Wrestled As Pro

Senator Reynolds describes
himself as only a fair boxer, but
as a heavyweight wrestler he
developed to the point where
he made marked Roadway as
q professional.
In the latter role he met some
of the important names of the
era, including Frank Gotch,
Farmer Burns, Swede Olson and
George Hackenschmidt. Wres-
ting tours took him as far away
from his native North Carolina
as New York, Chicago, Indian
apolis and Des Moines.
With such a background, Sen
ator Reynolds is naturally
enough an enthusiast about the
general subject of keeping in
physical condition.
One of the busiest Solons on
the Hill, where his mail stacks
high and his four telephones
handle as many as 265 calls per
day, he never fails to look after
the well-being Of his body, the
better to keep in shape for his
exacting routine.
If it is only for 10 minutes
a day, he slips down to the base
ment of the Senate Office Build
ing to exercise in the "gymna-
sum-"
The later quarters embrace
a medium-sized room which
Reynolds and % other members
of the upper body equipped with
gymnasium paraphernalia at a
personal outlay of $40 each,
after getting the building super
intendent to agree to its use.
Increased Facilities
It has a rowing machine, In
dian clubs, horizontal bar,
weights on pulleys, and such
equipment for light exercise as
is recommended for busy men
who have a limited amount Of
time in which to exercise.
I'VE learned about keeping
fit during the World War when
over four million men were IN
uniform and discovered the bene-
fits of regular eating, regular
sleep and properly supervised
exercise while in the canton
ments," says Senator Reynolds.
And even now In peace times,
that same work is being carried
on in the CCC camps.
There are more tennis courts,
more swimming pools, more base
ball diamonds and more soft
ball and football facilities than
ever before, because the ten
dency of the young people is
toward achievement and the
quickest way to the limelight is
in the field Of sports" says Sen
ator Reynolds, adding:
Why, ours is a sports nation
by any standard you wish to
judge. The country is filled with
summer camps, dude ranches
and recreational preserves for
hunting and fishing and horse
back riding"

out Of Virginia and stay out.
