Completing the ‘shower I stepped through the swinging door to the swimming pool. It was dark and not another soul was there. Without wait- ing to turn on the light, I stepped briskly on the diving board and took a jump. But I did not hit the water. What T hit was the concrete floor of the swimming tank. Some one had done me dirt, unintentionally. The caretaker had drained the tank during the afternoon to scrub the pool the next morning.
