It has been the custom for years for manto take their teams south as early agers as February 25, and in some cases the men do not return home until the day before the season opens, which gives them over.six weeks to get into condition. That this is more time than is needed is the opinion of several leaders, parConnie Mack, who will not ticularly his men to Jacksonville until take March 10 next season. Connie says that he thinks it is a waste of time and money to spend so much time for a grind that will extend training over a period of six months. In Connie's opinion the only athletes who need more than three weeks to get into condition are veterans and lushers, and as he has he does not intend to to take a vacation at allow the neither, players his expense.
