 CROSBY COURSE
Red Cross Swimming Classes to Start Next
 MOnG y Evening

The winter term of the American Red Cross swimming classes for wo- men will get underway next Monday evening in the Crosby high school pool it was announced this morning by Mrs. Edith M. Ladd, executive secretary of the local Red Cross chapter.
 The winter term classes will con- tinue for 12 weeks, ending March 29. Doctors health certificates will be required of all new members. Dr. Harold F. Merrill of 300 West Main street, will examine free during of- flee hours.
 Miss Florence Turnbull, physical director for girls at Crosby, will be instructor of these classes, assisted by Mrs. Howard Kraft.
 Instruction will be given in the following swimming strokes: Crawl, back sculling, side stroke fright and lefD, back crawl, simple back stroke, 2 types of breast stroke, single over arm, trudgeon and trudgeon-c Life saving techniques will be taught covering the American Red Cross requirements which include methods in lodging, breaking holds, carrying people, accident prevention, and ar- tificial respiration. Stunts and wa ter games will be used, not only to get acquainted with the water but to make friends with it. When you trust the water as friend, you no longer fear it and so do better and enjoy it more. Games will be to relax tired muscles and mental cares, and for real fun. Plain and fancy diving will be taught to those who wish to try these wa ter activities. All this will not be taught in one term but in the course of progress in the art of swimming.
 Many of the Rainbow Band" tests were completed last term and one member who was a beginner about three years ago swam her first quarter mile (22 lengths of the pooD without resting. This achievement record was made by Miss Lillian Judd.
