way I passed children's concrete
swimming pool which was drained
from the bottom every three hours and
refilled 80 minutes later-also from
the bottom. The maximum height of
the water in this pool, 100x40, is 3
feet.
LAS drove past at about is miles
an hour noticed that the depth of
the water was about IL inches and
that there were five children wading
about; two boys and three girls. While
I didn't see the drain, and the water
was smooth as glass, I knew the pool
was being emptied and not being re-
filled
I'm going to give you boys exactly

can all go swimming. Quickly, now!"
HOW DID FORDNEY KNOW THE
