Red Cross Issues Swimming Warning The danger of drowning from holding the breath too long in underwater swimming or in underwater games that children play, is being emphasized this summer by the Water Safety Department of Pittsburgh Red Cross. Red Cross advises that parents of youngsters who swim, and all swimmers, should understand and help spread information about what happens when the breath is held too long under water. In order to stay under water for any length of time, a swimmer must conserve his breath by holding it, but to do this he must be conscious. Carbon dioxide builds up in the blood stream and brain when the breath is held, and too much of it leads to unconciousness. If an underwater swimmer becomes unconscious, he starts breathing automatically, and unless help is at hand to get him into the air very quickly, death may result. Many drownings could be avoided if these facts were understood. Red Cross Water Safety Service urges parents to teach these facts to their children and warns swimmers of all ages to be aware of them.

His works are now gracing churches, museums, parks, etc. in some of the largest cities of The United States.
