Description
A demonstration was held yesterday at the St. George s Swimming Bath - Bucking ham Palace Road of the new “unsinkable” swimming suit... It was worn by 24 year old JEAN MANCHESTER of More came. She was thrown into the water - pushed off the edge tied into a sack - and they even tried tying a brick to her and pushing her into the water - but be swim- suit would not let her sink… The swimsuit is made by Mr. Mark Shaw of More came - who invented it 18 months ago and as the reaction in this country was “rather slow” he took it to America and Canada where it is now being used in water treatment of policies. The secret of the floating is th panels in front of the suit of “breathing fabric” that trapped the air and guaranteed to surface the wearer in four seconds… KEYSTONE PHOTO SHOWS:- JEAN MANCHESTER wears the Unsinkable swim - suit - at the baths during the demonstration.
