Published by the Cramer Chemical Co. _Gardner, Kansas varsity crews have come in fifth once, third once, second four times, and first twice. In 1933 there was no Poughkeepsie race, but Al had his second best crew that year (his best, of course, was the 1936-37 Pough- keepsie Championship shell and Olym- pic victors.) In ’33 they won the National 2000 meter race at Long Beach, California. In 1936, the var- sity crew won at Poughkeepsie, and at the Olympic trials at Lake Car- negie, and at the Olympic games in Berlin to become the world’s champ- ship eight-oared crew; they re- peated their Poughkeepsie victory ~ last month, five of them finishing their college rowing with the great finale of setting a new varsity course record at Poughkeepsie. Washington crewmen are kept in condition by rowing long distances on Lake Washington and by super- vised training at the Varsity Boat Club, a crewmen’s cooperative resi- dence hall. Their style is taught in the Frosh year when they serve their apprenticeship as a galley slave in Old Nero, a barge training boat in- vented by Hiram Conibear, “the Rockne of Rowing.” Old Nero has a /gangway down the center for the coach to ride beside the slaves cor- recting their mistakes and teaching them the Washington rowing style. Old Nero seats sixteen, the equival- ent of two eight-oared shells, eight on each side. Ulbrickson’s greatest record, of course, was sweeping the Hudson two years in a row (1936-37) winning first in the Varsity, Jayvee, and Frosh races. —o— A Method of Relaxing Thigh Muscles While working in the training rooms at the Kansas and Drake Re- lays, we found a number of our ath- letes whose leg muscles were tight and_knotted—especially in the back of the upper leg. All.that, was needed to relieve this condition was a little manipulation. With the athlete on the rubbing ta- ble lying face up, grasp the ankle with one hand and the knee with the other—bend the leg at the knee and push the knee across the body gently, continuing in a circular motion up toward the face, then to the outside of the body. Now while the thigh is extended in this perpendicular posi- tion, straighten out the leg. Three or four rounds of this easy manipulation seems to relax all of the upper leg muscles leaving them loose and pliable and ready for a rub . down with Athletic Liniment or Anal- gesic Balm. — Athletic Inhalant, used in the nose, promotes easier breathing and helps prevent irritations. On the lips it will prevent drying and cracking from wind burns, Special School Price, Equipped This is the New Chief Kit.
