Question

ii) what factors led douglas to decide in favour of y.M.C.A. Pool?

Answer 1

Douglas's mother recommended that he should learn swimming at Y.M.C.A swimming pool because it was considered safe for learning swimming. It was built in such a way that it helped in avoiding exposure to grave risk. It was two or three feet deep at the shallow end and nine feet deep at the other end. The slope too was gradual. Hence Douglas decided in favour of Y.M.C.A pool.

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

$\rm\huge\underline{Answer}$

The Y.M.C.A. pool was safe. It was only two to three feet deep at the shallow end. It was nine feet deep at the other. Moreover, the drop was gradual. The Yakima River was treacherous and had drowned many. So, he decided in favour of the Y.M.C.A. pool.
