Who Hesitates? Never A Quard I recall a bone chilling, freezing Monday morning last January; our gleaming white pool filled to the edge witli smiling blue water greeted me. I was barely able to resist the over whelming urge to plunge in immedi ately on such a grand day. Gathered together on the pool's edge, we all looked longingly into the clear inviting depths; however my deep con sideration and courtesy for my asso ciates compelled me to restrain my self and permit all my classmates the great pleasure and exhilaration of en tering the water first. Being extremely doubtful of their appreciation of my generosity, I en couraged my nearest little chum to enter by the expedience of a slight nudge. She disappeared beneath the water in a paroxysm of joy. Having performed this act of unsel fishness, I modestly retired to the ex treme end of the room to escape the spontaneous praises showered upon me. However, in deep sympathy for my bashful nature, the girls unanimously decided to bestow upon me the honor of being the dummy for their Life Sav ing class. I was deposited in the approximate center of the pool and instructed to relax. Lying there on my back gent ly floating along and meditating on the last coke dance, which seemed years ago, I was suddenly torn from my reverie by what felt like the flip per of a seal across my nose and mouth. Upon closer investigation I dis covered a well-shaped biccp fiendish ly jntent upon saving me. Gently grab bing the arm I muscled it down under my chin to prevent my asphyxiation. Shyly glancing over my shoulder I found myself being towed like a Cun- ard Liner toward the distant end of the pool. Evidently the progress was too slow, for 1 felt a hand tenderly caress my new hangs and firmly fasten itself therein. Thus excruciatingly I was finally rescued by two potential heroes. I climbed out and felt for my hair: it was still there more or less and so, the day began. Interclass Swim Meet Is May 2 The annual Interclass Swimming meet has been set for May 2.
