New York, June. s---A broad devllS1-

planned for the coming summer Dur!

Hjertbetg Has carried most OF the work
upon his own shoulders but az the
popularity Of track and field athletics
increased 1t was seen TINT the task va
rapidly outstripping the capacity OF the
original coaching staff.
f9UHtfl recently Hjertbsr1 has had but
two assistants ana II was Impossible
for them TO cover Sweden thoroughly
ana give the swedes the benefit OF
steady coaching Ill summer. H1eHberS
was compelled 10 travel from place to
place with the result that many cities
had to content themselves with one or
two weeks instruction during the whole
season, and several promising towns,
for lack OF time, were neglected altQ-
gether In an effort 10 remove this
handicap, the Swedish A. A. u. made
plans to install ten coaches, with,
H1ertberg as instructor ana supervisor
Of their work.
These coaches, who were selected oy
the s. A. A. u, are all men who have
had experience in athletics. However,
practical experience in athletics WIS
naturally not deemed sufficient; in or
der to qualify - . coach and Il vas
therefore decided that they should re-
ceivs special course Of instruction.
This course covers all branches necss-
sary for the making Of successful
coach. and includes: Practical ana
theoretical coaching, training, first aid
to the injured and hysiene, benefits OF
|lisht Eymnastic exercise, massage, how
to lay out athletic fields and tracks
and the care Of same, and the orsaniz-
| ing Of clubs.
This teaching Of the men in the or
ganizing Of clubs and the general meth
DDS used for this purpose Il done With
the thought that these coaches who are
to serve as members Of the district or
tgani1ations in which they belong, viii
be in a position to advise and help In
the formation of new clubs in their re-
spective districts. When these men
have completed this course and are
deemed competent to handle the work
intended for them, they will be sent to
the different districts and each coach
will have charge Of the athlstes' In
struction in his district, under the SUI
pervision Of Hjertbers.
