Students Contact Washburn Students enroling in the course should contact L. P. Washburn in the gymnasium. Persons must be holders of senior life0saving certificates. The course is open not only to students, but to anyone in the county possessing senior certificates. Upon completion of the course, persons will be eligible to teach classes in water safety and give examinations for junior and senior life-saving certificates. Class Mostly Women The class is expected to be comprised mostly of women this year. The life-guard field is open to them more than ever before, because the number of available life-guards is much less than in ordinary times. A closely-connected field is that of swimming councellors for summer camps. The classes will be held each evening from 7 to 10 o’clock in the men’s pool and in room N207. A part of the course will consist of lectures and moving pictures illustrating swimming strokes and methods. Students should bring a notebook and pencil, and come prepared to go into the water the first night. If the time does not suit the group as a whole it may be changed somewhat.
