of ground into perfect condition for growing Many of these pioneers on the outskirts of Ontarios great est city joined together to buy machinery irrigation euuipment and insecticides starting co

It is 15 miles or sink said Art lJohnston as he climbed from the choppy waters of Kenipenfeldt Bay fresh fmm IWnlll swim Art was referring to the gruel ling CNE swim scheduled for Fri day September in the chilly waters of Lake Ontario The huge strongarmed Ilarrie natator whose popularity around the water front can be ascertained by glimpse at the large crowd which packs the dock during practice sessions Last year Johnston finished in the Illmile test ofstaminabut this year the swim has been increased to 15 miles and he feels the greater distance will aid his Chances of copping slice of the big money Art started training in earnest for this test on June 11 and has not missed day since On every session Art is accompanied by Cliff Barnes who steers the course from light rowboat To swim is about the only way Art can train for this event and already be has completed over 70 practice miles Ile hopes to reach 150 before the contest Johnston is perhaps better known for his feats iii the Barrie Regat ta The last four years has seen him walk away with the onemile swim He did not competdin it this year as he didnt want to change his present pace and he felt that the younger fishes of the bay should be given chance to obtain victory Last year Art had precision 54 to 56 stroke in the crawl but due to the lengthening of the dist ance he has lowered it to 5254 He gets mostof his drive from his arms powerful pair of wind mills for the noted marathonswim mers to tangle with Art ls not times for distance swims would not reveal this fact Art is carrying Barrics hopes in to the CNE and
