Physical fitness is a pre-
requisite for the professional
athlete. Or is it? The Ma.
tional Football League il
rampant with top-f1ight play
ers whose talent and desire
have overcome seemingly over
whelming physical handicapS.
Ray Berry, Baltimore's scin-
tillating end. is perhaps the
most outstanding example of a
man who ignored the fact that
he is a triple-threat physical
wreck" to become one of the
leagues all-time greats. One
Of Rays legs is noticeably
shorter than the other. No
problem. Ray simply dons a
shoe fitted with thickened
cleats' to compensate for the
difference.
Contact lenses aid his faulty
viSien. A malformation of the
back sometimes causes his
sacroliac to lock and prevent
him from Strengthening up. A
twist by the trainer snaps it
back into place, and Ray is
ready to catch another touch
down pass.
KickerS Conquer Problems
The effectiveness of "Bootin'
Benz H-Agajanian, who served as
the Giants field goal and
eXtra-point kicker for five
years, was not impaired by the
fact that the toes of hfs right
foot were severed after an ele-
vator accident when he was 8
years old. The Giants present
kicking specialist, Pat Sum-
neral, was born with a club
foot. The doctor who operated
on him soon after birth told
Pats mother that he would be
able to lead a comparatively
normal life but, of course, would
not be able to run and play
with the other boys.
Bobby Clatterbuck, who played
quarterback for the Giants sew
eral years ago, was cursed with
poor eyesight. of the field
Bobby wore glasses. During
practice and on the infrequent
occasions when he got into an
actual. game, he wore contact
lenses which normalized his
vision. Since the quarterback
ing q0ties were being divided
between Charlie and Arnold
GaIiHA at the time, Bobby
warmed the bench as the weeks
stretched into months. Then
Cleygand came to town.
- Clatterbuck FOrgets
Galiffa had been put out of
action in the previous game, so
Charley was set to go all the
wsM ON the first play from
scrimmage a charging Brown
linen9an slammed him to the
graund and he was carted from
the field on a stretcher.
sClatterbuck! Where's Clat-
tefbuck?" the coach screamed
ons the SidelineS. g.
Here, COACH" came the
nervous reply.
SECT in there"
Do Bobby fastened his chin
strap and darted onto the field.
The weeks of inactivity had not
dulled Bobby's interest, and he
had studied his play book with
the assiduity of the most lumi-
nous star. His mind was ready
foH the big moment. His body
was in top physical shape. But
