Mazâ€" The following boys and girls are the proud holders of the “Water Safety Beginner” pin and are now working on the next award â€" The Red Cross Junior Swimmer." Thornhill District This test includes water safety knowledge, reaching assists. safety skills, and a swimming test. The majority of those who have already passed this test were unable to swim across the pool at the start of the season. Pupils and instructors have been working hard during the past month in preparation for the new Red Cross award, "The Water Safety Beginner.” This test has been introduced to interest begin- ner swimmers in various skills, both in and out of the water, which are basically important for all swimmers. Hold Water Safety Beginners' Classes At The Thornhill Pool Both men got in a few licks in the third fall. The leglock was most commonly used. accompanied of course by a series of kicks to the kidneys. Gori worked a figure four leg-lock on Lopez. then used some of Juan's old tricks and pounded him in the spine. Lopez replied by biting Mangotich, then backing him into the ropes and knocking him silly. A final appli- cation ot his neck twist left Gori a heap on the canvas, and Lopez the winner of the bout. Lopez didn’t give 601-1 3 chance to try the same tactics in the sec- ond round. He stayed near the ropes till he could get a good grip on Mangotich, then when he did grab a hold ,he held him down and proceeded to kick the living day- light out of him. Lopez desn't need tape to be a villain. He seems to have a great profusion of elbows, knees and fists which have a way of unerringly seeking out his opponent’s most sensitive spots. He held Gorl from behind, then punched him repeatedly in the spine until Ed Collapsed. Then he applied his back neck twist and forced a submission fall. The second main bout of the evening was a rematch of the great battle between The Black Panther and Waldo Von Sieber. which end- ed so indecisively some weeks ago. Sieher. taking a leaf from Angus Scott's book, opened the match with a series of flying drop-kicks, which took the Panther somewhat by surprise, and knocked him flat on his back. The Panther rose, Mangotich, who had already fought one bout on the same card, came sailing out of his corner as the bell rang and tossed the start- led Lopez all over the ring. Then he ran back into the ropes, boun- ced off. caught Lopez in a flying body block and slammed on a top spread for the pin. Lopez didn’t even get time to say "ouch". Join the Relds. Browns, Jones, etc.. for a cool, exciting evening â€"- the kids are admitted free â€" at Pinecrest any Wednesday and Sat- urday. Action starts at 8.30 p.m. 4- and there's always plenty of it. By Quintin Wight The main event of the evening at the Richmond Hill arena got off to a flying start as they say, when Gori Mangotich pinned Juan Lopez of Mexico for the first fall, almost before the starting bell had finish- ed ringing. Mangotich’s Lightning Start Ends In Loss To Mexico’s Lopez August, he hopes, will be bigger success for the Reid family. A feature victory would be most wel- come and after grabbing fifth spot in the 50-lap midseason champion- ship, Don thinks he’ll hold his own from here in. After he got his buggy tuned up again -â€"- he‘s a mechanic â€" Don had a good month in July. He finished first in qualifying heats on four occasions, grabbed a pair of seconds and as many fourths. As Pinecrest has a share-the-wealth plan instead of giving the feature winners all the dough, Reid has been making ends meet. With new stock car racing plants opening all over the place, it's hard to keep track of who's racing where or when. However. Don Reid who pilots No. 16 at Pinecrest Speed- way every Saturday and Wednes- day nights, thinks there's nothing like jalopy-jockeying for a sport. Reid’s best fan is his wife, who commutes each racing night be- tween Orangeville and the No. '7 highway track. “I love stock car racing," Mrs. Reid will tell you. “Very seldom does anyone get hurt and there's a wonderful spirit among the boys. And, on top of that, it's so excit- ing." Reid ,president of the Humber Springs Racing Club up in the Caledon hills, ran into a bit of car trouble early in. the Pinecrest sea- son when he took out two front ends in a week. "Do you make any money afit?" he was asked. High School Prelim. Bout “Money!” replied the 30-year- old father of three. “Not very much but haven't been doing bad lately. Generally manage to get in for a bit of money." 30 Years Old Father Of 3 Is Stock Jockey IDISTRIBT SPURT "WI Nancy Utterly, Cathie Sinclair, Barbara Baird, Rodger Taylor, Ar- lene Fowler.

