 Among the most frequent minor injuries affecting athletes are lacer- ations, cuts, scratches and similar wounds of the skin. These are es- pecially important, because of the danger of secondary infection,
 Lacerations and cuts should be cleaned out thoroughly, and then wet boric acid dressing may be applied for 24 hours. If dirt from the track or field hasN entered the whether SC could inject antilockjaw serum.
 Physicians to some athletic teams have discovered that & bandage placed on a player Is an invitation to the opposition to concentrate on that player or on his sore spot. Hence, minor decorations and cuts usually are covered with a flexible collodion dressing and the bandage applied only when the player is not in the game.

 The recent Olympic Games focus cd the spotlight of public attention on athletics. For the physician, in- terest In athletics invariably is as- sociated with the injuries that af- feet athletes.
 The coach and the captain want tho injured man back on the job as soon as possible. They also want him capable of turning out his best pefforinance, yet at the same time they do not want him injured per- snAnently in health or physique by tnwise participation too soon after his tessiues have been damaged.
 Most coaches have learned that tic most efficient results can be secured if an athletic injury is giv- on scitntific attention as soon as possible, and if those who do not have the knowledge necessary for treatment avoid doing anything un- tii scientific care can be applied.
 
 one of the most common athletic injuries is the confusion or bump. This is bruise of the tissues drought about by contact with an- other player, a thrown or batted baseball, a hurdle on the track, or simply by & fall.
 For treatment of such contusions or bumps, a specialist advises first ice and later heat. Sometimes a hot pack is put on the confusion or the bump over night. This hot pack consists of glycerine ir some analgesic or pain-relieving medica- tion and serves to stop the pain.
 AS soon as possible the tissues should be inassaged. Heat may be applied in the form af electric cur rent passing through the tissues. This is known as diathermy.
 Another common athletic injury, particularly affecting track athletes and baseball players, is the sprain. "A sprain is not as serious as broken bone, but it will give great deal of trouble if not suitably cared for. The joints most frequently con- cvefned are these of ankles, shoul- ders and fingers.
 Ths first step is to protect the tissues against damage. and to give them adequate support. For this purpose adhesive tape is woven about the joint in a basket weave.
 Football players may be protected against sprains by wearing shoul- der pads anw by strapping the knees with adhesive tape before the game.
 wien a spraln occures in any toiiHl. the joint should be packed Nf0nntlF fn fee until the swelling N und9T control. Then it may be A1sn1ed llkinly with adhesive tape ~ NHnAABe.

 A wise woman will understand that, while love is the pivot of her existence, 1t is only small comet buzEing around somewhere in Q mans sky.
