Health Commissioner
Tells How to Reduce

NEW YORK, Nov. 16-(Associated
Press Nadia great many fat peo-
ple in the United States and Canada
avowedly want to become thin, but
don't know how. BY the hundreds
they have been confessing this de-
sire in letters to City Health Com
missioner Copeland. Their selection
of him as the person who might take
q great weight off their shoulders
was suggested by accounts of his re-
cent mobilization of a reducing squad
of fifty fat men and fifty fat women
in New York.
These hundred heavyweights have
been shrinking daily and the letters
from outside New York inquire how
DR.. Copeland does it. Its simple he
says. Proper diet, regular exercise
an I,tl or living habits are all ,llat
IS necessary.
"You cannot be happy unless your
stomach is full" the doctor tells the
fat folks. Then he explains what
foods they should eat to keep happy,
eliminating all those which produce
fat. Some of foods they may eat in
abundance are celery, buttermilk,
radishes, endive, lettuce, tomatoes,
watercress, clans, whites of eggs,
chicken without the skin, shad, white
meat of lobster, Goldfish, pears, apples,
grapefruit, lemons, oranges, rhubarb,
lean meat and skinned milk.
"The greatest mistake people make
is in the selection of their food DR..
Copeland contends. 1.-The average
meal is poorly balanced. This is
particularly so of breakfast. Imagine
wanting to get thin on a breakfast
like this: cereal and cream, hot muf-
fins with butter and honey, sausage
and possibly some fruit covered with
sugar This entire meal is made up
of starches and sugar, which adds
flesh and very often as an added of

DR.. Copeland lets his squad eat
fruit for breakfast, except bananas.
He bars sugar., prohibits white bread,
and opposes the drinking of water
with meals because that makes the
room and inclination for more food.

Fishermen's Trophy
Returns to Canada

The International fishermen's tro-
ply, won last year by the Gloucester
schooner Esperanto, has returned to
the possession of Canada as the re-
suit of the victory. in straight races,
of the Canadian built schooner Blue
nose off Halifax. N. s., recently. The
Elsie, eleven-year-old Glocester craft,
essayed to defend the trophy for the
honor and glory of the Stars and
Stripes, but was unequal to the task.
The Elsie encountered unfavorable
racing luck, but could not have won
no matter what the turn of fortune,
for she was up against a speedier
boat, which registered its victory in
a most convincing manner.
The contest was two out of three,
but Bluenose made a runaway of 1t.
The first race was hers on Saturday,
October %, when she came home first
by a wide margin after the Elsie had
lost a topsail in a hard blow. The
damage was repaired and the second
race held on Monday. October "a.
This time there were no accident. EX-
ceiling her rival in sailing qualities,
the Bluenose crossed the finish line
with an advantage of 3 minutes and
81 seconds.
Both races were sailed over a forty
mile course and the American craft
took the lead on both occasions. Then
she was overhauled and passed by
the heavier Canadian vessel and de
feated decisively.
Captain Marty Welch, hero of the
Esperanto's triumph in 1920, was
skipper aboard the Elsie. while The
winning schooner was sailed by An
gus Walters. Sportsmanship of higl
calibre entered into the event and the
closeness of both contests gave the
fisherfolk of Nova Scotia something
to gossip about. They sang the
praises of Walters, and they sang al
so the praises of Welch, a game and
cheerful loser,

HOW TO
PLAY TENNIS
BY WILLIAM T. TIlDEN
Worlds Grass and Hard Court
Lawn Tennis Champion
Copyright 1921. by Public Ledger Co.
Desire to Win One Essential of the
Successful Tennis Player

