By MerreII WhittIesey

Four years ago Navy won 16
games and lost one in Ben Carne-
vale's first year as coach. He
took the Middies to the NCAA
playoffS, was named coach of the
year. and piloted the Eastern ALL
Stars in the annual East-West
game, which his team won.
With the current season just
one game short of the halfway
mark, Carnevale is matching his
best record in five seasons at
Navy. The Middies' Stat triumph
over Maryland yesterday in
IDahlgren Hall was their ninth in
10 games. 1t snapped Marylands S
six-game winning streak.
Carnevale said after Navy's late
freeze protected its slim margin
over the Terps that this team
wasn't as good as the 1946-47 out
fit. However, that was an excep-
tional college team. which lost
only to George Washington in the
regular season, and Ben wasn't
letting his boys down by the COM
pariSon.
| Navy Is Handicapped.
Because of the academy's g.
ifeet-4 height maximum, Navy Is
handicapped in basketball because
lit never can match the big boys
! it meets several times during a
season. The Middies were taller,
however, than Maryland, which
has one of the smallest teams in
the Southern Conference.
/ But Navy has point in its
favor that offsets the height dis
advantage. Year after year the
Middies play great majority of
their games at home, carefully
spaced at Wednesday and Satur-
day afternoons. and always be-
fore loudly partisan crowds. That's
why Navy's record often draws
snickers from the other coaches.
But Carnevale took this team
to the Dixie tournament in Raleigh
and beat North Carolina by IL
points in the first round and
Wake Forest by 20 for third place.
In the semifinals Navy lost to
good Colgate team, $3.50. Two
years ago the Middies went to
the Cotton Bowl tournament, and
the previous year on a Christmas
tour of the Midwest. Carnevale
is branching out wherever pos
sible, but the usual Wednesday
and Saturday home games are
Navy policy.
This Saturday, Navy gets its
biggest away-from- home test of
the season. Princeton, whose 18-
game winning streak was broken
last night by Columbia team
that was winning it's 18th straight,
entertains the Middies. Princeton
lost to Columbia in New York last
night, 1852, after leading 52-45
with 4 minutes to play. Carne-
vale knows the Tigers are tougher

Navy has tremendous speed, and
when the Middies play George

Bryant Gets 12-Year
Contract at Kentucky
BY the Associated Press

LEXINGTON, KY, Jan. IL
Kentucky has gone overheard for
Paul Bryant, its football coach.
The university yesterday signed
the 37-year-old coach whose
Southeastern Conference cham
pions defeated National titlehold-
er Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl
January l to a 12-year contract,
one OF the longest terms in COL
legiate sports history.
The new contract, retroactive to
January l and extending through
December, 1862, supplants Bry-
ants pact with the university
which had five years toNrun.
Bernie A. Shively, Kentucky
athletic director. said the con-
tract was drawn as a reward to
Coach Bryant for his amazingly
successful direction of Kentucky
football to National prominence. ~
Salary terms were not disclosed,
but reports have placed Bryant in
the $4,000 to $4,000 bracket.

Star Games Entrants Sure
OF Recognition for Records

A wholesale assault on records
is expected in the fourth annual
Evening Star Games at the
Armory Saturday night, and Off
cials have gone to great trouble
to make sure athletes get full
credit for outstanding perform
ances.
Three hundred feet of plywood
curbing will be installed on the
10-lap Armory floor tonight,
thereby insuring recognition of
any records made Saturday. The
absence of banked turns has been
partially offset by a special paint
which gives good traction, and
the long straightaway means
competitors will have enough rae
ing room to show their best.
Other Headliners Carded.
While the Junior Board of
Trade invitation mile will be one
OF the games top features, the
invitation sprint series, with
Henry Thresher defending the
crown he won last year, the
Acacia two-mile run. Touchdown
Club 1,000-yard run, and 6O0-yard
invitation can not be overlooked
Thresher knocked tenth of a
second off Bill Mathis 7O-yard
mark last year, covering the dis
tance in IL. He matched Joe
Cianciabella's 8 seconds fiat in
the 80-yard sprint, but in the
100-yard finale he bowed to the
late Jim Fielding of Georgetown
who equalled another Cianciabella
mark of 9.8 seconds. Thresher
would like to make it a triple-tie
at least, if he can't shave any,
thing off the longer distance.
Hurdler Mark May Go.
Bill Mitchell of GEORGETOWN
now assistant track coach at
Navy, tied Jim Gehrdes' 70-yaro
high hurdles record of S.5 seconds
last winter, forcing Gehrdes to
lower it to 8.4 in the final. The
former Penn State star thought
he could have done better and
has informed Star Games officials
he hopes to show better form
Saturday. If he does, it will have
to be record.

