Athletes Must Perspire Freely

Endurance. on the other hand, does
not require strenuous exercise so
much as continued activity And when
say this. remember that am writing
not so much for the athlete who is in
training as for the average young man
who needs exercise for the sake of
better health. Endurance means
health. And it is the continuous or
repeated eXertion that counts. some
thing of a kind that will make you
perspire.
Precipitation and endurance and also
perspiration and health have a great
deal to do with each other. The work
must be sufficiently continuous to keep
the works" at work for a period of
time. even though it does not call for
much strength.
If you want to have a good, healthy
liver, this is the way to get IL, along
with wholesome food. and if you want
a good, healthy liver. this is the way to
be il. or course, you can't take too
stiff an exercise at first and continue
it very long, but the more time you
spend in some continuous exertion that
is not too energetic, the better will be
your endurance and your health.
Don't think that five or ten minutes
of exercise each day. no matter how
good it is, will give you the same bene-
fit that you will get from an hour at
handbalL The ten minutes of bedroom
in the morning will be
beneficial, but IL is not enough.

7 that the entire internal machinery gets
A pretty thorough workout, and becomes
stronger because OF the exercise, unless
( it is overdone.
/ AT the same time, easy running does
not eXpend much nervous energy. 1t is
] like walking in this respect. for II ena-
ply siological results with the least cost
! in nervous expenditure. But don't run
too fast. Long distance races are of
course to be taken up only by those
specially trained and fitted for them.
Rope skipping is a very satisfactory
exercise for developing endurance, but
It is much like running in its use of the
legs and in its effects. Many boxers
do rope skipping when in training. I
have personally done very little Of it,
but ! can recommend il nevertheless.
The same applies TO vigorous fancy
dances, like the Russian dances and
some stage dances. 4 fast game of ten
mis-. like handbaIl, would be helpful
while basket ball or hockey would be
valuable because of the fast and con-
tinuous play. Rowing and distance
swimming are both effective in building
endurance.
1t may be noted that among those de-
voted to these and similar games in
which endurance is a factor, you will
usually find a perfect physical develop
ment. but 1t is always the smooth and
natural type.
The conspicuous display of bulging
muscles that you find in the professional

KELCHNER Wins GAME
IN Big POOL TOURNEY
Defeats Purcell, 100 to 81. in Great
Contest at Royal Parlors-Shows
Phenomenal Spurt.

Another heart-rendering finish was
dished up in the pocket-billiard match
for the District championship at the
Royal Billiard Parlors last night. when
George Kelchner beat Thomas r. Pur-
cell, 100 to 81. The loser made a phe-
nomenal squirt near the close Of the
game, after his opponent had scored
95, coming up from Il. It was then
that Kelchner missed hard shot,
breaking the bunch. and leaving an
open frame for the weaker player to
pick off.
Unfortunately for him, the balls had
to be racked in the middle of his run.
and he had uphill work with his
string, but by dint of careful work,
pulling of one combination shot that
was really hair-raising, he pulled
through to SO. A subsequent miss by
Kelchner and a run Of finished Pur-
cell, however, as the winner then had
only two to go out, which he did
easily. Purcelrs fight against great
odds was a plucky aftair, and showed
excellent grit.
The game was slow. with many
misses, considerable scratching. and
frequent resort TO safety play. Kelch-
ner was hardly up to form, and was
behind for part of the game in the
early stages and except in the last
quarter was working his best.
Last nights victory ties Kelchner
with Wallace for second place in the
tournament, with Bartelmes in the lead
with a clean score of five games won
and none lost. Monday night Kelch-
ner and Swan will play, and the battle
royal between Wallace and Bartelmes
Is scheduled for Wednesday evening.

Father Completes with His Son.

Endurance work is always more bencf-

That is why cross-country running is
more healthful than sprinting. for in

ton that will he vigorous for years if one
takes care Of it.
In England. where distance running has
been the practice ever since l don't know
when. you will sometimes see a gray
haired, gray-whiskercd man competing in
the same crOss-country race with his
sons. OF course. you need both strength
and endurance. but if 1t is a question of
working for great strength or working
for good endurance, then work for endur-
anCe.
i is true rs a general proposition that
when YOU put your muscles TO work you
are also exercising the internal organs,
but nevertheless the kind of exercise spe-
cially useful for cultivating endurance is
important. You can enlarge your mus
cles and build immediate strength by just
A time without even making yourself
pun. and with very little effect in pro-
noting endurance or strengthening the
internal organs.
The professional strong man" of the
type of Louis CyT. who has the muscles
for lifting great weights and is at the
same time exceedingly fat, is an example
OF this possibility. And the muscular
marvel" suffering from dyspepsia is an
other example.

