each day, and all minor scratches and
injuries are checked very carefully.
A scratch, blister or minor injury at
this stage of training may develop in-
to’something serious.

At the end of ten days the men
should be in condition for scrimmage,
and from this time on a certain a-
mount of scrimmage is included in
each day’s program. These scrimmage
sessions never last more than one
half hour for any individual man, and
not more than three days a week. We
try to do our real hard work before
the first game.

Cold Sores on the Lips

For cold sores and fever blisters on
the lips just apply Athletic Tr. Ben-
zoin Comp. Several applications will
clean up the worst cases in a very
short time.

This method of treatment is used
in many hospitals.

——?—

In cases of shock—when the athlete
is lying on the ground—pour a little
liquid off of your bottle of Smelling
Salts onto a handkerchief (smell it
yourself to find out the strength)
then hold it over the nose of the in-
jured player, allowing him to breath
the fumes at about every third breath
Feed it to him steadily—do not crowd
the treatment.

Preliminary Football
Workouts

By Ed Walker, Athletic Director
and Head Fcotball Coach University
of Mississippi.

 

We use the standard setting up ex-
ercises for building up the legs and
upper body. Squatting exercises, roli-
ing exercises, kicking exercises, bend-
ing, dipping, duckwalking and push-
ups. A little later on we have live
tackling, with the man being tackled
standing still, and the tackler charg-
ing two steps for the tackle. Also we
charge forward three steps throwing
a rolling block both to the right and
to the left,

“Two on one” practice is used by

.

 

the ends and halfbacks on the tackles,
the same being used on the guards on
each other. As we progress toward
scrimmage we have live blocking and
tackling. That is—actual tackling of
the ball carriers who have a limited

ace in which to run. We have live
blocking in this same limited space.
We find that by using the limited
running space that we are assured
plenty of actual contact between
tackler and runner, and runner and
blocker. We use the dummies to il-
lustrate the proper technique in
tackling and blocking but find that
the live blocking and tackling is the
only way to prepare for actual game
play.

A Few Suggestions from Dr.

Bohler, Team Physician,

University of Mississippi

We always use Benzoin before tap-
fe aaocecse It’s use prevents tape
ras

We always “pack” shin splints with
Analgesic Balm because it keeps sus-
tained warmth for many hours.

We also get good results from this
Analgesic pack on, “stone bruise” or
heel injuries.

Before the game we do not feed a
ncon meal but give a heavy break-
fast of energy producing foods but
no heat producing foods. With this
ay breakfast we allow lots of cof-
ee.

For the athlete who prefers to do
ali of his conditioning on the training
table, when there is nothing wrong
with him, we apply Athletic Red Hot
Ointment freely in places where it
will be most annoying. This is our
“bums rush.”

i

The initial care given to an injury
may determine the entire outcome.
Immediate treatment properly ex-
ecuted—means early recovery. If the
first treatment is thorough the rest
of the treatment is simplified.
