OUR COVER: Way down deep to escape the summer heat.

THIS MONTH'S HIGHLIGHTS: Deciding to get in the swim of things, photographer Flip Schulke took his camera underwater and came up with the exciting skin-diving scene on our cover. While he was busy snapping away, a group of "water rats" was splashing it up nearby, a sight which inspired Green Bar Bill to make Have Fun in the Water his August topic -- so there are games galore on page 24 . . . After reading that you'll want to dive right in to Stella Rapaport's The Bear -- Ship of Many Lives, the thrilling true tale of a 19th Century American sailing vessel that made the first naval capture of World War IL ... And your interest will be captured by The Bank Roll Went That-A-Way, by James W. English, an adventure-packed story of how the Tailbone Patrol got caught between desperate bank robbers and a posse of relentless lawmen ... Then you'll need a few laughs to relax you, and Durward Allen has just what the doctor ordered -- a look at nature's oldest living garbage collector, The Lunkhead of the Ages (that's him hanging above by his tail) . . . By this time you're ready to get back in the water, so two fellows named Walt Babson and William Hillcourt take you there with, respectively, To Hatteras by Sail Canoe and Rescue Breathing . . . However, a couple of other authors made up their minds to stay dry by going below the earth. Edward Hymoff burrowed into the facts of America's Amazing Underground City, while Evelyn Nadel, in On Top of the Past, followed the remarkable activities of a group of young California scientists who literally are digging up millions of years of history every year . . . If you're ready now to return to today and the automobile market, Arthur Whitman's Car Talk: Dollars and Sense could very well convince you to wear out shoe leather -- or even get a horse! -- rather than pour a stream of cash into buying a "cheap" heap. Happy reading!
