For sheer perser- verance and desire to learn, this is the most demand- ing of the waterfront programs. A minimum of forty hours must be put in by each boy before he is ready for examination. Everyone, of course, is interested in the preservation of his own life. He must possess the knowledge and skill to protect himself and others on the water. To gain these fundamental objectives, another comprehensive life-saving course was given at Ken- Mont in 1967. Thirteen boys gave up their optional periods ahnos-t every afternoon to come to the waterfront to learn Junior Life Saving. They began learning personal safety in the water, through such skills as treading water, cramp releases, disrobing, and small craft safety. The link in the chain of water safety covers elementary assists in which the rescuer never swims to the victim.

Finally, of course, the boys were instructed in rescue skills necessary to assist a drowning victim far from shore. They began by learning approach strokes and then several carries. In many cases the victim would struggle causing the rescuer to use breaks and releases of various holds. Naturally, no report on the Life Saving Course would be complete without mentioning the boys who took the training. From the Hawk division were MITCH HOROWITZ, JON DAVIDSON, ERIC DONNENFELD, BERT FICHMAN, MITCH LAWRENCE, MIKE MANASEVIT, MIKE WEISBEIN, and MARK BARNETT. From the Condor Division there was BRAD BRONK, ARNY ROWAN, and GARY SCHAEFFER. These boys certainly showed what Commodore Long- fellow, the founder of Red Cross Life Saving, had in mind when he said Every person should be a swimmer, and every swimmer a Life Saver.

l l . i I AN IDEAL SAILING DAY ON NORTH SPECTACLE LAKE SAILING This year proved to be the most productive ever at the Ken-Mont sail dock. From dawn to dusk the sail area was bristling with activity. Again, the program was under the direction of Tom O'Rourke, of the University of Illinois faculty, assisted by Randy Nixon. Our iieet included six Dyer Dhows, three Cape Cod Dinghies, and six of the ever popular Sailtish. Additionally, a motorboat was utilized to augment the instructional phase of the program which placed primary emphasis on safety and seamanship. In order to qualify to skipper a sailfish, campers were required to exhibit proficiency in a three-part test. The first part consisted of learning the proper sailboat nomenclature Ctiller, rudder, boom and so forthj, rig the boats, and perform such feats as raising the sail, placing the tiller and rudder, and positioning the center-board and cleet properly. Las-tly, campers were required to demonstrate and have an understanding of such terms as ucoming abouti' and jibbing . Before long, boys with little or no previous experience exhibited a Hnatural born sailing ability. Several new innovations helped to make this year unique. For one, a regulation triangular sailing course was set up for advanced instruction. An- other Ken-Mont iirst was registered when We par- ticipated in an intercamp sailing meet. Also, a Red Cross sailing course formed an integral aspect of this yearis program. Throughout the summer, many boys qualified for the Red Cross sailing card which enabled them to wear an insignia signifying their accomplishments.
