Red Cross Life-Saving Awards A NUMBER of college men and women have been successful in passing the Senior Life-Saving Test as outlined by the American Red Cross. Winning the membership card and the emblem denotes the attainment of considerable ability in swimming, for there are nineteen separate requirements that must be satisfactorily completed. The winner of the award must demonstrate his knowledge and proficiency in the various methods of rescue and resuscitation. Among other things he must disrobe in deep water and swim one hundred yards; be able to break the death grip and the strangle hold, and recover heavy weights in six to ten feet of water. The first student of Weber to win the award was Miss Ariel Frederick. Since then eleven women and three men have fulfilled the requirements. LEORA PETERS BERNICE LITTLEFIELD RHEA TAYLOR ERMA RICH CARMYN CRITCHLOW ZELDA SKINNER ARIEL FREDERICK KATHLEEN O'CONNOR Swimming THERE are three reasons why the swimming activities meet with such great popularity among the students: swimming is (1) an unparalleled physical exercise; (2) a practical accomplishment; (3) a fascinating recreation. Aquatic activities are of such a nature that most of the muscles of the body are brought into play. Diving develops not only coordination and balance, but also physical determination and courage. Considering the fact that three-fourths of the surface of the earth is covered with water, there are few people of wide activities who do not, at some time, find themselves "in the deep." When such a situation presents itself there are two alternatives: to sink or to swim, and the individual unafraid of the water can usually take care of himself. In addition to being an excellent exercise and a practical accomplishment, swimming is one of the most interesting of all sports. ARTHUR L. MARBLE WAYNE IVERSON RONDELL TANNER
