The attendance figures during the open hour-5 to 6 p.m.-for men st Robinson pool have been kept by the life guard, Dan Westerman, freshman in physical education.
During the month of May a total of 229 "man-hours" are represented in the figures. Attendance was greatest during the last two weeks, the largest numbers being in the low twenties. The largest number of men in the pool, 23, was on May 23. The day before 22 swimmers were counted and on the last day of the month there were 20 in the pool.
On only one day did nobody show um that was the 8th, VE-day.
R. R. Strait, physical education instructor in charge of the pool, said today that the depressing weather has been the greatest factor in keeping the attendance as low as it has been.
"As soon as it warms up more students will feel like availing themselves of the opportunity," he commented. "We intend to keep the hour open for all University men, and expect a greater attendance later on." Missouri Weightmen Repeat

THINK---
(continued from page one)
The weekend before VE-Day was one of the warmest of the season with the temperature in the 80's, but VE-Day was cloudy and cool as it had been predicted by official observers.
One of the biggest mistakes of the season was on May 12, when a "pleasant weekend with no rain" was reported. Monday, the Blue and Republican rivers were at flood stage and the Kaw river had risen because of heavy weekend rains.
Floods were predicted on May 15 and the Kaw river was expected to overflow when rains came down as predicted. The forecast for May 16 said that the rains were about over. The next day was clear. On May 18 it rained. Rain has been falling intermittently since.
Official forecasters don't always predict the weather correctly but they do it more often than not. If you think it's easy just try to answer this question, "Do you think it will rain tomorrow?"

Chris Thomas, Phi Gam, forfeited to Marsh Fryar, Phi Psi, in a qualifying round match.
