HOW TO SWIM
BY ADAM SMITH

should have a large wrinkle
in your neck at the base of the
skull. Keep your head in this
position with your face straight
ahead.
Now if you're right or left hand
ed, turn your head to the side
that is most natural to you, usual
ly If you're right handed, you'll
turn your head to the right side
though sometimes individuals will
turn their head to the left side.
2. Keep the water at the level
Of the eyebrows. Turn your
face to the right CHIN HELD
FORWARD, wrinkle in back
of the neck, your mouth will

ing the air out into the water, ex.
pelling it through the mouth and
nose. This will not be as easy as
it seems. You will actually have to
force the air out of your lungs,
into the water. Be sure it is the
same breath you gasped in a mo.
ment ago. Be sure you keep your
face in the water until all the air
is out OF the Lungs. After you have
blown all the air out of your lungs.
there always remains a good quan.
tity still in The chest.
Turn your face gently ana get
another breath remember Just a

der water.
The first Is times you try the
rythmic breathing will be the most
difficult. The more times you p-ac-
t1ce this exercises, the sooner you
will accomplish it.

80 inhales and exhales.
A. Common faults, dropping the
head too low.
B. Taking in to- much air.
c. Shaking the head, throws the
stroke out Of balance.
D. Breathing under the arm pits.
r. Not forcing the air out the
nose and mouth.

Breathing or breath control Is
the most important phase OF speed
swimming. So many individuals
swim as long as they can hold their
breath, and then they stop. rest
awhile, and then get another deep
breath and start swimming. Others
swim with their head well above
the water, they do not realize that
the head held out of the water,
weighs more than the rest of their
bodies in the water. The head out
of water also causes the SWIM
mer's legs to sink low in the water,
therefore making more work for
the embryo swimmer, because vir-
tually he is swimming up hill.
Swimming up hill is as Difficult:
as running up hill. The body posi-
ton of the swimmer is incorrect.
He pushes a wall of water in front
Of him rather than swim through
the water with the least resistance.
Breathing while swimming Is as
necessary as breathing while walk
ing or any other occupation an in
dividual may do. Correct breath
ing while swimming makes the
average swimmer feel so comfort
able in the water, that they do not
understand why so many people on
the beach are bathers instead OF
swimmers.
Breathing while swimming
should be learned by every one
that likes to play in water.
I have come to the conclusion
that swimmers and beginners will
learn to breathe in the water in
cycles Of five. Some individuals
will learn to breathe in five min
'utes, five hours, five days, five
weeks, or five months. It all de-
ponds on how soon n can feel
comfortable when water is about
and over their face and head.
Correct breathing while swim
ming will induce relaxation, will
deepen and widen the chest cavl-
ty, will help clean the membranes
Of the lungs OF some of the mucous
and impurities that may be caused
by smoking. I've known OF head
colds, sinus trouble relieved
through rhythmic breathing IN ch!or-
mated pools, and in ocean SWIM
ming.
Correct rhythmic breathing whe-
Their you are a speed swimmer or a
beginner, can be learned IN a wash
basin in your home, Wen assume
that we are in a POOL or at the
beach.
1. Go into the water waist
deep, bend at the hips keeping
your face in the water, raise
your chin so that the water
line is along the eyebrows. You
