1t Takes Co. Ordination If
You Hope to Be Pro-
fiCient.
BY HELEN LINDSAY

You've got to have rhythm if you
expect to learn to swim. But don't
let that discourage you. Earl
Montgomery, swimming instructor
in The Times-Broad Ripple pool
free swimming course, says every
one has it. In ten years of eX-
perience as a swimming instructor,
he never has found any person who
couldn't learn.
Friday I was introduced to the
intricacies of the arm stroke of the
crawl. It's probably the most diff
cult of the six lessons in the course.
AS the right arm reaches forward,
the left arm is brought back, lifted
from the water, with the elbow
heXed, and then brought far in
front.
The same movements then are
made, reversing the arms. That
may not sound SO difficult, but when
it is accompanied by rhythmic kick
ing of the feet, in regular waltz
time" three kicks to each arm
stroke, complications develop. That's
why it's called the siX-beat flutter.'
Teacher Is Mind Reader
There are just too many things to
think about. Montgomery, by the
way, is somewhat of a mind reader.
At least he is in the water. After
each attempt to master the rhythm
of the crawl, he would comment on
its success or failure.
That time you didn't think about
your feet; you were too interested
in getting your arms moving right"
he said. Then at the third stroke,
you remembered your kick"
1 must have looked puzzled. One
hardly expects a swimming instruc-
tor to be psychic. But Montgomery
gave a logical explanation of his oc-
cult powers.
Il can tell when you suddenly re-
member that you are supposed to
kick" he explained. Your feet,
which have been trailing along care
lessly, suddenly begin to kick as they
are supposed to.
Not Black Magic
Then, when you have been con-
centrating on them, you suddenly
remember that your arms must be
brought out of the water, and for a
few minutes they are used in the
proper manner"
III have to admit I was a little
disappointed. What had seemed like
the mystery of black magic was just
the wisdom Of an accomplished and
observing teacher.
When you clip your third coupon
out of The Times, which entities you
to the lesson on combining the kick
and the arm movements. take my
advice. Forget your inhibitions Of
you have any Left and get ready
TO perform to imaginary waltz time.
AS I said before, you've just gotta
have rhythm.
The swimming course viii open
Monday, for readers Of The Times.

FENN|NG STORY
REFUTED HERE

District officials have refuted
statements by former District
Commissioner Frederick A. Fen
ming that the Federal Government
is assuming functions formerly re-
served to the local government.
Jennings statements were con-
tfined in an article in a New York
newspaper and declared that the
Department of Justice has taken
over much Of the work Of the local
Police Department and that the
President is planning to obtain
the designations of members of
the Public Utilities Commission.
The President, Fenning said, is
laying the groundwork for a gen.
eral reorganization of the District
Government. and appoint a local
governor for a term Of 10 or II
years.
Major Ernest w. Brown, super
intendent of police, said none of
the work of his department has
been absorbed by the Federal
agency and Public Utilities Com
mission officials denied any know
ledge Of action such as Fenning
outlined.

.10,000,000-TON
COAL PURCHASE
URGED ON J.. 8.

A delegation of about SO busi-
ness men, bankers and other lead
ers of industry in the Pennsyl-
vania anthracite coal region today
called on Harry L. Hopkins, Fed
eral Relief Administrator, to ask
that the Government buy 10000
900 tons so that miners might be
put back to work.
Headed by Thomas Murphy,
president of the Scranton Cham
ber of Commerce and associate
editor of the Scranton Times, and
Representatives Patrick BoWland,
Frances Walters and Murray Tur-
pin, the delegation spent an hour
with the administrator presenting
facts as to conditions in the an
thracite region, sorely hit by eco
nomic distress in the past four
years.
They suggested that the Gov
ernment buy the coal and dis
tribute it toneedy of the nation
in the same manner it has pro-
vided fodostuffs, cotton, and
other commodities. The cost Of
the coal was estimated at $75,-
100000. 1t purchase would affect
100000 persons in the region,
which comprises five counties IN
the northeastern section of the
State. BY it, 10000 persons
would be put back to work in a
year.
Collieries in the region have
been shut down for. from 18
months to four years. AS proof
of the seriousness of the situa-
ton, it was pointed out that in
Mahonoy City alone, with a popu-
lation of $4,000, a total Of $4,000
is on the rolls for food orders,
q monthly outlay of $4,000.

BRIDGE

by VIM. T.. MchENNEY
(Secretary, American Bridge League)
The principle at auction bridge was
to open with a weaker hand in first
or second position than you would in
third or fourth position. However
this principle has been definitely
proven wrong at contract.
When you make first or second
hand bid, you are laying the founda-
ton upon which you and your part
ner hope to build for game or slam
If this foundation is not sound, and
you arrive at high contract, you are
apt to suffer severe penalty.
The Bidding
South, in the, following hand, has
a doubtful bid, therefore no serious
harm can come from pass. West
will also pass. North makes a protec-
tive third bid of one heart.
South puts in one over one force
Of one spade. West can bid two dia-
monds. North, due to the fact that
he has made a weak opening, should
now pass. East can reserve his bid
and pass.
South will then bid two spades and
West passes. North shows his second
five-card suit by a bid of three clubs.
East bids three diamonds.
South is now justified in jumping
to four spades-because, since he
passed originally, partner won't mis-
take this for a slam invitation. AS
East and West we're vulnerable and
North and South not vulnerable,
West could not take the sacrifice Of
five diamonds.
The Play
The king of diamonds was opened
by West, who then shifted to a trump

many actual sales have been made,

velop into sales have been received.

the real estate business will lead the
way toward recovery in this section.

Minnesota Refuses
To Help Balloonists

Minneapolis, June 10.-R)-In-
quiries concerning how to stage
a barn dance, how to bait hook
for pickerel, or how to ride horse
through timber are commonplace
at the state tourist bureau.
But something more than I'M
usual came Saturday when a resi-
dent of Dorchester, Mass, asked
the state of Minnesota, for the
good of medicine and science"
to become a partner In a strato-
sphere expedition.
To make the expedition possible.
the state would be required to pay
freight on the open-basket bal
loon to be used, from Boston to
st. Paul, supply $4,000 cubic feet
Of hydrogen and furnish volun-
teers to help initiate the bag.
w. j. Perry, the writer of the
letter, declared the men who will
take the balloon up, Mark E.
Ridge and Max Cosyn, will ascend
Is miles. three miles beyond the
mark set by Auguste Picard IN
Europe a few months ago.
G. w. Bradley, state tourist bu-
reau head, declared he would have
to turn the proposition down, due
to reduced budget.

but South, the declarer, overlook with
the ten, and then led diamond, ruf-
fling in dummy.
A small heart was returned and won
with the king. The ace and king OF
trump were led, leaving West with
the good queen. East echoed In clubs.
The declarer must not lead the
trump or West will knock his ace OF
clubs out Immediately. What he must
do is to lead the ten Of hearts. When
West plays the jack, oeclarer should
go up with the ace in dummy and re-
turn a heart which East will win with
the queen.
Now, when East returns the king OF
clubs, the declarer will win in dummy
and discard his losing club on the
dummy's good heart. West Is help
less. All he can do its to trump with
the queen, and the declarer has made
his contract of four odd.
