Rotate the hands from the wrists in wide circles, slowly and loosely. Let them flap as freelv, as 1. Clench the hands hard for a couple of seconds. Then let them relax. Repeat several times. In addition, here are some simple drills which will help you contlol and relax the muscles of the hands and wrists. 2. Stretch the fingers wide as possible for a couple of seconds. Then let them relax. Repeat sev- eral times. Catch that ball as if it is an egg which will break if not treated gently. The fingers should be loose, the wrists relaxed. Practice catch- ing with both hands and with one hand, particularly the hand with which you are most awkward. Frank Clair, coach of the Toron- to Argonauts, Dominion Football Champions, who played profession. 31 football with the Washington Redskins, used to carry a football with him everywhere he went while in high School, just to get the ‘feel' of it. Of course, he didn’t take it to classes, but he usually had one under his arm at other times. How can relaxation be deve’lop- ed? One good way, of course, is plenty of practice at handling the ball, during which the athlete con- centrates on keeping loose. This includes sessions of throwing the ball around with a pal. Most good coaches include ball-handling prac- tice at every workout. This does little good, however, unless the ball carrier concentrates on keeping re- laxed. The phrase, “tight hands" means that the fingers and wrists are stiff and rigid. The ball is very likely to bounce when it is received, and the result is a. fumble, or at least momentary loss of control which ruins the splitâ€"second timing nec- essary to the success of the play. Tight hands are a common fault of young football players and even some older ones. Frank Leahy, coach of the Fight- ing Irish at Notre Dame, has an explanation for this. He says that "tight hands” cause more losses in football than anything ese. By this, Leahy is 'referring to the fact that one of the great secrets of ball handling (taking the ball from the quarterback, catching kicks 01- passes), is lease, relaxed hands. Many football victories are ac- tually lost rather than won. By this, we mean the losing team hands the ball game to its oppon- ents on a platter, usually through fumbles. 4* The Sports Clinic Insulation WOODWAao AV! E. STEELE [IE wcuuuo szv (.- Alum.

There were 21 bedrooms, a large dining room, and a bar. Isaac McBride was the proprietor. His grand- children, Pat and Annie McBride, live on the McBride farm, across the road from where the McBride Hotel once stood.