~ 49,
Successful Tennis Player
TN HERE are many things which
people call essential in tennis,
many of them justifiably, but
there are four outstanding joints
which can never be overlooked by a
man who desires to succeed. They
are:
First. Keep your eye on the ball.
Second. Footwork or foot position.
Third. Court position OF general
ship.
Fourth. The desire to win.
The first three are technical and
will explain themselves in future arti-
cles, but the last point is one which
many men and all boys forget. There
are many players who regularly go
so far in tennis every year and NO
farther. Why? Not because their
game won't beat better men, but be-
cause they have not a sufficient de
sire to win to expend their last effort
of strength, mental and physical, To
beat the other man. 1t is the man
who drives himself to the limit, and
if necessary, over it, whom we greet
as champion.
Mclaughlin did it in 1914 in his
marvellous display against Boorkes
and Wilding in the Davis Cup match
es; Williams showed it again against
Mac in the national championships
in the same year., only to fall before
the same spirit in George Church in
the intercollegiate three weeks later
These men would not be beaten in
those matches; they would have play.
ed themselves off the court first
while their opponents, overconfdent,
and possibly a little stale from the
strain of former match play, could
not rise to the same intense pitch.
Mental Attitude
Mental attitude wins or loses more
tennis matches than actual form
where the men are in the same class
Why was William Johnston national
champion? Because his mental atti
tude was better than his opponents
when he met them in the national
Tournament.
The man who is out to win will usu
ally be better in the pinch" than the
man who hopes to win or is sure OF
winning. Overconfidence causes care
lessness, while lack of confidence robs
a man of his speed and punch"
The psychology of tennis is a re
markable thing. 1t takes very little
to swing a match one way or the
other, and once swung it is very hard
to pull a match out of the fire. Swing
your match your way. This car be
done, not by an over-confldence that
amounts to conceit and results in care
lessness, nor yet by a seeming indif.
ference to your opponent, which only
results in his increased desire to make
you take notice of him, but by intense

SPORTS
Rifle Club Holds Twice
A Month Practices

Maui's rifle club, organized last
July is now regularly holding twice a
month shoots on the first and third
Sunday of each month from $3.50 in
the morning until noon. At the last
shoot there were nine out and Frank
Hohlweg and p. w .Eichinger made
the high scores.
The rife range being used by the
marksman is the old National Guard
range in the sand hills. The army
issue was recently received and a
steady improvement in marksman-
ship is being noted.
Suggestions have been heard that
some contests on the range between
the East Maui club and a team from
the Lahaina National Guard company
may be arranged.

Dopesters Puzzled
Trying To Figure
Out Sundays Game

Will the Maui champions reign SUI
preme over the gridiron Sunday night?
Will the Blues be able to Withstand
the onrush and driving tactics used so
extensively by the Pearl Harbor
squad? Here you rabbi fan. and root
ers. you dopesters of the knighted
and ancient order Of ''Methuselah,' 90
put on your thinking caps, call upon
your fayorite gods, enter into seclu-
sion and consult the kahunas, then
harness your patience and await the
coming of Sunday afternoon for then
the champions will meet the Leather
necks' in a gridiron baItte ioI su-
premacy, a battle that promises to be
reminiscent of days of old when the
gladiators met in mortal combat. 1t
will be thumbs down and no quarter
shall be asked and none will be given.
Three times this year in football
contests has tradition been thrown to
the winds-the Harvard-Center game,
the Princeton-Y yale, and closer at hand
the Navy-Town team contest, staged
recently in Honolulu. In each of these
contests the prophecies and predic-
tions of the wise have fallen and been
dragged in the nire. each of these con
tests has been won on the breaks"
hut who will get the breaks in Sun
days game, the Champs" or the Ma
rines?
Here is a little of the dope Wal
luku in her two victories over the Ma
rooms scored but 10 points, a single
touchdown converted into a goal re-
sulting in her latest victory and a
field goal by Pogue from the 40 yard
line winning the other. Paia won
from Waikiki the first game of the
eason by scoring two touchdowns
both converted and totaling IA points.
So it sums up as follows, in two
games the Champs could score but 10
points against East Maui and in one
game the Marines scored 8 points.
These figures would give the Marines
a slight edge from that standpoint.
In line bucking the "leathernecks' are
undoubtedly superior but the Blues
should excel in open shifts and plays.
Pogue's punting and drop kicking will
equal any done by the Marines yester-
day. 1t hen appears that the breaks
will again be responsible for the win
ming of the game. The Champions
will be strengthened in the line by
Buzz" Roberts, a former player of the
University of Wisconsin, who will
make his first appearance before local
fans as a player in Sundays game.

close attention to every point in the
match and every shot in the point.
A desire to win must necessarily
embrace several things, which ex-
plains why that desire to win is so
essential to success. First, it means
"keenness," in tennis slang. the love
of the game; second. it meal con.
centration on your match, not OH any
other thing around; third. it means
driving oneself all the time. That is
the most important point involved. 1t
results in your fighting for every
point, fighting when you're beaten,
still fighting when you're ahead.
The desire to win determines a
mans fighting ability on a tennis
court, and is proportional to it just
as truly as a mathematical problem.
In this series of articles will be ia
ken up the other three essentials of
the successful game from a technical
standpoint, and then, in turn, the var
ious shots as made by the famous
players. Especially will the question
of court position and the relationship
of your shot TO your opponents prob.

Net position and where to anticipate
