SECRETS OF
HEALTH
by DR.. C. A. L. Reed

TYOU are very fortunate II you
have no, or only a few. nights
of unsatisfactory sleep. Sleep is
'.tired natures sweet restorer.
You can understand this when
you remember that you have in
your brain a large number OF
storage batteries called Perh1nJe
cells. When you are fatigucd
they are collapsed until they be-
come almost invisible. After you
have rested, taken food and slept,
they are again in evidence. This
shows the Importance of sleep,
which is often disturbed.
Sleeplessness, we are told by
Worster Drought lancet in
cludes not only insufficient sleep,
but also the failure to get sound
and restful sleep. There are,
roughly, three types of insomnia
difficulty in getting to sleep,
the interruption of sleep by dis
turbing dreams or starts and
awakening in the middle or the
night and failing to get to sleep
again. The same person may
suffer from two of these kinds
together.
Some authorities differentiate
between insomnia caused by some
kind of bodily discomfort, such
as pain, cough or shortness OF
breath, and the insomnia that has
no definite physical cause. The
latter kind is nearly always due
to some psychical disturbance
like anxiety, fear or depression,
which acts as mental il not a
physical irritant, AS have
taught in these articles for sew
eral years, Drought finds that
insomnia Is never a disease by
itself.
Bad sleeplessness should, of
course, be diagnosed as to cause
by doctor. He will discover
any obvious physical cause. He
may not be so fortunate. how!
ever. il the trouble is due to a
purely mental disturbance. The
type of physician to consult in
such a case is one who has
specialized in applied psychology.
Anxiety is nearly always due to
place almost entirely outside the
a mental conflict which is taking
realm. of consciousness. When
this is happening, the sleep is
often disturbed by harassirg
dreams A simple example is the
battle dreams of soldiers on leave
in time of war. Later on, sleep
is delayed because the patient
comes to fear his dreams and to
hold sleep at bay as much aSs
possible. The explanation of
these dreams is said to be that
painful or terrifying expert
ences are repressed, but that dur
ing sleep control is relaxed and
they come into the consciousness,
either in their actual form or in
some symbolic manner.
Sleep may be delayed also by
the conflicts of apprehension,
grief, or business or domestic
worries. Anxieties, which have
been overlaid by the ordinary
occupations of the day or by the
patients attempts at conscious
repression. emerge, and have full
play while he lies waiting for
sleep.
SleepIessness is sometimes due
TO another form of disturbance
known as hysteria. This, as is
well known, can take NEARLY any
form. The patient ger rally ex-
aggerates the degree Of sleeplesa-
ness and takes pleasysy In talk

$4,000 In CASH
FOR RODEO RIDERS
OFFER OF TUCSON

Plans for Tucsons' annual mid
winter rodeo-la fiesta de los vaqueros
which will be held this year on
February 24-26, are now in full swing,
and with $4,000 appropriated for
prize money and with Johnnie Null
Inns, nationally known Rodeo director,
on the ground to prepare for and
stage the big event, the forthcoming
spectacle promises to outshine all
previous offerings, according to re-
ports reaching Douglas.
The cream OF rodeo arena talent,
those who compete in championship
contests in the big western meets
of this country and Canada, will be
seen in action at the Tucson polo
field na February, Mullins is assured
in letters from many OF the recognized
stars in cowboy sports.
While holding out allurements in
the form of large purses to the top
string professionals. the Arizona Polo
association, realizing that no section
of the cattle country can produce
more skilled cowboy talent than can
Arizona, has devised a program that
will encourage participation OF home
talent in the various contests in
which they are proficient. The events
will be staged under rules designed
to assure the home teams OF a fair
break for the big purses.

them?
It is understood that the Cadets
would like, to book one OF the big
teams of the western Conference for
a final game, or would be willing to
sign up one of the Pacific Coast
powers and go to Chicago to meet
them.
The Army will be great card
for any team interested in gate
receipts, and, they all are more or
less concerned with the financial
phases of the game.
THE ARMY RESIGNS
There is more color to the Cadets
and the Army teams than there is
to the nnidshipmen. Most any neutral
young lady would be attracted more
by the fancy rigging OF the cadet
costume than by the formal sombre
blue attire of the midshipmen, and
there certainly is more interest in a
balky, kicking mule than a goat.
West Point managers are partic-
ularly eager to get an opponent with
a great big name to take the Navy's
pIace--some team with real strict
regulations so evidence would be
available that the Army eligibility
rules were accepted by Soandso U and
therefore there could be nothing SO
wrong with them.
Navy has a ttrac I'd some large
crowds away from the Annapolis par
ade grounds, but it is doubtful if the
Navy teams could maintain the aver
age for annual attendance that the
Army does in the Yale fixture.
The Army has long established re-
lations with Notre Dame and Yale
and it is quite likely that, under the
existing circumstances, Harvard will
become a fixture on the schedule.
With three such teams on the
schedule and the chance to hook
up with one big southern, middle
western or California team the
Army would be several steps ahead
of the Navy and would have
schedule that automatically would
make it candidate for national
hOnors consideration.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1928-01-19

WHO WON THE FUSS?
Admission by the heads OF the TWO
service academies that there will be
no Army Navy football round, at least,
of the row over eligibility rules.
After this first round, it would seem
that if the Army didn't actually get
the decision the edge was slightly in
it's favor
The West Point officials resisted all
kinds OF political pressure, braved
public opinion and stuck to their guns
as soldiers are supposed to do.
The attitude of the Cadet Officers
that the Navy had no right to tel!
them how they we're to regulate athlet-
les was maintained SO consistently
that the game finally was cancelled
and if any hustling congressman are
to get the issue as far as the White
House they probably Will have to
wait until next year.
Before the football season opens
the commandants will have been
succeeded but the schedule will
have been completed before the
incumbents are relieved, and it is
not military custom to rlde over
the inherited policies established
by predecessors.

LOOKING FOR OPPONENT
The making of the 1928 schedule
that is, the filling in of the final
November Saturday left vacant by the
cancellation of the big inter-service
classic places the two academies in
another sparring match for moral
victory.
Naturally, the West Point and Anna
polls schedule-makers would like to
close the season with an outstanding
national team SO that they could look
in each others direction, MAKE races
and gloat-"You wouldn't play us, Ell?
Well, look who we got in your place.
The Army already is in better
position to show a schedule with more
floss on it than the Navy possibly
can arrange on short notice.

under Jones for the past four years
and generally regarded as Tads right
hand man, is, acceptable to Yale's
football rulers, according to Louis E..
Stoddard, chairman of the 1927 foot
ball committee
This endorsement, coupled with the
fact that Jones is understood to favor
the selection of his young aide, is re-
garded by close observers as all but
the final word Definite action on the
coaching situation will not be taken
until the 1923 committee to be appoint
ed shortly takes hold, but it generally
is believed that agreement already has
been reached.
indications pointing to the selection
of Stevens also confirm the impress
sion that all efforts to persuade Jones
to keep the gridiron helm for 1928 have
: failed. However, if Stevens is named
new head coach, it is likely that Jones,
whose home is in New Haven, will act
in an advisory capacity.
Stevens, because he had had two
previous years of college competition,
played only one season on the Yale
team, but his all-round backfield work
on Bill Mallory's famous 1923 outfit
made an indelible impression. A Kan
sas product Stevens displayed unusual
ability as ball carrier and kicker,
figuring largely in the crushing defeat
that the Ellis administered that year
to Princeton and Harvard.
