BIT WALTER CAMP.

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus.)
1t looks more and more as il, as
predicted in this column, England
F, and America. while not adopting an
absolutely identical amateur code,
would come nearer together in the
next IL months. And speaking Of
this, there is talk that Yale
Harvard track team may 90 over to
meet an Oxford Cambridge team.
There is Nothing extraordinary
about this announcement but there
is spice Of novelty in the state
ment that Rudd is now raising funds
overseas to cover expenses Of the
visitors.
For many years such meetings
have been more or less one sided
financially and the new move
speaks volumes for athletic reci-
procity between American and Eng
lish universities. In the old days
! it was, first, if you want to play
with us we will graciously let you;
! then after British team had come
to this side and enjoyed them
selves immensely with much enter
tanning the position was modified.
Now, at last. it seems to be coming
quite to a basis of equality.
| Lionel J. Simmonds, superintend-
ent of the Hebrew orphan asylum,
comes out with a statement that
competitive games are the best way
to teach boys morality. He believes
strongly that the molding of char
acter in boy is improved by ath-
lletics. He says the boys can best
] be given moral strength and hon.
esty and fair play if they are taught,
when young, the lessons of morality
that must be learned on the ath-
letic field.
The question Of physical condi-
ton looms up quite as much in
tennis as in any other sport, and
this season the Australians seem to
have suffered either because they
did not realize this or because they
were prevented by conditions over
which they had no control from
following it out. Particularly is
this the case with O'Hara Wood.
However Wood has pluckily fought
against it and has showed the
triumph of courage over physical
disabilities. Nevertheless, the in
teresting part to the student of
health and sports is whether there
is not some way to prevent such
attacks as the hand cramps and
other physical ills that assault the
tennis players. Walter Mace has
shown himself an expert condi-
toner Of men by the way in which
he has kept our Davis cup teams
in order.