of St. Johns knows he's facing a
well-rounded team tonight he also
realizes there is some one special
he has to stop. If the Eagles can
get enough rebounds to stall the
Johnnies and LeCompte can get
some shots it may be a rough night

Some ones unheaten record hao

Princeton's basketball five went
into its game at Columbia last
night with a record of 18 straight

Columbia had II straight.
Columbia won the Ivy League
test, 53-52. coming from behind
on Substitute Bob Sullivan's field
goal with 40 seconds left. He stole
the ball and dribbled in for a
layup. Before then, underdog
Princeton had stayed ahead most
of the way. The visitors led, 81

Then John Azary, the Columbia
ace, bagged two goals to spark
the winning drive. He scored Is,

Meanwhile, Howard P. Bailey,

for the meet, despite reports from
New York that Willie is anxious to

Bengtsson of Sweden, who is en-
tered in the 1,000-yard run, will
meet today with Dan Ferris, Ma
tional AAU secretary, to iron out
their difficulties.
The two originally were sched-

meets in this country this winter,
beginning with The Star Games.
Later they decided to change their
plans and run in Onlv three meets.
This upset AAU plans and may
cause revision of plans for other
meets.

Navy Five's 81 Pace Motchinq
CornevoIe's Big Year as Coach

Middies are in fine condition and
used lightning fast break to the
utmost advantage.
The Middies always have been
smart under Carnevale. Yesterday
Maryland was leading 1916 with
about 4 minutes to play in the
first half. Then Navy went into
an all-court press, scored 5
straight points over the baffled
Terps and went ahead to stay.
Navy was II points ahead at one
time in the second half, but Lee
Brawley finally started scoring for
Maryland and Navy was hanging
on at the finish.
Wilson Is Busy MILDLY.
Navy's smoothie is Bill Wilson,
its high scorer for the last two
years and a 19-point man against
Maryland. Wilson is a good, all
around ball player. Off the
boards the Middies have 6-foot-4
210-pound Fritz Davis, who must
have come up with more rebounds
yesterday than all the other mem
bers of both teams. Dave Null
laney. who hit a seasons low of
eight points against the Terps,
is a good shot and fine ball
handler.
Maryland played its usual ball.
control style under its new coach,
Bud Millikan. but what puzzled
some of the scouts in the stands
was that Maryland retained that
style of play when it was II points
behind. The Navy rooters were
yelling, "Attaboy. freeze it," but
Maryland wouldn't shoot. The
Terps started coming back by
making five straight foul shots
and two goals by Brawley.
Navy plays. five District area
teams this year, CIV. Maryland,
Georgetown, American U. and
Catholic u, all at Annapolis. To
date the Middies have beaten the
Terps and Colonials by four points
each. If Navy is not the best team
in this area. it certainly will help
decide who is.

