Comment On Sports By Pete Fritchie Washington, D. C. - The second-guessers are still at it over the Belmont Stakes and Bill Hartack is getting heavy criticism for his performance on Majestic Prince, beaten by five and a half lengths by Arts and Letters. A goodly number of Ma jestic Prince's boosters think Hartack allowed him to loaf through an extremely slow pace too long, until so far back he had no chance to catch a horse like Arts and Letters when the latter turn ed on the steam. And Arts and Letters can turn on the steam, especially if the pace hasn't been strenuous, in the stretch. Hartack resents the criti cism but he will have to live with it a long time; that's inevitable since Majestic Prince was going for the Triple Crown-a once in a lifetime thing Those who think this goal makes it im perative that the jockey hust le his horse all the way, never playing it cautiously, have a point. But Hartack believes the Prince just didn't have it. That means -if an accurate prognosis, that Johnny Long den was probably right when Franklinton Softball Results (Frk. B.W.)

Owner Frank McMahon decided to enter the Prince after all-some say there was too much pressure from track people-and afterward he seemed to agree that Longden might have been right. What did he think of Hartack's ride? The official reply is that the Prince just didn't have it. But the questions will remain, even though Arts and Letters won by a big gap-just as his people swore they would do when they lost the Derby, and seemed bitter about it all.

Water Safety Begins With You New York (NAPS) - No one knows when man first summed enough courage to jump into a body of water instead of walking around it. One thing is sure-he's been doing it ever since! After countless ages, swim ming remains one of man's most useful, beneficial sports. Few other activities combine as much exercise, relaxation and sheer fun. Another reason for swim ming's timeless popularity: nearly everyone-young, old, even the handicapped -can en joy it. A sunny day at a lake or beach . . . any day at an indoor pool . . . and the fun begins. , But swimming also has a serious side. Statistics show five to seven thousand Ameri cans drown each year!

And rescue attempts by unquali fied swimmers can multiply tragedies. No one should at tempt a water rescue until he's passed an expert course In rescue techniques. Not all of water safety is directly related to swimming. The recent rise in popularity of boating and skin diving has added to the problem. , Once more, application of common sense rules can keep you free of trouble. Most important rule ... as with all water activity ... is only good swimmers should igo boating or attempt skin div I >??* *T- I "?8 Other tips: when getting into a small boat, use only the stern or the bow so you have greater stability. Don't dive from boats; you may literally knock yourself out. When you want to take a dip, throw in a rope or ancjior to make sure of the depth, slide into the water and keep close by. If alone, keep a grip on the tow line. Though following the safe ty rules avoids most acci dents, a few emergencies may still occur. If they do, remem ber: the best policy is always to keep calm, and use your head. Here are some emergen cy rules laid down by YMCA experts: If a boat capsizes-stay with the boat. If a swimmer is in trcuble-and you're not a rescue expert -try reaching him with a pole or clothing or throw him something buoy ant to hang on. Sometimes it'i possible to reach the swimmer by hanging on to a dock or float with your free hand. Even if the rescued swim mer looks in hopeless shape, quick application of artificial respiration usually revives him. For adults, kneel on one knee and (ace the victim's head. Place victim's hands palm- over-hand-under-cheek. Rock forward-your hands flat on the victim's shoulder blades. Lift your hip? to shift part of the weight, rock for ward and press firmly. Slide back smoothly, lift and pull upper arms, then lower arms to the ground. Repeat the cycle 12 times a minute. When the victim's under four years old, the easiest, most effective artificial respi ration technique is the mouth to mouth method. Clear the child's mouth, press tongue forward, place him in a face down, head-down position and pat firmly on the back to dislodge foreign objects. Next, place the child on his back and use the middle fin gers of both hands to lift his lower jaw until it juts out. Hold the jaw in this posi tion with one hand, place your mouth over the child's mouth and jaw. Breathe into his mouth until his chest rises- keep your free hand on the child's abdomen between navel and ribs. When lungs are expanded, remove your mouth to let him deflate. Repeat cycle 20 times a min ute. That's all It takes to blunt the edge of danger; a little effort to know-and follow -the basic rules. One last item: the YMCA operates over 765 swimming pools. In each you can learn how to swim--or to improve your swimming ability. Have a happy -and safe -summer!
