All the hurdle champions Of the
past % years have adopted the
style pictured in the upper Illus
tration. That is. they carry their
forward leg up straight in front of
them and keep it in that position
when taking a hurdle. In that way
they alight on the track in full
stride. the same as d sprinter, and
gain a fraction Of time over the
hurdler who bends his forward leg
crosswise at the knee, as in the
lower illustra tion, TO take a hurdle.
The hurdler who uses that style
cannot hope TO cope with the one
who uses the approved form.
Stretching exercises are necessary
to develop the muscles to permi,

Perhaps it is what Bobbie was
thinking of when he wrote the let
ter below, condemning the foolish
ness of fappers, and wondering why
there aren't more girls who think
on the serious side of life sometimes.
What Bobbie doesn't know is that
the girls of the age he's thinking of
are very enthusiastically STUDY
ing how they can win the love
and devotion of certain SWANS or
their respective "sets." And most
of them, seeing how the hoyden and
the wild girl and the painted lily get
by with the boys, endeavor to make
duplicates Of themselves.
Each sex is as much to blame for
this misunderstanding of what is at
tractive as the other. The boys ell
courAee the girls to be dressed up
and mushy" by seeming to admire
that kind of girls. And the girls
encourage the boys to be fast by
pretending they're so fast them
selves the boys can't catch up with
'em. Boys write, wondering why
there aren't any nice girds, and girls
write to find out what's happened to
all the nice boys in the world. And
I wish the two could get together
and establish a new code of morals
and ethics that are clean n fne
and honest. That has to come from
the Young people-not the old ones.
