A fair-sired crowd was present at
Calf Pasture Beach yesterday after-
noon and evening. The real season
seems to hold off until warm’r
weather and the hat of July. vaca-
tion time. Hundreds who drive to
the park hesitate when it comes to
actually taking a plunge in the wa-
ter. The inevitable question: "Are
you going in swimming?" is gener-
ally answered with a laconic. "Too
coldl" .
That the spot is popular is over-
whelmingly proved by the small arm-
ies who flocked there last week. It
only awaits the return of real hot
weather to fill the water with bath-
ers. At present. attention is evenly
divided between swimming. playing
leap-frog. which is rapidly becoming
a feminine sport. and baseball. Four
or five hundred machines parked
along the beach last evening.
The Red Cross Life Saving Corps
is experimenting with canoes instead
of their row-boats. endoavoring to
discover whether it will be practica-

with their regular boat. While the
canoe will provide faster means of
reaching spots of accident. the row-
boat is much the more stable craft
. for cruising close to shore. where no
great distance must be traversed ill
