KALNINS ON.. Clndy&Marîlyn,- Aftcr twenty long years, thc great mnarathon swirns a- cross Lake Ontario are back in force. l also inote that onlly ladies (or should 1 say just younig girls) are entering the miarathon swimns. Further, they are at a tender age - muchi too younig for such a feat. Neverthecless, these young swimmrrers have proven their physical endurance and above aIl - their deterinîination to tackle the choppy waters at almost any price. The miedia gave full support, reporting every possible detailthroughout these marathon hauls. 1 bet there was no question left unasked and unanswered. The interviews were mile-long and often boring. For two days almost non- stop the CFRB radio blared out the swim results. At times the whole thing sounded ike a comic opera. It appears that 1 might become the first newspaperman to voice disapproval of such> long-distance swimns on Lake Ontario. And, 1'11 tell you why.- For anyone to swim such a distance is sheer murder. There is no doubt in.my mînd that one must exert himself (or herself) physical- ly to the highest point in human endurance. Then, the mental strain on top of that. When they finish the course the contestants have to be carried away on stretchers. They are about to collapse in the ai-ms of cheering fans. How can one admire such strain, exhaustion and fatigue? 'How, can one cheer when a person is about to faîl apart? Worse, ail this is done in the name of good sportsmanship. 1 suspect that marathon swims are carried out for only one reason - money and glory. Mind you, there is nothing wrong with gaining money for your own personal achievements, but at what price? 1 feel that such taxing swims can leave permanent damage both physically and mentally regardless of age and physical stamina. It could take as long as twenty years to feel the consequences. A number of medical doctors have told me of the pos- sible dangers involved. They also agree that abnormat strain, mental or physical, is harmful to any human being Then. why are we trying to kilI ourselves? The question miay neyer be answered as long as people are willing to risk their lives for mioney and publicity. Since Marilyn Bell made lier big splasli twenty years ago. the marathon swimi idea lias gained a new miomentum-. Thanks to Cîindy and Anigie. But, I feel rather sorry for tilese young gaIs _who -weat fîhrough sime agotiing monrits trying ïd 'reacif THAT 'h-ýlore opposite CNE groutids. Whien Cindy Nichiols came out of the waters, one reporter asked lîer: "*Wooild you do this again?* 'Fli answer was NO which is, perhaps. indicative of the s%%iitfimers own feelings about those killer marathîon swinis on, Lake Ontario.
