Pool Manager Swims Channel CALAIS, France Ufi "Get in (he water and have a go or come home and face the music." That, in effect, is what the peo ple of Bloxwich, England, told swimming pool manager Bit! Pick eting recently on the Dover side of the English Channel. So he did. The next morning 14 hours and 6 minutes later he walked out of the water on the French side. Big Bill, a 32-year-old, 252-pound-er, said he was making the swim "simply to satisfy the people of Bloxwich." His hometown raised 350 pounds ($980) for his expenses.

Dr. George It. Price, research associate at the university, writes in Science Magazine that he will doubt their claims until there has been "just one experiment that does not have to be accepted on a basis of faith in human honestv." Writing in the publication of the American Assn. for the Advance ment of Science, Price said the only acceptable explanations for experiments in psychic phenomena are "clerical and stitistical errors and unintentional use of sensory cl"es" or "deliberate fraud or mildly abnormal mental conditions."
