Diving, which should not be attempted until you have larued to take care of yourself in the water, is a great source of Bleasure and exhiliration. I shall concludes this series of articles by explaining some of the ele- mentary principles of diving. . First you should always be sure of the depth of the water before you dive. Slip into the water and find out how deep it is by stand- ing on the bottom. Only the most shallow dives should be at- | tempted in water that is not more t than five feet deep. Attempt no | dive or dives from a height un- | less the water is ten feet or more in depth From a standing position on the side of the bank, the bank of the river, or from a low diving board at the beach, the first dive should be a little more than a falling off, head first, with arms outstretched in front of the head. Teke a quick bite of air through the mouth as you fall. Keep your arms out in front of your head so that if you go too Yeep vou can stop yourself with your hands and avoid bump- ing your head. Position of Head Important. In diving, the position of the | head is the chief importance in controlling the body. For the challow dive, hold the head up. This arches the back and brings the body into an almost horizon- tal position soon after it enters the water. For a deeper dive, hold the head down. After you get down to de- sired depth, "lift the head up, arching the back, and you will shoot back to the surface of your own momentum, describing a semi-circle, down and up in the water. Many beginners have a tend- ency to draw up their knees in diving. This is not only un- gracetul, but may result in a pain- ful slap on the top of the upper legs. "Bring the>body at full length as it-enters the water. At- tempts to hold this position may cause the unwary beginner to take a full-length slap flat upon the water. To avaid taking a “belly buster” dive more perpendicularly from a h!ghcr elevation or take a more vigorous spring up and then down. _In assuming the starting posi- | tion for these simple dives do not | hold the arms up overhead. Hold them out in front of you toward the_ water in about the angle at which you wish your body to en- ter the water. Then as you spring away from the take off, | keep your arms aimed in the { same direction and bring your ! | i the ring to fight Jack Dempse: A heads and call me names and tell me to me. { know a language to know the meanin j shakes his fist. 1 will smile aml wonder to myself | If these brave men who wish me 1| jin €0 lbud a voice would like to come up in the ring with me and call me names? 1 do not think they would do so even {f they had the chance. Men who speak ‘insults from the crowd are like those who write bad letters and sign no names. They are ‘cowards, and it is casy to laugh at the things which cowards say, no matter how bad they may be. Some have asked me whether it would discourage me to have the crowd against me.. That is a little bit funny to me. §t would discour- age me, perhaps, if the crowd in a strange country was not against me, because then I would think that I was 50 little to be feared that I could not make enemles. Some great writ- er. T cannot remember his name; once said that when the critics in the newspapers no longer took the trouble to say that he was no gqod then he would think that he Was no longer a {great author. Compliment to Ability. It is so with me. So long as the boxing critios think it is worth while to print columns about me saying that I am no good 1 am not worried. So long as the cowards and the mean ones in the crowds that come to watch me fight think me énough to be feared to take the trouble to stand on chairs to boo and hiss and scream | insults at me, that long 1 will know | that I am dangerous and have a chance to win. To prove this I have only to say that it was only after the mean ones in the North American crowds began to think me dangerous that they be- gan to boo and hiss me. The first time this happened was at Jersey City when I fought Willard. Then,| for the first time, I think, some began to think that perhaps after all I might beat Willard and ther defeat Dempsey and become champlon of the world, and so then, for the first time, the mean ones booed and hissed and screamed insults at me. 1 would not have thé people who read what 1 say think I mean that most of the people in_the North American crowds are not fair. It is only of the few I speak, the few cowards that can be found in_all great crowds who scream and hi the few like th 5] TORS. WITTSTATT'S R. and F. WORKS 31913tk F. 0410, 14PN 7443 EVENING STAR.

After becoming accustomed to the falling sensation, the thrill of hitting the water wtih a sphash, submerging and acquiring breath control while under the water, try a running dive. This is best performed on a diving board. Step back several pates from the end and then run forward, taking off with the foot that lands nearest to the end of the board. When you have gained a little . experience at this running dive with the single-footed take-off. try a running dive taking off from both feet simultaneously. Thig is accomplished in the same manner as the simpler dive, with the exception that you bring both feet to the edge oi the board in a one-step jump. As you land on the end of the HOOTS AND JEERS HAVE NQ EFFECT, SAYS FIRPO BY LUIS ANGEL FIRPO. TLANTIC CITY, N. J., September 5.—I know that when I go into | y for the championship of the world I will be surrounded by a crowd shouting for my defeat. As I go through the crowd from my dressing room to the ring men will stand on i their chairs and shout things at me. They will hav their fists over their that Dempsey will do terrible things g when a man sgowls and shouts and sults at poor Criqui. the Frenchman, when he was fighting at his best and having his champlonship taken from him. Will Hear Nolse Only. To those who thinksthat I might be discouraged because the crowd is against me 1 would say do not bet against me on that account. T do not speak English, so the shouts of & hostile crowd here are not so liable to bother me as thé cries of an inimical crowd of Spenish-speaking people. Many, many times I have fought before Spanish-speaking crowds which were almost all against ‘me and when I could understand all that was sald. You may know that there is the most great rivalry between Argentina and Chile. One time I fought in Chile before a crowd of 12,000 people and at least 11,500 of them were screaming, insults at me from the beginning.” 1 did not pay attention, except to fetl good that I was a sufficiently dangerous fighter to make all those fear me so much that they screamed bad names at me. It wiil not be a new thing for me to fight before a crowd which does not wjsh that I win. Perhaps the feeling against me here is more keen than it would be against a European, because 1 am more nearly the neighbor. Sometimes I think it is forgotten that I am as much an American as you who read this. You are North American; I am South American.

This will result in a spring which will throw you up in the air. Be sure that you have enough momentum in yvour run to take you out away from the board as well as up or you may come down in your tracks and collide with the end of the board. As you go up in the air, do not forget that you must come down head first, hands in front of the head to break the way. Better hold the head up and arch the back wel, as you will hit the water with greater force than in previous dives. You will go deep- £r than you may wish if you hold the head down Always hold the palms of the hands together in front of the head: This makes a hole and saves an unpleasant impact of the head upon the water.

Games From Outset BATTLES MARINE ELEVEN 'IN:OPENER SEPTEMBER 22 Also Takes Trip to Atlanta to Meet Georgia Tech, October 6—Balance of Schedule Diffieult. Outlook, However, Is Bright. BY H. C. BYRD. CHEDULED to play the Quantico Marines September 22 and Georgia S Tech October 6, two very difficult games within the first three weeks of the scason, Virginia Military Institute cannot be criticized for having picked easy contests for conditioning purposes. Think of Yale, Harvard and Princeton playing games that early with teams comparativels as strong. In meeting the Marines th= Cadets will be against an aggre- gation of veteran players, in training for three weeks already, and in the trip to Atlanta to face Georgia Teck they are going to stack up against a combination recognized for years as the strongest in the south. And the remainder of the Cadets’ schedule is not a great deal easier. At V. M. L. the school year began last week, August 31, and with it the gridiron squad got out fos its long grind. And even while the team thus gets a big advantage in length of practice on some of the schools it is to play, it is at a disadvantage in comparison with the Quantico Marines, because they started just two weeks before August 31. And despite fine prospects for a team, V. M. L. is going to be up against a real foe when it faces the Marines. In fact, one of the hardest and best games of the early season may be staged in Lexington when these teams meet.
