HELP NEEDED - TYPING -World Championships
At the recent X FINA Masters World Championships, the Local 
Organizing Committee had a booth there to talk about the XI FINA 
Masters World Championships. We had pictures there, and information 
about Stanford and Northern California.

If the swimmers, were interested we asked them to fill out a card, 
asking them for their name, address,and e-mail address. We we got 
cards that when stacked on top of each other, was 18 inches high 
(most of the cards have name on both sides.

Now we have to put all that information in a computer files.We need 
YOUR help. We need you to type names into an Excel file. We would 
give you about 1.5 to 2.5 inches of cards. It might take about an 
hour or two to type the names, and addresses.

If you can help, please email Laura Collette at 
laura at 2006FINAMasters.org She would love to give you some names to 
type in.

RULES CHANGE ON PACING
Effective June 5, 2004, USA Swimming amended their rules in order to 
align them with FINA with respect to the use of equipment that can 
convey pacing information to a competitor.  The change is in response 
to the availability of individual radio receivers that can transmit 
information to a swimmer from a coach or other person.

USMS will follow the interpretation of USA Swimming that indicates 
that pacing devices including tempo training devices and radio 
transmitters that allow instructions to be passed to the swimmer are 
forbidden.
