THE OSHAWA TIMES, 17 Wednesday, August 19, 1964 Ryder Answers Lake Ontario Swim Critics PORT DALHOUSIE, Ont. ' (CP) -- Marathon swim coach Gus Ryder said today that mar- athon swimming is a "great sport" which shouldn't be '"con- demned because you personally don't like it," . Answering detractors to the * Canadian National Exhibition's 32-mile Lake Ontario swim, the former coach of Marilyn Bell and Cliff Lumsdon said: "I hear claims that marathon swim- ming is dangerous, cruel, inhu- man, unnecessary." "Yet there has never been a in an organized mara- thon to my knowledge. Compare that to the figures for other fields--335 died in a soccer riot in Peru, 13 last year in boxing, about 60 a year in football. And about 40,000 last year on U.S. highways," he said in a pub- lished statement. Toronto Controller William Dennison, a CNE sports com- mittee member, called Tuesday for cancellation of the swim as "too gruelling and even danger- ous." But CNE officials said there was no chance that the swim, scheduled for Thursday, would be cancelled, although it could be postponed 24 hours if water conditions are not satisfactory. The swim is to begin here along part of the south shore of Lake Ontario which actually is part of the city of St. Cathar- ines about 6 p.m. Thursday and it should take about 20 hours for swimmers to reach the CNE waterfront in Toronto, if any make it. The lake has been con- quered by only five swimmers.

Drug Heals Horses At Fort Erie . ._ FORT ERIE, (CP) -- A t was di cl. It has been mentioned in med- ical journals as being effective in easing the pain of bursitis and also as a treatment for bad burns.
