Isl to tougher the young hopeful.
That may be all right, but I'd like
to. be sure the strain" or
wrench" wasn't a broken bone or
& disIocated cartilage or sprain.
Head Injuries Treacherous
Head injuries should be cause for
taking the player out. The treach-
erous thing about them is that
after q preliminary period OF diz-
zihess everything may seem quite
clear for q while, only to reveal
the effects Of added strain after
ward.
Ruptured muscles are far come
ni6ner than is supposed. One TYPE
cal one is tennis leg, which is q
fuDture Of the calf muscles, or e
tear Of the large tendon going to
the heel. The history Of such cases
rs typical. At the time the player
springs or attempts to spring, OF
suddenly turns the body with the
legs held straight; he produces g
sharp twist Of the muscles Tennis
pIayers feel. a surprising sudden
pain in the calf as though hit BY 8
stone. and then fall to Che ground.
sThev can hardly be convinced that
they were not nit by 4 stone. They
think the fall ruptured the muscle
but the rupture was primary.
These ruptures can be repaired
surgically.
Adhesive plaster Is the best
means Of treating ankle and knee
sprains. It is not necessary to make
q pretty job. The adhesive strips
should be torn narrow, and many
narrow ones used rather than
few broad ones. The skin should
be shaved before application.

NOT CRICKET
Windsor Ready to Defy
Criticism, Will Not
Cancel Trip

LONDON, Nov. 5. (UP)
The Duke of Windsor was
extremely angry at Amer
lean labor today and prepar-
ed to defy criticism, a source
close to the royal encourage said.
He was quoted as calling Amer
ican labor resolutions as mot crick-
et", taking the view that they were
hitting at Charles E. Bedaux, his
American tour representative,
through the duke.
A reliable source said that the
duke had been seriously consider
ing cancellation of the trip but
eventually decided to defy the at
tackers in order to back up Be-
dauX.
The duke is likely to alter radi-
cally the nature of his United
States visit because OF criticisms
by American labor interests and
newspapers, sources close to Buck
ingham Palace said.
1t was likely the visit would in
cline more toward the social side
and that the duke would cut out
much of the part he intended to
devote to industrial conditions as
part of his campaign to better the
lot of the working classes.
There was no surprise here at
the dukes decision to make the
visit despite the criticism, because
it was said he could hardly have
abandoned it with dignity at the
last hour,
