A study:: " done by the Red Cross
in :Nova. Scotia. on the 82 drownings that
occurred in that province in 1961. The
findings of . the udy show that . out of 82.
victims, 68 were individuals who, for some
reason, '' entered the. water unexpectedly.
They' fell from boats, river banks, wharves,
• jetties and in a few instances, . through the

show' the same results. Most drownings oc-
cur from unexpected ;falls into the water.
One of the: most significant findings
of the Nova • Scotia' study ,is that almost
all .cif the 68 victims were. within a few
feet ':of some sort: of ' safety.
Even ..more significant • is the evidence
that 'in :alinbst e ery instance, no call for
help was made.
This is somewhat of a 'surprise, for
almost. everyone assumes that when, aper-
son is in: trouble,he naturally calls for
help. Apparently,this isn't alays the case.
A few reasons . re; "suggested.' "':�•
First,,:, the individual may be in a ..state:
of panic. Second, he may not be aware
of the seriousness ' of the sittion..Third,
he. may b a too; embarrassed to call for

preventive as, water safety knowledge In--

courses may eventually •help.. individuals.
•
•
•
This last reason may' be' the result
of self -pride and independence. Some
people feel.it's them' to call for
help or won't admit to:themselves that.
they . need ' help. �t might be.that: the indi-
vidual doesn't want to' subject `'himself to
possible ,ridicule. ' • Or it "could be•'. that ' th e
average person ,doesn't know' ' how to call
for ' help. How, any of us. -have actually'
practised calling for'help?
As a resultof the study,- the Red
Cross conducted •a personal' survival .ex-
periment and found nd that. an . individual re-
quires a' great deal of effort to overcome
embarrassment calling for help, even
in a `pool -side situation. If

tal:.'situation,. sur ' ly it's, bound to play some

ins every risky ,situation. •
So,- when in 'trouble, in the water, use
your. voice. If ' you're in an accident with
a, companion or a ;group, call' for help in
unison. It helps. It may also help to curb
the dreadful drowning toll ' each summer,
which in Ontario alone mounted to almost
300 lives last year.
