" 1 Twenty -Seven Men Gu?.rd Eight Miles of i Beach I .. . 1 The record made by the Ocean City . Beach Patrol for the season of 1921 was 100 per cent. That the guards . r were busy is shown by the report that . : 166 rescues were made. Several of r the rescues were. of the nip-and-tuck .. variety. One rescue in particular that . took place at Tenjh street when a c ■ bather by the name of Thompson was c swept o'nc-half mile out to sea. Was: . spectacular, and called forth the j admiration of the Boardwalk crowds who witnessed it. When it is taken into consideration . that 27 men guarded 8 miles of beach e j and handled at least 70,000 liathers k "without a fatality, Ocean City has u y right to feel proud of Captain Jack it Jcrnec and his men. •• The guards at Park Place anil at e Tenth street were kept busiest. Beach i [. • statistics for the season show that H 1.142 cases were trc|^gd av the hospi,f tal tents by the beach surgeon. Dr. t WiUets P. Haines, und the first-aid; men. A tabulated report follows:; ! 164 rescues; 361 cut feet; 41 'dis- . I located fingers; 196 cut knees and | legs; 17 cramps in stomach; 9 bruised „ i:i tiie stomach; 14 bruised on the f body; 6 light sun strokes; 163 infected g blisters ; 102 indigestion; 14 heart e j cases; 54 cut heads. ■ One case was token to the Atlantic ' s City Hospital. Mayor Joseph G. Champion ex-' pressed himself as highly pleased with the work of the Beach Patrol for the season. "They made a wonderful n record," he said, "and many bathers U can thank the high standard of effi- >. j clency the men maintained in getting ir them out of 'tight places. That they s , came through with a perfect score, considering the crowds they handled, I is a record that I am proud of. TGuard* will he kept on the licach us i long as the bathing continues to be so | popular us it now is." The type • of men on the Beach Patrol is best exemplified in Guard Behan, who brought to Ocean City the J first trophy for the bent built man in the life guards' contest of the Atlantic City Pageant of September 7th and 8th. m Captain Jack Jcrr.cc, commenting 'on the season's work, said: "Each i oar we learn now thing,: jn beaeh~~ olHdency and our men work them out fcr the safety of those they are paid CLOSED COTTAGE I Mrs. Herbert Archdeacon EntertainB ed n Number of Friends Here H Mrs. Herbert Arthilcacen, of -LnnsI downe, dosed her cottage . with a I very enjoyable week-end house partj I having as hot** guests the following: H Mr. and >,rs.

SOME' FISHERMAN Joal Kobinsoo, of 3034 West avenue, this city, was persuadede a fewdays ago to go on a fishing trip in | the bay. His friends tried to get him to use a roil and reel, but he insisted on the old-fashioned, reliable hand line. After a short time Joal . proved to them that he was a real : i fisherman by pulling in u 4-pound weak fish. Now all that he talks of, is his big catch and a new. Ford ; which he has just purchaser -from | Edw. G. Kurtx, the plealer of this section. The party caught many good-sized fish. VISIT POSTPONED The visitation of Atlantic City Forest of Tall Cedars to Ofciut City that was to have taken place last night has been postponed for two weeks, owing, to the Ocean City ' members not being able to make arrangements for the former date. y
