Written in collaboration with swimmer Guy Larcom, Jr., the volume contains numerous illustrations of natatorial technique a la Ulen. Speed aces Charlie Hutter and Willie Kendall spent many minutes last year posing for pictures to show how real swimmers use their arms and legs. There is also a chapter devoted to women swimmers, profusely illustrated, of course...
...semitism, with attempted similarity to the cheap vaudeville of DER STUERMER. Those who have seen the reproductions in a recent issue of LIFE magazine will recognize in this placard a poor exhibition of intolerance and bigotry which is characteristic of all fascist literature in this country.

But the Union has neglected Suzie. As yet no demands by the Union or provisions by the University have been made to boost the retirement income of low-wage employees. Suzie's case is therefore far more desperate than Jenny's. Obviously Suzie can not take much more out of her present wages to contribute to the Pension Plan and still keep her financial nose above water...
