To the Editor:
I visited good friends in Surf City last month. On Tuesday, Aug. 21, my friend and I went to one of your fine beaches for a swim. Being from Montana, I couldn’t return home without a dip in the ocean.
The sea was rough, but I plunged in anyway. Unfortunately, as I returned to shore, I became faint and actually passed out. Within seconds, the lifeguard was at my side and had me seated upright. A visitor hurried over and helped her get me up to the sand.
