Article describes the seawall and groin system in use at Winthrop, 

 Mass. since 1915. In 1938, neither the timber groins nor the concrete 

 seawall had shown signs of deterioration. Other structures added to 

 the original system since 1915 are described and the estimate advanced 

 that 160,000 sq. ft. of beach area has been added since the construction 

 of protective structures.

Writer believes there is insufficient information with respect to 

 the relation of groin length to width and spacing that will lead to 

 permanency of protection, but he believes that in general, groins should 

 be spaced closer than is the general practice. A Florida example is 

 given.