There is some difference of op- inion regarding this question but the top level experts claim that the sprinter should take a deep breath during the "get set" position and should hold this for 50 or 60 yards. Then he should try to take another deep breath and hold it to the end. The idea of breathing in this way is not because of the fact that the sprinter needs oxygen but be- The Black Panther was full of fight at the opening of the third round. He pounded Von Sieber incessantly, then tossed him to the cement at ringside. He then fol- lowed him out and started a Bat- tle Royal on the floor. When this was broken up the Panther grab- bed Von Sieber by the neck and started bouncing his coiffeure 1n the ring turnbuckles. Von Sieber didn’t like it, but he couldn’t say much about it, because he was be- ing strangled at the same time. The referee â€" dozing in a corner it seems, finally woke up to the fact that this was illegal though, and disqualified the Panther, giv- ing Von Sieber the fall and the match. In the first preliminary of the evening. two High School boys, Gordon Sharpe and Bob Tomlin- son, gave an exhibition of Olym- pic wrestling. Tomlinson pinned Sharpe with a body press. Trying to hit hard according to Marion is one sure way of not hit- ting hard. He claims the secret of hitting a long ball is a smooth re- laxed swing that features timing and a proper flow of strength. Muscular tension destroys all these things. Incidentally, this point applies to softball as well as base- ball. So remember if you want to start hitting that long ball make your swing as smooth and relaxed as you can. When To Breathe In the 100 Yard Dash Von Sieber, appearing quite fresh for the second round, began with a barrage of mule kicks, punches and knee lifts to the face. He continued by kicking the' Pan- ther out of the ring altogether. men the Panther came back in again the Teuton Terror caught him in a double bar arm scissors, rammed his head on the mat a few times, then lifted him way into the wild blue yonder and brought him crashing to the mat. A flying body smash, followed by an unique top- spread temporarily disposed of the negro gentleman. Jaques DuBois. of Sault Ste. Marie, was disqualified in his match with Wilhelm Bauer for kicking the referee out of the ring. Marty suggests that the hitter should analyze himself at the plate and if he notices any tightness or tension when he swings, he should try to correct this by developing a smooth easy swing with the shoulders relaxed all the way through. shook hands with the astonished Von Sieber and, flashing a beau- teous set of choppers posed polite- ly to the audience. For some time he was baffled by the speed and great agility of Von Sieber, but managed to catch him in a series of arm-and-shoulder throws, then applied his Conk Bonk and a body press to take the first fall. Marty Marion, famous shortstop and baseball authority claims that “tight hard swinging" is a very common weakness especially with the younger players. This is caused by over anxiety to hit and espec- ially over anxiety to hit a long ball. Marty in referring to “tight hard swinging” means the habit so many hitters have of tightening up their muscles tensely when they swing. This naturally spoils the efficiency of the swing and means the hitting attempt is likely to be spoiled. This is esfiecially Iinderstafldable with those hitters who are trying to give the ball an extra long ride. A Power Hitting Tip The Sports Clinic Sue Paddle An 03101:] Department of Sports College Conducted by Lloyd Percival The proper sequence is to plant your pole. swing up with your pole. letting it do the work, and then as you feel yourself going up with the pole lay your head and upper body well back. Then when you feel your legs moving upward apply the pull. Without a proper lay-back everything else that makes up a good pole vaulter is impossible, with a good lay-back you will be surprised at how easy it is to get up and over heights that are now just wishful think- ing. Hot And Cold For Sore Muscles Recent study by training experts has proved that the best way to cure shin splints and other muscle discomfort caused by hard physical activity, especially when you are not used to it, is to bathe the pain- ful area with alternate hot and cold applications. Start off with hot and finish with hot. The schedule suggested is hot for 4 minutes, cold for 1 and for the best results do this for 20 minutes several times per dew. The hot water should be about 115 degrees and the cold as cold as you can get it. Remember. start with hot and finish with hot and use hot for 4 minutes, cold for 1. The one fundamental that will probably make the most difference to a pole vaulter if he remembers it well and puts it into practise is the development of a proper lay- back. It is the lay-back that en- ables you to get your. legs and hips up to a good height and which enables you to take full ad- vantage of your pull. If you don’t lay your head and upper body well back as you start your pull it is practically impossible to get your legs and hips up high enough and just as difficult to pull properly so that your body shoots upward and over the bar. cause when you have taken a deep breath it lifts your chest into an ideal high position which means that your stomach and lower groin muscles will be pulled up and out of the way of all the action that is taking place in the hip area. A lot of sprinters let their chests de- flate at the 50 or 60 yard mark and this causes them to lose form from he resulting poor posture. The idea is to take a big breath on the “get set" and another around the 60 yard mark. Don’t Be a “One-Sided" Fielder “Big league” managers call a player who can't field equally well on both sides a "one-sider." A player who earns such a title never makes a "big league” team. Lay Back For Greater Height It is only natural that a right- handed ball player should be able to field better when the ball comes to his right side. It is easier for him to move this way to take the ball. The record book shows that 75% of all the errors made in amateur hardball and softball are made when the uball is hit to the left side of a fielder. So, if you want to cut down on your errors and improve your all-round field- ing game, no matter what position you play, make sure you improve your fielding on the left side. Every day make sure you get someone to give you some extra practise fielding and catching balls hit to your left side. Don’t Be a “One-Sided" Fielder You may not realize it but the odds are that you are not as good at fielding balls hit to your left side as you are those hit to your right side, except, of course, if you are left handed, then just the opposite would be the case.

Last Thursday evening parents and friends were invited to a pro- gram presented by the girls and boys. More than 200 persons at- tended and many expressed their thanks and their hopes for a Vaca- tion School again next year. Dr. E. E. Kent was one of the visitors and expressed appreciation for the school. Many girls and boys of the High- lnad Park and Doncaster areas have had an especially good time the past two weeks by attending Church Vacation School in the Henderson Ave. Public School. The school was under the direction of Miss Sara Harrison and Mrs. M. E. L. Mercer. deaconess, who are on the staff of the Toronto Home Missions Council of the United Church. They. with Miss Barbara Barrow, a graduate of the Ontario College of Education, were the de- partment leaders. The parents of the community showed their ap- preciation and 20 mothers and young women assisted in the School, about six helping each day. The school was for girls and boys 5 to 11 years of age, and was held from 1.30 pm. to 4' pm. One hun- dred and forty-five were enrolled and the average attendance was 100. Certificates were presented for 80% attendance. to each department. An ofiéring was taken for needy children in Korea. The theme of the school was “Learning from Jesus" and the program included Bible study. worship, hymns and songs, hand- craft and recreation.
