Mid-Winter Swimmers, In spite of the inclement weather of late, two residents of Long Beach, Russell, still go down ror their regular swims. “We certainly don’t stay in long.” said one of them, “but the water isn't so terribly cold. We are just not as young as we used to be.” These two hardy specimens are men well beyond the prime of life in age, if not in spirit.
