During the past seasons, hundreds of youngsters have been taught to swim at the Clinton and Lydia Pools. Others have qualified for Red Cross life saving awards. Courses will be available again this year under Clinton Athletic Director, "Chuck" Leatherwood. for qualified swimmers interested in obtaining life guard awards. "It is the sincere desire of Clinton and Lydia Mills to teach every child in our communities to swim." says Claude Crocker. Industrial Relations Director of the Mills. "The same is true for any adults who cannot swim. Becoming an adept swimmer may at some time result in saving a life, perhaps your own. Certainly no fisherman or woman, and we have many at both mills, should refuse this wonderful opportunity to learn to swim." Pools will be open throughout the week except Wednesday nights and Sunday. Daily pool hours are from 9 to 12, to 6. and 7 to 9. Admission is 9 cents for children and 30 cents for adults. Season tickets may bo purchased for $3.50 for children and $6.00 for adults from the life guards.
