back, the neck muscles, and nerve.
First, remove your street clothes

Exercise as the arms are dropped.
The movement is stretch all

takes to inhale deeply. You will
have to hold the chest high, but

movements and then run on your

gone through this routine, you

When you take the bath the
water should be rather hot to

in the tub for from three to five
minutes, run the cool water in and
use a rough sponge or brush to
scrub vigorously with a mild soap.

game for Georgetown. The hit
scored John Cavadine with the

Going into the tenth, the score

come, Parker, no boaStingD that
my fine feathered friend Col. John
Reed Fitzpatrick would be in a
terrible fix just about now had
both New York teams reached the
final round of the Stanley Cup
playoffS instead of just the Rang
ers. Fancy the fun there would
be if the good Colonel had to tell
his thousands of faithful hockey
patrons that only one of the final
round games could be played in
the Garden and that it would be
necessary for the Rangers and
Americans to play the rest of them
in Toronto or Philadelphia or,
possibly, Calgary.
Hockey has been built up to the
point where it is now the Gardens
chief source of income. But, Just
because it's laying golden eggs is
no reason why the Garden should
give it the goose treatment! If
the Colonel is wise, he will heed
the warning contained in those
ominous boos with which fans at
the playoff games in the Garden
greeted the announcement of the
opening of the circus. They've
been getting shabby deal on the
playoffS ever since the new Garden
was opened and, after a dozen
years, it's about time something
was done to remedy the situation.

den probably will be offering re
