Firm-Grip was tried out during the football season of ’35, both by col- lege and high school teams. In one college game where the field was covered with mud and wat- er, both teams used Firm-Grip and ‘there were no fumbles in the -: first quarter. In the second quarter there were two fumbles, both occuring. when tackles were made, Playing con- ditions. in this instance, were as bad as it is possible to imagine. Firm-Grip should be a splendid pro- duct for basketball. Coaches who have tried it say it lessens fumbling and makes intricate plays click with more precision. One coach explained that the secure feeling which it gives helps overcome nervousness or stage fright. Directions are simple. For basket- ball, just apply a small amount to the fingertips and rub them together un- til it is spread evenly. For football—apply a heavier coat- ing to the hands, rubbing them to- gether until the paste spreads even- ly. After this has been on for a few minutes, apply a light second coat in the same manner.
