Mc(‘LI:IIAN BY PAUL PREHN, Wrastling Coach, University of lilinois. OUR cxertises will build up a F boy's body for wrestling. One form develops footwork and balance. Another the shouldérs and arms. ther the neck and an- other the abdominal muscles. The first is divided in‘o three meth- ods. In the first two boys should face :|each other, with right feet forward, right yacks. and each grasping opponent’s hand, with left hands behind | The object 1s to pull the other fellow off balance, forcing him to move his feet or full. Reverse with left feet and hands forward and this will develop strength on the left side, the side that invariably by nature is weaker. The object in the second is the same |as the first—to pull your opponent off balance. But in the second method the opponents should place their right hands on each other’s chests, shoulder or the small of the back. And in this method give attention to decelving the other fellow. Make false motions to puzzle him. Then attack suddenly {so that you may catch him off his guard and force him out of position. The third method teaches the abil- ity to push your opponent backward Go Place your left foot forward, put your left hand on the opponent’s neck and the right hand wherever it can he used to the great est advantage. Ketp your feet apart and have the welght of vour body resting on the ball of the feet. Lean forward into your opponent, thus making him carry the weight of your own body. Then begin to force him backward. Always keep your feet weli apart to retain ur own balance and never cross them. What sports have you mastered? Have you learned basket ball? How many times out of 50 tries can you hit the basket? How many holds have you learned in wrestling? your chums? Have vyou learned how to walk— like Weston and O'Leary and Plint and Frigerio?
