Closson approached the opposite end
of the log.
AS the animal emerged slowly
Closson cracked it over the heac
with a club and is proudly display
ing the prize red fox which probably
will ultimately become a neckpiece

it ever was. In the old days a
great many backaches used to be
ascribed to ~corsets, and nowadays
we prescribe corsets for many
cases of backaehe.
This apparent paradox has been
explained by DR.. Frank ODER OF
Boston. He points out that thirty
years ago Drs. Reynolds and
Lovett Of Boston published taeir
studies on the relationship be
tween corsets and chronic back
ache. They spent a long time IN
the experimental stuGy of body
balance and fatigue - related to
posture and support.
In the days when corscts Were
more common than they are now,
they decided that the ordinary
corset, which was worn for
aesthetic and fashionable pur-
poses. could be divided into three
classes: neutral, bad and good.
Most rcady-made corsets are Of
the neutral kind, They Do NO. pro
duce bad posture, nor do they cor
rect bad posture. The bad eorsets
produce backache. and they have
three common characteristics.
First: they are too long behind
and too short in front; second:

Manager Starts Conn, Louis Steam With "Requests"

New York, June 3-(Up)-Johnny Ray, manager of Billy Conn, shat. terg pugllistic precedent today when he goes before the boxing commls. yton with four requests to enable his fighter to come into the ring red hot" for his heavyweight title batttle with Joe Louis.
 Rays pronouneement came while Conn entered his second day of training for the bout at the Polo Grounds on June ie. Cateeorlcaliy speaking, his argument should sound something like this:
 tD--PittSburgh Billy should Do per. Initted to remain in his dressing room until oil the pre.fight formal. ities have been completed.
 [O-The gloves should be laced on In the dressing room rather than in the ring.
 (3)-Both fighters should be given thorough instructions ct the weigh. in regarding rules governing the fight, instead of In mid-ring just be- fore the bell.
 AHS phbbAO bttOuLU pekll hS soon as Conn climbs into the ring.
 Ray explains his unusual ideas this way: Billy is & slow starter. He doesn't warm up until around the fifth or sixth round. Then he's hell.on-wheelS. We're going to have him shadow-box about eight rounds in the dressing room to get him hot for this fight.
 That's why we want oil that pre-. fight stuff eliminated. It's no use letting Cong cool of in his corner while Q bunch of fighters are being introduced, announcements are be. ing made ard gloves tied on."
 Commission contracts for the fight will be signed and Q physical check. up Of both fighters made today, Louis, conditioning at Greenwood Lake. N. Y., will drive in for the ceremony.
