BRITISH AUTHORITY
ON SWIMMING TALKS
Says Americans Are Far Ahead
of All Other Nations.
Our Style Of Crawl Differs In Many
Features From British-position
Of Body Is Higher, Affecting
Action of Legs.

One Of Great Britain's leading
aquatic authorities, w. ]. Howcroft of
Garston, secretary Of A. S. A. and
amateur coach to the recent Olympic
water carnival, analyses the methods
which succeeded at the international
meet In manner which may prove
very valuable. He says:
II gladly comply with your request
for my views concerning the SWIM
ming competition at Antwerp, though
there is so much to tell that / must
necessarily confine myself to the sail
ent points. And will start by saying
without reservation that at crawl and
back crawl swimming you are far, far
in advance of Great Britain and other
nations.
I'm many features your style OF
crawl differs from ours. The position
of the body is higher in your stroke,
and this naturally affects the leg ac-
ton. In your style the feet and lower
legs do not come out of water; in ours
they do. We favor what you call q
six beat thrash of even scope while
your contestants usually introduce one
or two wider kicks per cycle of move
ments. Your arms recovery is slower
than ours, easier and much nearer the
surface. Also you bend the arms at
the start of the recovery and we swing
them around in half circle. You
straighten gut the arms for the entry
and we bend them at the catch to en-
ter directly over the center line OF
progression. These, think. are the
noticeable differences.
"In our respective back crawls there
is only slight difference. All your
devotees keep the head rather high,
claiming it allows them to plane, but
we believe this position causes the
legs to sink and drag. We teach a
head back poise, level with the surf
ace, so that the feet are high and come
out of the water in threshing. This
may lose some leverage, but it mini
mics water resistance and there is
forward impetus from the downward
impact of calves. AS our best expo
nents are under seventeen we will have
to wait awhile before attempting to
draw conclusions regarding the rela-
tive value Of these styles"

Mrs. Hicks Relieved
By Four EatOnicS

II have taken four Eatonic tablets
and they relieved me of sour stomach.
I recommend it, to everybody" says
Mrs. G. p. Hicks.
If stomach is not digestTng your
food; if you have sourness, bloating,
food repeating, indigestion or acid
stomach, EatOnic will remove the
cause by taking up and carrying out
the acidity and gases, bringing quick
relief and healthy digestion. Why suf-
fer stomach trouble? Why not keep
your digestion normal and enjoy good
health? An Eatonic taken after each
meal will prevent discomfort and pain.
Make the test TO-DAY and see how
quickly this wonderful remedy acts.
1t comes in handy tablet form. Carry
it with you. A big box costs only
trifle with your druggists guarantee.

kinSon, both of whom have shown
signs of major work. Hodge pitched
one really great game, when he held
the Tigers to two hits.
COmiskey has other slabbers on his
list, recruits of promise. Payne. who
was a>sensation in the Western league.
is one of these.
At least one hard-hitting outfielder,
possibly two, would come in mighty
handy, but they are hard to find. In
Leibolf, Strunk and Murphy the club
has three excellent hitters-all of them
left-handers, by the way-and the first
two named are good fielders. Murphy
Is bit unsteady on fly balls.
Unless the Sox can gather in at
least one high-class right-handed swat
ter. they may switch John Collins, who
was 300 man last year-to the gar.
den and try out Bib Falk or Jourdan
at first.
Falk is both pitcher and a first
sacker, much as Sisler was when the
latter was a collegian. Falk can also
play the outfield. However, in case
the Sox don't pick up southpaw to
aid Kerr, it is possible that Falk
might develop into his mate, and Jour-
dan take care of first.

Football Betting

Baseball came into national dsrepute because the
gamblers found place for entering wedge and
drove it home. Doubtless the players were honest
enough until a sufficient of money offered to
tempt them. Bets baseball games were regarded
part of the sports aftermath until the scandal
became public.
Football is in such danger. The game is
clean, honorable manly SPORT but not professional.
The football player jealous of his amateur stand
ing he is of his ability play To the credit of the
game may be said that most players keep clear of
professionalism They play not only for the games
sake, but for the glory and the traditions of their
schools With something of the fervor that
soldiers to fight and die for the flag, they strive for
victory Every of strength they have is given to
win. At bottom they realize they must win clearly.
Football in itself is unsullied but the camp follow
will smirch later unless they baked
Considerable wagered on football contests
by young bloods, who never got nearer to the game
than the side lines. The sports follow the games
because they interested in footbasitself, but be-
cause they see opportunity to gamble. They have
their work and they have perfected system
whereby they have reasonable assurance of winning
before they bet. Five thousand dollars offered TO
player might easily persuade him to tumble the ball
O a muddy field and nobody would be any wiser
nobody would know except the gambler and the play
er who sold his honor There is record Of any such
practices, but if sport is to be judged by another,
the football players must be protected from the
temptations which the baseball players succumbed.
