George Mihalick, 50, Lower Main
Road, Dallas, narrowly escaped a
plunge ‘into Huntsville Reservoir
Monday evening when, his car failed
to make the turn on the far side
of the dam.
Mihalick was driving toward Leh-
man when the car, a '38 blue two-
door Nash, left the road to crash
over the bank. The accident was
apparently caused by some mechan-
ical #defect in the brakes.
Ann Mihalick, the driver's sister,
drove along the road a few minutes
later and recognized her brother’s
car on the edge of the reservoir. She
stopped, but could not find her
brother. Mr. Mihalick was later dis-
covered walking along the road to-
ward Lehman,
Both Mihalick and the car es-
caped the accident unhurt.

same time, they have generously
helped both of our organizations in
their Youth project.”
“We know, too, that these kiddies
who will attend the circus free join
in offering hearty thanks. On the
basis of results to date, it appears
we will attain our goal of providing
enough free tickets so that no needy
boys or girls will miss the circus,
with its 40 tons of elephants, per-
formers from 18 countries, dancing
horses, clowns and all of sawdust-
land’s elements.”

Observance of a dozen common-
sense rules of water safety would
prevent most of the drownings and
near-drownings which annually mar
the swimming season, John 'E.
Donovan, Acting Secretary of the
Back Mountain YMCA declared to-
day. Everybody, young and old,
should learn to swim, and that
way a goodly mumber of water ac-
cidents would never happen, Mr.
Donovan said.
“Many people take all health pre-
cautions they can, practice safe auto
driving habits, look up and down
before crossing a street, but for
some reason or another just mever
get around to learning to swim,” he
explained. “Most adults won’t admit
they can’t swim, and feel it is be-
neath their dignity to start as be-
ginners when they have achieved
success in ‘the business or profes-
sional worlds.” The result, Mr.
Donovan said, is ‘that adults may get
into ‘trouble in the water because
they feel it is a sign of weakness to
admit they cannot swim. ‘Parents,
especially fathers, are the worst of-
fenders among: non-swimmers,” he
added. “To keep their children from
knowing they can’t swim, fathers
often take foolish chances. It is
just as important for parents to
know how to swim as it is for
their children. If parents and child-
ren learn at the same time, the
swimming lessons ican become a fam-
ily project. Based on the YM.CA's
67 ‘years’ experience in teaching
swimming and water safety, Mr.
Donovan listed 12 rules to help
youngsters and adults of the Back
Mountain area enjoy a safe, and
happy swimming season:
1. Learn to swim. That's the first
and most important rule. If you
can’t swim, the only sensible thing
to do is stay out of the water, and
out of small boats as well.
2. Swim only at properly protec-
ted beaches and pools. That way
help can reach you quickly should
you get into trouble.
3. Obey all warning signs. They
are put there for your protection.
4. Don’t show off, and don’t take
dares. Both these human failings
have caused many accidents. Also,
know your limitations and don’t

try to exceed them.
5. Never dive into unknown
waters. You might strike rocks, or
become entangled in debris. Don’t
swim where there are ‘heavy
growths of weeds.
6. When holding races, always
swim towards the shore, not away
from it. Then you won't find your-
self exhausted and far from land.
7. Never swim alone. Always have
another swimmer with you.
8. If you are over-heated, cool
off before going into the water.
Also, don’t try strenuous swimming
after heavy meals.
9. Should you get into trouble,
keep calm. Cling to an overturned
boat or other floating objects. Com-
paratively small things will support
you, if you keep calm and take ad-
vantage of your body's natural
buoyancy. -
10. Don’t attempt a rescue in the
water unless you are a strong swim-
mer, skilled in life saving. Stay out
of the water if possible, anid try to
reach the person in trouble with a
| pole, rope, or clothing. You may be
able to push or throw something
buoyant to him.
11. If you are sensitive to cold,
and many people are, swim for
short periods if the water is chilly.
If it is cold, stay out enitirely.
12. In electrical storms, avoid
swimming, open boats, beaches,
fields or trees. Safest places dre
houses, automobiles or beneath
steel bridges. If you are trapped in
the open, lie flat on the ground.
