Il have found Nujol followed by
alcohol the best and most practical
kind of rundown. | adopted the
custom Of using Nujol in this
way some time ago because it pre-
vents friction, is free from odor and
in no way discolors the skin, leaving
the body clean and free from all
oily substances and unpleasant

Nujol is NOT a medicine. II con-

AmAcNIFIcENT physical speci-
Amen, Observation-Disclosures
of htness-this is Gene Tunney
today, ready and confident to
defend his title as champion
heavyweight of the world.
One great secret of Tunney's
success is that he never-even
between fghts--lets himself get
soft, lets his system become
sluggish. He's always in first
class trim.
You might think, with all the
strenuous exercise he gets, he'd
never need anything else to keep
his system in perfect order. Yet
1'unney takes Nujol regularly
every day to keep himself in
Al condition.
This is what he says:
Il started taking Nujol internally
seven years ago. The FIRST month
Nujoi brought remarkable
changes in my physical condition.
Gas-pockets no longer formed in
my stomach and intesnnes. My
elimination became active and nor
NAL. My appetite increased and
desire for intensive training was
created. Since that time ] have
taken NujoI about five nights a
week. / have regulated myself TO
the amount necessary 10 keep my
elimination normal. II ] discover
that ! have taken an overdose ]
stop its use for a couple of days
when | renew my daily practice of
taking a swallow from the bottle
before retiring.
Il have found during my seven
years experience with NujoI that
it is not habit-forraing, or in any
way unpleasant or harmful"
Tunney is equally enthusiastic
about Nujol as an external rub.
He has his trainer use IL on him
regularly.

Question-An outgoing player gives
instructions TO the substitute taking his

municate. Could you call a foul for
communicating. for having six players
on the court. or for any other reason?
Answer-There Is nothing Illegal
about this. The rule against communi-
eating restricts only players coming into
the game. There are usually six play
ers OF one team on the floor when a
substitution is made. but no harm Is
done, because play is suspended.
