Naval Students Climb Ropes to Acquire Agility
extracted text
Cadets training for entrance into the Italian navy take a complete and rigorous course in gymnastics on land before they begin climbing the masts of any vessel. As a preparatory feat for shinning up a mast, the student sailors go through a series of rope-climbing exercises in an ( open-air gymnasium. The ropes are attached to a lofty framework, and the students are required to make the ascent in approved manner and in a limited time.
