Remember, always play safe in water." This common sense advice was suggested today by County Agent Ben Jenkins of the State College Extension Service. With the opening of the water sports season, the National Safety Council makes some positive recommendations based on research and study Into the water safety problem. Swimming is fine exercise for those in proper physical condition, but If you are not feeing well, stay out of the water, especially deep water. Atso, take it easy at the beginning of the season until you are in good condition. ? Wait tor a time following pi^als before entering the water and do not * swim if overheated. Take sufficient time to oool off before going in the water even though the temptation may be great. It- Is advisable to swim only with a good swimmer or lifeguard.

Mr. Jenkins pointed out that on? does not need to be a "landlubber' wfth a canoe, rowboat, or outboard motor. Needless tragedies can be avoided by. using good Judgment. The National Safety Council recommends the following safety precautions: Never overload your boat. There may be seats for more people than the boat should carry. Know and heed weather signs and avoid staying out in storms. Always step into the center of a boat--never jump; and never stand up in a moving boat. Never smoke while fueling. Make sure your motor is not too powerful for the boat. In case of capsizing, stay alongside the boat and hang on to the side but don't try to climb in. A boat with air tanks will stay afloat indefinitely and will support several per? sons. Relax, be calm, signal for help and wait for it to arrive. > - . .. . ' ' ; . * ?TRY HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS?
