Never Swim Alone As temperatures rise and Americans begin flocking to beaches, pools, and water-ways to cool off and enjoy the water, the American Red Cross cautioned swimmers that almost 50 per cent of early summer drownings are caused by overexertion - trying to do too much too soon - after a winter of inactivity. “So take it easy the first few times out,” suggests John Davis, Water Safety Chairman, Augusta Chapter. “Don’t court disaster by overtaxing yourself before you have become conditioned to vigorous exercise in the water. Many of last year’s more than 7,000 drownings occurred in the early weeks of the season.” Swimming by yourself is another dangerous practice, says Davis. “Never swim alone,” he stressed. “Swim in supervised areas and even then with a companion who has the capability to assist if necessary.” Cramps are another swimming peril. Cramping in the fingers, toes, arms or legs is often caused by fatigue and overexertion. Such cramps are of little danger to the swimmer unless they cause him to panic. Relief is gained by stretching ° muscles. Sometimes this can done simply by changing u vimming stroke and relaxing, 11 doesn’t work, try rubbing or Kuv. the cramping muscles, adviseu the Red Cross. In any swimming emergency, Mr. Davis recommends, “Don’t panic, think calmly of the best corrective action and conserve your strength and energy.” For persons who cannot swim or are novices, the safety Appleby Features Artists Steven J. Anderson, pianist and Robert Chesebro, clarinetist, will be featured on Tuesday, June 29 in the second concert of the current Evenings in the Appleby Branch series.

Most Red Cross chapters throughout the country conduct some kind of swimming instruction. “By learning to swim proficiently,” said Mr. Davis, “you’ll get much more fun out of- the water and lessen your chances of becoming a water fatality.” A few more hints for swimmers recommended by the Red Cross are: 1. Don’t substitute floating devices for swimming ability. 2. Don’t dive into unknown water or shallow breaking waves. 3. Maintain close supervision of children at all times. 4. Don’t swim close to piers, pilings, diving boards and platforms. 5.

Should I send the money? Find out more before you do anything. The offer is very likely a variation of the “Death Vulture Confidence Game,” one of the most vicious tricks in the book. In this con game, the swindler picks his victim by reading the obituary page, or in your case military casualty lists. A short time later, he approaches a surviving relative, and says that the deceased had ordered a product prior to his death, but not paid for it. Many people, understandably desiring a “last gift” from a loved one, hand over the money without question. Os course the deceased had not really oruered anything, and the con man vanishes with the money. As in your case, they sometimes “sweeten the pot” by saying part of the money has been paid, or that you will get a special discount because of the tragedy.

SIDING GYP A salesman told us that his company wants to use our house to display their brand of aluminum siding. He said that if we let them put the siding on the house, they would pay us $50.00 everytime they brought a new customer to look at it. It sounds like a good deal. Should we take it? It does sound good; probably too good to be true. Georgia Consumer Services case files show a number of cases in which the people who accepted such an offer wound up having to pay around SI2OO for the siding, as the salesman never showed up with any other customers. In many cases, the people were told they had to sign a sales contract, “just as a formality,” but the commissions they received would actually cover the costs of the siding. Since the salesman brought no new customers to see the house, they were stuck with paying the bill, because their name Page 3 was on the contract. Always read the fine print of any contract, and if the salesman says something different, believe what’s in writing. Also, remember that under the U.S. Truth-in-Lending Law, you have three days to cancel a contract if you have put your home up as security, and under the Georgia Home Solicitation Sales Act, you have 24 hours to cancel a contract from a door-to-door salesman. Come July 1, 1971, this period will be increased to three days also. Always cancel a contract by registered letter clearly postmarked before the end of the grace period.
