I don't know how happy we'd be today garbed in the vintage swimsuits on parade at the South County Museum in Narragansett last Sunday. But the volunteer models paid no mind, making the most of each moment, prancing in and twirling around to show the long and short of beach fashion highlighting the years 1888 to 1925. The collection is the-pride of Carl Slater, a retired profes­ sor of health and physical education at URI, who com­ mented on the apparel. During his ten-year post as director of Safety Services for the Providence Red Cross, Professor Slater presented safety shows to schools and camps. When over, he'd ask his audiences if anyone owned old-fashioned swimwear they no longer wanted. Those positive responses were viewed by delighted on­ lookers at the South County Museum, the newly announced benefactor of Professor Slater's collection. One onlooker, Nina Leboff, said at the show's end, "It's quite a change from those days to now. It's hard to visualize that people swam in that type of outfit.
