their own efforts. It is the inability
on the part of the new swimmer to re-
gain swimming position after attempt
ing to touch bottom and, discovering 1t
is cut OF reach, that causes SO many
fatalities during the swimming season.
"a survey conducted in Wilmington.
Del, for H. period Of five years revealed
that the most dangerous months for
drownings were from May to Septem-
Der so; that the most dangerous ages
were from ID to 80; and that the most
drownings occurred In areas adjoining
the city.
This is practically true also OF
Washington, for our drownings do not
occur In guarded swimming pools, but
in unsupervised open waters of the
Potomac, the Washington Channel and
the Eastern Branch.
Confidence Is Big Factor.
"It has been well said that the ART
Of swimming is 80 per cent confidence
and one per cent experience, and that
the latter Is so per cent of proper
breathing and so per cent the making
OF efficient strokes. The breathing anc
confidence may be acquired in but q
few lessons and enough idea of the
stroke can be quickly learned to make
real accomplishment a mere matter Of
practice"

 It will be the third crack at title aspirants for Akron's retired tire make, and If he gets by the squat ty Spaniard as impressively as he did Knute Hansen and Jack Shar- ley he will be in line to cash in heavily during the lucrative outdoor season.
 Eayo dropped the decision to the gibbering gob, but he made Jack look 70 bad that 1t will take more than a decisive victory over Young Stribling 10 make him title pros- pect, in the eyes of the 10000 who saw the Christener-s -sharkey fight.

Whether he is 10 as- sume that role definitely will be de termined in the Pauline battle. This is giving lot of attention to tho 34-year-old fistic freak. bu, these days yoI cannot overlook a man with a right fist full of dyna- mite and a fighting heart 10 keep it functioning.
 Kayo will be something like a i to 5 shot for this bout, as he was against Sharkey. He won't lack packers. for the Buckeye battlcr is the idol of the short -enders. H. has a knockout punch and has thu stamina and courage to stay in ther, swinging 1t from gong to gong.