Carroll Veterans
In Seagate Race
Dan Healy and Mike Lynch
to Enter Twenty-mile
Run In Brooklyn.
BEST AT LONG DISTANCE

The team from Carroll institute. which
will probably go to New York City tC
take part in the Bronx Church Hous,
five-mile race on George Washington:
Birthday, will be composed of Capt
Healy. Lynch, Williams. Mathews, Blu
mer. Covert and Schmidt.
In event of the team, for any unfore,
seen reason, being unable TO go as q
whole. Capt HeaIy and Lynch will go
anyway. and will enter the annua
twenty-mile Marathon over the Seagirt
course on the same date.
Healy and Lynch may be expected tc
improve on their showing in the South
Atlantic championship, in which they
finished fifth and eleventh, respectively
Healy had been unable to train through
an accident which happened to him two
months previous to the race, and was
only entered in an effort to land the team
trophy. Lynch had not trained day for
the champs, but when Williams and
DOugherty were unable to compete the
veteran donned the colors of the yellow
and white and toed the mark. His re-
markable endurance alone pushed him
across the board in eleventh position.
Healy, Lynch and Williams are the
veterans of the Yellow and White and
are the ones the youngsters depend on
to show the way in all the races. Healy
and Lynch have both shown their best
speed at the long distance hikes and
should they enter the twenty-mile affair
TO be held by the Fourteenth Infantry,
of Brooklyn, on George Washington
birthday. they will be among the first
twenty men to cross the board.
Placing two men such as these In the
first twenty is doing exceptionally good
as close to three hundred athletes toe
the mark in this big race.
When Dan HeaIy entered the cham
pionship he was In no condition TO do
himself justice, as he was injured early
in the fall and his doctor refused 10

Association Grapplers Are to
Compete in Open Tourney
of the Memorial Athletic
Club.
CREDIT FOR PAXTON

The wrestling team of the Y.-M. c. A
promises to play a prominent part in the
open wrestling tournament that will be
held by the Memorial Athletic Club at
the latter's clubhouse on the evening Of
February ). The lads have been train
ing under the supervision OF Coach Pax
'ton. and from all reports they have
rounded into perfect condition.
Paxton deserves all sorts of credit for
the way he has handled the wrestlers at
the Y and by the performance of his men
in all the events they have entered OF
late.
1t might be mentioned that Paxton has
held the I45-pou1d championship Of this
city and the South Atlantic district for
a number of years, and recently startled
the natives by entering the l45 and 15s
pound classes in the one meet and carry
ing of stellar honors in both classes.
The will be represented by Buckner
in the heavyweight class, who is one
OF the best big men seen in these parts
for some time: the .45-pound class and
the 15S-pound class will be taken care Of
by Coach Paxton, who will undoubtedly
give a good account Of himself. In the
l35-pound class Weihle and Walton will
carry the colors. Both OF these men
are veterans at the mat game and will
make all who 20 against them hustle.
Elizalde, the Cuban wonder, will wrestle
at 125 pounds. This boy shows all the
earmarks of a coming champion, and
will bear watching. Gregg and Becker
will look after the 40 and lis pound
classes. Both of these little fellows have
been consistent performers for some time,
and are likely to take the long end OF the
events that they enter.
It might be added that Physical Direc-
tor Beckett, of the Y. NJ. c. A.. Is high
Iy pleased by the showing made by the
members OF the wrestling club so far
this season. and for the first time in some
years appears optimistic as to the re-
suits OF the meet the Y mat artists will
take part In.

Endurance a Natural Means

Waste poisons or fatigue poisons,
whichever YOU wish to call them, result
ing from tho activities OF the body,
whether mental muscular or organic,
are something like ashes and they tend
to obseruct or choke up the body. which
means the same as poisoning the body.
In the muscles they produce the familiar
sense of fatigue. even to the point OF
aching if it is severe enough. In the
brain they make it difficult to think,
and in a sufficient amount will make you
sleep.
Now. to keep the muscles and brain
and other bodily structures clean and
free from these fatigue poisons, or the
ability to sweep them out of the system
as fast as they arc formed naturally
means endurance.