MAN WITH A NEW IDEA
Continued from page seven


For Office workers, Ace pro-
poses a three-point plan: get a
doctors opinion of your physical
capacity. Obviously, you can
exhaust yourself if you aren't up
to snuff.
Note the difference between
your mental and physical limits,
between feeling tired and being
tired.
If the gap is wide, try each
day to do a little more work
than you want to do, or think
you can do.
This seems to run counter to
our ideas about relaxing and liv-
ing longer, about relieving pres
sures and avoiding stress. Yet
hard-driving work will not bring
on an ulcer. Hard work, by it
self, is a natural outlet for en-
ergy. The amount of physical or
mental effort expended on a job
need have no effect on the con-
,stitution, the nerves or the tenn
perament of an individual.
It is only when work is done
in an atmosphere of worry, anx-
iety or fear that the conditions
for cultivating an ulcer are pres
ent. In such cases, the amount
of work a person does is gov
erned less by his capacity for it
than by his desire to escape
distressing fears.
If your emotional outlook and
your body are equally healthy
and well conditioned, Percival
says, it is likely that you can hit
a much higher work level than
you ever believed possible.
z. Knew How 70 Relax
"ONE of our Sports College
slogans" Ace says, "is Keep the
steel in the heart and the fab
in the muscles.
The greatest enemy of any
sort of work is tension. 1t is the
main reason for the average
persons lack of success in sports.
When your muscles tense, they
can't coordinate properly and
your body tires more easily.
Tension develops as a muscu-
lar anticipation of action. 1t is
preparation for an effort or a de-
cision. Logically, it should be
followed by a response which,
when completed, allows the
muscles to relax again.
The athlete, Ace points out,
rids himself of tension many
times in the course of a game.
Most athletes mannerisms -
the hitter's bat waving, the
pitchers pants-hitching and cap
tugging, the boxers break in his
punching rhythm - are efforts
to snap tension.
In the sedentary man or
woman, however, tension is cor
related with mental effort for
which there may be no break.
Tension stays and accumulates.
Its first expression is in nervous
body movements: clenching the
Evening star., 1951-08-19


which used to be easy have sud-
denly become difficult.
How can you break this kind
of tension? How can you learn
to relax?
Ace Percival suggests a col
lapsing drill" This has been
tried with good effect by such
athletes as Syl Apps, former
hockey star of the Toronto
Maple Leafs, and Jack Kramer,
Americas top tennis pro. Here's
how it works.
One by one, tense your muscle
groups lightly. Don't go rigid.
just f1ex them enough to feel
tightness instead of relaxation.
Tense, in turn, the hands, shoul-
ders, jaw, abdomen and legs.
Hands, particularly. They are a
key point of tension. You'll
notice that if your hands are
limp and relaxed, it's hard to be
tense anywhere else. As you get
the sensation of tension, hold
your breath.
Then exhale slowly and let
your muscles 60 limp. Collapse.
Associate the action with a re-
laxing thought. Imagine your
self idling in a hammock,
fishing in a quiet lake or.
simply through for the day.
What you choose is unimportant
as long as it summons up a feel
ing of mental peace to go with
your relaxed muscles.
This drill, Percival claims, will
in time teach. your body the
difference between tension and
relaxation. Do it consciously
anytime you feel tension coming
on. In some people, it eventually
becomes an automatic reflex
against a build-up or accumula-
ton of tension.
:. 0veEcoxme Fatigue
DESPITE help from a relaxing
technique, a high work level will
result in end-of-the-day fatigue.
For a quick comeback, Ace pre-
scribes the following system. 1t
is primarily for athletes who
have just completed a tremen-
dous physical effort, but it can
help to overcome the similar
feeling of exhaustion which ac-
companies mental effort.
When you drag home from the
Office after a tough day, try a
quick energy pick-me-up of
orange juice mixed with two
teaspoons of honey. Hold up
smoking for 80 minutes and
take it easy. Percival adds an
other trick which he claims
helps his athletes relax: an ice
bag over the heart for a period
of 20 minutes. 1t may be just
psychological, but he says it
works.
ITO test it, we had a group
alternate ten minutes on a tread
mill with ten minutes rest until
fatigue set in. Then, later, we
repeated, giving the group the
