Deep Massage As q
Home Aid In ArfIhriifis

The kind of massage best suited
to arthritis is kneading or deep
rubbing of the muscles around
the joint. Do not attempt to move
the joint forcibly or when it IS
painful. 4 light, stroking move
mcnt over the joint itself may be
used at times to relieve pain.
The deep kneading OF the mus
cies in the region Of the affected
joint is designed to improve circu-
Iation, carrying away poisons and
other deposits from the joints and
making the muscles more active.
There IS always atrophy of the
muscles around an arthritic joint,
and they need stimulation. Since
it is not always possible for the
arthrltic to move the muscles him.

Joint, the massage performs an
ideal function.
At first, massage of an ar

with wholesome respect, and per-

Every Capital pro with a chance
to win, and some who haven't a
chance, were at Baltimore today
trying to grab a slice of the S400
guarantee in the Middle Atlantic
P. G. A. title tourney over the short
and tricky Terra Mariae Country
Club course. If the name puzzles
you simply think of Rodgers Forge,
for Terra Mariae is Rodgers Forge,
under a new name.
It's about time that Witty Cox,
who has played in three previous
sectional P. G. A. championship af-
fairs, turned up the winner, for you
could find anywhere around town a
lot of people who suspect that Witty
is the best golfer in this neck Of the
links woods. But Witty, good as he
is, is no standout today as the boys
battle over the 36-hole route for the
title won last year by Cliff Spencer.
Indeed, if you want to step out on
limb you could do lot worse than
pick Al Houghton. the Beaver Dam
mentor. to win the crown. Al has
been going great guns this year
The records show that AL has been
in the money in every pro or anna
teur-pro affair staged in this terri
tory in 1910. That, in case you don't
know, is record no other pro can
boast Al may not win, but he is
the man to lick
Tonight, if all goes as planned,
the pros will elect Witty Cox presi-
dent of the Middle Atlantic P. C. A.
Witty has not sought the Office, but
he is the logical man to pull the
association out of the doldrums. Tie
big Cox man is conciliator with
a hand of steel under the velvet
glove, and, above all, man who
can carry the ball for the pros,
which also is badly needed in this

For three years now, Chuck not
only has arranged the schedule for

demain, has picked out the probable
winners. The man positively is I'M
canny If he was inclined to hoss
racing, we'd retire, if we played his
choices But he isn't inclined that
way. Chuck limits his handicapping
to golf
Like most strong, silent men,
Chuck never talks about himself
So it comes as a surprise to know
that Chuck also is an ace golfer
And also to learn that he is high up
on the list of hole-in-one makers

Heinie Mi||er's Job
At Maryland Soon
Will Be Filled
Boxing Coach to Return
After Tour Of Duty
With Marine Corps

Heinie Miller's position as varsity
boxing coach at the University of
Maryland. which he is vacating tenn
porarily for military service, will be
filled within the next 10 days, it was
learned today, although no successor
has been selected as yet.
Geary Eppley, director of athletics,
admitted much thought has been
given the matter and that many
applications have been received, but
said the Athletic Board would not
act until all facts have been con-
sidered carefully. Eppley refused to
comment on the the chances of at
least three Old Line alumni who
might be candidates for the role.
Several Alumni Suggested.
Stewart McCaw. one time South
ern Conference middleweight and
light heavyweight champion; Ivan
Nedomatsky, former conference
lightweight and welterweight champ,
and Benny Alberstein. who held the
same titles, are considered among
the leading possible selections
McCaw. currently employed in
washington, was in the physical
education department last year and
is coaching the Terps' undefeated
soccer team this autumn. AlperStein
and Nedomats aided Miller han
ding the freshman ring team last
winter and with no little success
and the selection of either would
come as no surprise. If left to the
squad Nedomatsky probably would
be unanimous choice because of
his colorful career and thorough
knowledge of the sport
Whether Alperstein would be
available is conjectural because of
his business connections in Balti-
more.
Job Will Be Temporary.
The position will be filled only
temporarily as noted above. and
Eppley has assured Miller that he
will be welcomed back in the role
whenever his tour of duty is up.
Although Maryland has no fixed
policy in the matter it generally has
adhered to alumni coaching staffs
in all sports. Both football squads,
varsity and freshmen. are handled
by Terp graduates. Mike Surgent
and Coleman Headley assist Roy
Mackert with the freshmen and the
Varsity Board of Jack Faber, AL
Woods and Al Heagy is well known.
Burt Shipley coaches both basket
ball squads and varsity baseball;
Rosy Pollock handles freshman base
ball and Eppley tutors the trackmen.

his degree at Maryland so the selec-
ton of another alumnus would seem
only natural for the boxing boss role
