Cups and Coaches

DITY the poor football coach for
L his lack of job security, but at
the same time reserve some of your
sympathy for coaches, managers,
etc., of other sports. Theirs is by
no means a bed of roses.
Take the case of BALD Bill''
Stewart, former coach of the Chi
cago Black Hawks, world champion
hockey team last year.
Stewart learned recently that no
speedy wingman can skate half as
fast as hockey manager slides
when his club fails to function as
the owner would like it to. The
Black Hawks won the Stanley cup
last year, and half a season later
the manager was notified that his
services were no longer required.
Maj. Frederic Mclaughlin, club
owner, disguised with the teams
poor showing, decided to replace
Stewart. In the last II years the
Black Hawks have junked II man.
ayers, all of which makes the NOR
tally rate on managers approx
mately IL per season for that
team.
Any big league managers job de-
ponds largely on his teams ability
to pack in the fans. That can't be
done with losing teams. The Black
Hawks started off with a bang this
year, drawing top crowds. Loss aft
er loss caused receipts to slump.
Therefore, unused Major McLaugh-
lin, new manager was a neces.
sity.
The new manager, Paul Thomp-
son, is one of the best liked PLAYERS
on the team. He'll do his best to
win the coveted Stanley cup, even
in the face of what happened to
his predecessor. Though he prob
ably doesn't like to think of the
high mortality rate.

Grid Rule Changes

THE rules committee of the Ma
= tional Collegiate Athletic associ-
alton, meeting recently, held one OF
its shortest and most uneventful ses-
sions-much to the delight of thou
sands of coaches throughout the ma
ton.
Only two changes in intercollegiate
football rules were adopted by that
committee. They are:
l. The penalty for a forward pass
striking an ineligible player shall be
the loss of a down and Is yards
from the point of the previous
down, instead of loss of the ball.
2. All ineligible players-usually
the center, guards and tackles-must
remain on the line of scrimmage
until after a pass is thrown. The
penalty for violation will be Is yards
and the play also will count as a
down.
The rules committee can well be
congratulated for the adoption of
these two rules. For one thing the
new rules will undoubtedly encou-
rage the use of shovel passes-short
passes behind or to the line of scrim-
mage. 1t is very possible, of course,
that they may lead to longer run
backs by the opponents on intercept
ed passes because fewer players will
now be allowed to go down under a
pass.
The question of safer protective
equipment was threshed out by Of
ficials and coaches. The committee
recognized the countrywide demand
for better equipment. Protective
padding on thigh guards has been
thickened, cleats must be " inch
in diameter at the end and must be
in the shape of a truncated cone. The
wearing of head guards and soft
knee pads is mandatory.

Bruckorfs Washington Digest

WASHINGTON.-It is always ex-
pected that the annual message to
congress from the President of the
United States will outline his poll
cies. The message is presumed to
reflect, in a broad general formula,
what the Chief Executive regards as
the major problems and what should
be done about them. Moreover, the
annual message on the state of the
Union is a document that usually
embraces some political considera-
tons and, frequently, therefore, con-
stitutes the basis for test of its
authors leadership either from
what is proposed or because of
things which were omitted.
President Roosevelt's recent mes
sage meets each of the phases just
described. He outlined the general
policies: l. the necessity for armed
preparedness in protection of our
religion, our liberty and our form
of government-democracy; 2. he
disclosed that he has no intention
of retreating from his New Deal
social policies and that to buttress
them and accomplish national pro-
lection against dictatorship, he pro-
poses to keep on with his policies of
spending. He likewise omitted to
give one bit of assurance that there
is any prospect of a balanced budget
or any means by which the bust
ness of the country, small as well
as large, can look forward to less
governmental messing.
Thus, there seems little reason to
doubt that what Mr.. Roosevelt pro-
posed, as well as what he omitted
saying, places his current annual
message in a position to provide a
test of his leadership. There are
those among the legislators who do
not want larger armed forces; there
are those who think an armed
America will invite trouble; there
are those wanting business recov-
cry here much more than wholesale
reform of our national business
practices and social relations, and
there are those who think there will
be no reduction of unemployment
until the government itself quits it's
wild orgy of spending and borrow
ing-they want a balanced budget.

Effect on Digestion and Nerves

Eject on Digestion and Nerves
Laboratory experiments have
also indicated that when there is
a shortage of vitamin G, digestion
is usually impaired. In this re-
spect, shortage of vitamin G has
a slightly different effect than a
deficiency of vitamin B. A def
mite lack of vitamin B causes an
abrupt and complete loss of appe-
tite. Withholding vitamin G ap-
pears to affect the desire for food,
so that experimental animals con-
sumo only about two-thirds as
much as they would normally
take.
A form of nervous depression
may occur when the diet is low in
vitamin G for any protracted
length of time. Other unfortunate
consequences may be a decline in
the health of the skin. Studies
with animals indicated that when
the vitamin was withheld, not
only did a loss of weight occur,
but there were other signs of nu-
tritional failure. These included
an Inflammation of the mouth, a
loss of hair, thickening and in
some cases, a cracking and seal
ing, of the skin.

Questions Answered

Mrs. G. Nj. 1.-The term, water
balance, about which you inquired
is used to describe the situation
in which the available water from
food, beverages, and that manu-
featured in the body equals that
of the water excreted or lost from
the body. 1t is to help keep the
body in water balance that the
daily diet must contain adequate
amounts of fluids.
E. G. Nj. Jr.-Yes, it is true that
approximately one-third of the
protein required during infancy is
stored by the child's body to take
care of growth and development.
AS children grow older, the
amount of protein stored for
growth gradually decreases until
they become adults.
