Original Toronto Star caption: Tobblers get in the swim. Oshawa youngsters can learn to swim early; thanks to the recreation department's two swimming pools and its programs for mothers and children. The toddlers; aged 18 months to 21/2 years; sit on the side of the pool with mothers in the water; ready to reassure them-or to splash them gently.
