SWIMMERS PROGRESS Coach Edgar Jackson Teaches Begin- ning, Advanced Classes at New Trier Natatorium Swimming classes at the New Trier High school natatorium are making rapid progress under the direction of Edgar B. Jackson, swimming coach at the school. A gallery of spectators is present each day to watch the swimmers and those who are learning to swim. Classes have been arranged to suit the needs of all ages and private in- struction is given to those who desire it. The instruction, is arranged so that pupils may enter at any time and progress just as fast as they are able. At present the ages run from three to fifty-five years. Although the teaching of beginners is empha- sized, advanced swimmers and divers also find a group to suit their par- ticular needs. Each year accidents happen to chil- dren and adults in the township who are not prepared when the boat tips, when they slip from the pier, when they step into a hole, or when a swift current catches them unawares. The school board at New Trier, realizing that such accidents happen frequently each year, decided to provide oppor- tunity for instruction in swimming under the supervision of a swimming coach who has had over twenty years experience. The New Trier natatorium is a fil- tered, sterilized, tile-lined lake of wa- ter twenty-five by sixty feet. It s tested daily and is tempered to suit the needs of those who are beginners. A campaign is on to develop fami- lies of swimmers in the township and the slogan which has been adopted 1s "Be at home in and around the water." Mr. and Mrs. Emil C. Olson of 1000 Vine street, had as their guests for the week-end, Miss Ruby Tapenthien and R. Ott of Milwaukee. --0-- Mrs. H. Edmund Sheerer is expected to return today to her home at 250 Poplar street from a trip to California. dedi WHAT IS MORE APPROPRIATE for any occasion than flowers?
