Skin diving beats everythinz
as far as the club memb: :
concerned. They point out it
is a sport you can enjoy 12
months of the year. The mem
ber does not feel the cold even
in the winter because even the
water that gets inside the skin
diving suit becomes heated hy
the body and remains comfort
ably warm throughout the op.
eration. |

Club members plan to partic-|
ipate in both skin diving and

Ucipant uses aqua lungs filled

Exploring the ocean floor

are all part of the interesting
events slated for the members. |
