer will find that after
q little practice he may swim with the
legs alone and not bother about an
arm motion. That is how important

from the allotment of two days for
