practised may keep tragedy from

1. Wait at least two hours
after eating before going in
swimming.
2. Don't go in all 'het up -
wait until your body has cooled

3. Use the buddy system -
where two or three agree to
stick close together.
4. No distance swimming with
out company - friends in a
boat just in case!
5. Two or three short sWims a
day are better than one long
firing experience.
6. Know the swimming abil-
ity of your water companions.
7. Know your own physical
condition. Many swimming ac-
cidents are not really drown
ings, but due to heart failure or
cramps.
8. No diving into strange or
shallow waters (save your neck
no fractured spine).

CLEVELAND - U.P) - Re-
searchers at the Case School of
Applied Sciences at Cleveland
have disclosed that they have
been working two years on a
water publication project and
that as result of their efforts,
American fighting men around
the world have avoided poison
ed water.
The exact method involved in
the publication system is still a
secret.
The project was assigned
when the Germans either were
poisoning every well or putting
signs on them marking them
poisoned.
The work was under the di-
rection of Prof. Matthew NJ.
Braidech, who, along with four
assistants, found antidotes for
about dozen contamination
agents.
They developed a kit weigh
ing only a few ounces. 1t con-
tanned several tubes of dry re-
agents for use in detecting and
identifying poisons put in water
by the enemy.
Some Of the publication pro-
cesses developed by the Case
men have an application in city
water systems, Prof. Braidech
said.
Braidech and his Case School
staff received certificates of
merit from the National De-
Tense Research Committee.

warning has been issued TO all
swimmers to take necessary
precautions against drowning.
Although the summer is only
several weeks old, at least five
drownings have been reported
already, several of which could
have been averted had neces-
sary safety measures been taken,
CARELESSNESS CITED
It was pointed out that the
people that drown are not neces-
sarily poor swimmers because
many drownings are also evil
dent among persons who are ex-
cellent swimmers but are adj
venturous, careless and violate
the rules of personal safety.
Among the many things which
have been listed as dangerous
for good swimmers is going into
the water right after eating,
swimming to much at one time,
diving head first into strange
water. swimming alone ard
swimming too far out, forgetting
that he needs the necessary en-
ergy to return.
In order that the proper atti-
tude be taken about swimming
and safety measures, the De-
