course is the yearly Learn To
Swim" campaign. Last year, 1872
boys were taught to swim and 26
chaps were awarded their Senior
Life Saving pins.
Smith organized six different
basketball circuits, all of which are
in full blast now. The Cadet,
Junior, Older Boys, Senior League,
Junior Sunday School, and Senior
Sunday School. Leagues were
staged last year and Smith an
nounced recently that several more
loops will go into action this year.
Most servicemen will gladly re
port that the various "Y's" have
served as another home to them.
Five thousand, five : hundred and
fifty-three CTS took part in Will
mington's YMCA athletic program
in 1916.
Plans are in the premature stage
to expand the "Y" gymna-

what a blessing he had bestowed
upon this world in organizing the
first YMCA.
The. Wilmington "eY" has served
its citizens faithfully. There are so
many remarkable. things that are
accomplished at the "Y" that it
would take virtually weeks to ex-
plain. So, let's glance at one par
ticular division of the Wilmington
YMCA. This section is headed by
friendly Adam Smith, physical edu-
cation director.
In all probability there are more
participants in Smiths division
than il any other department.
These contestants range from 10
years old to IS.
Smith and his staff of assistants
strive to give Wilmington the best
athletic program possible and judg-
ing from the yearly reports their
efforts have not been in vain.
1t has been said that" variety
is the spice of life" Smith fol
lows this pattern daily in offering
volleyball, basketball, football,
baseball, hand-bau plus the various
indoor activities for both the young
and old.
The "Y" has a gym, rs by 40,
and downstairs in the Health
club" all of the latest equipment
has been installed, such as cleo
trio cabinet baths, hot and cold
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-01-12

showers, sun light, rest tables,
x ray machine, vibrating chair,
walkers, rowing machines, twisting
chairs, horse and buck apparatus,
and the running track.
In the sweat room, there are
three experienced masseurs, who
give Individual treatment. And the
Health clubs medicine cabinets
are supplied with the best equip
ment that can be purchased.
Last year, Smith conducted 2,168
classes for the senior participants
with a turnout of "a, 844 persons.
In the younger boys section, 1918
sessions were staged with an at
tendance of 26,376.
Smith pointed out than an aver
age of $40 youngsters visited the
"Y" each week with the older
groups being represented by APP
proximately 100 athletic = hungry
citizens.
A closer check with Smiths
yearly report revealed that 979
games we're held for the younger
boys. These attractions con-
sisted of touch football, basketball,
baseball and volleyball. Attendance
in these games hit way above the
1000 mark.

BRIGADE BOYS
AID CAMPAIGN
Club Members Contributing
Towards March Oh Dimes
Polio Fund

Members of the Brigade Boys
club are cooperating with the Will
mington and New Hanover county
Infantile Paralysis campaign,
James w. Copeland, club director,
reported last night.
Posters are now being promi.
nently displayed in the club rooms
and the boy members have been
asked to carry home to their par
ents the story of the urgent needed
for. the support OF this program.
Club members themselves are
rallying to the cause by bringing
their own pennies, nickels, and
dimes to the club as contributions
to the local drive" Copeland said.
This means that for the next few
weeks the boys are sacrificing the
money they would ordinarily b.
spending for candy chewing gum
and ice cream, for the benefit o!
the polio campaign.
IF the boys can sacrifice this
much in behalf of the March Of
Dimes" the club Feels the citizen.
OF Wilmington can match the chill
dren's dimes, with their dollars tc
support the drive" Copeland said.
