Walk out leisurely, inspect- ing nature as you go, eat your weiners or potatoes, rest up and, them on your start back make it a walking race to town. In a walking race observe these rules: “Walking is a succession of st different from running, because running both feet may be off the ground at once. One of the feet must always he on the ground in walking. “As the foremost foot in taking a step touches the ground the knee must not be bent. The heel must fouch the ground first, and the toe be the last portion of the foot to leave it. Tt is imperative that the heel of the foremost foot must touch the ground beforo the toe of the other foot ceases to have contact with it.” Walking is gowd at any season of the year. Start walking now and get 4 chum to try out the form and race with you, short distances at first, and then lengthen the courses. Walk in a park or off a pavement. If possible.

Blocking an Attempted Shot. i ™ PP /] NOT THIS L THIS = Hdjn— ‘When blocking an attempted shot by an opponent the eyes of the defensive player should have an unobstructed view at all times in order for' him to fully size up the situation. ‘The wdy to block such a shot is with the arms spread as in the illustration on the left. However, some players blindly throw their arngs directly in front of their faces ‘when they go into block such a shot as in the illustration on the right. ‘There is no need to try protect the face in basket ball, as there is practically no lkelihood of the opposing player throwing the ball in your face. His object is to avold striking you with the ball. Keep the eyes on the ball as you try to block such a shot, then you can use your hands and arms effectively in deflecting it or in knocking down the ball. —— TENNIS STARS MARRY.

He would keep shaking off “Doggy's” signals until “Doggy” called for the delivery the book desig- nated.
