My only regret is that I cant sit in the stands 20-Au- g. Belinsky ' Have you seen athletes make a great play and then in the act of selfadmiration lapse into the Cadillac trot? This usually results in the loss of die gcxxl play and the beginning of a bad play. Let us define the Cadillac trot as that mode of movement that occurs right after you think you got it made. You succeed and then as you celebrate your success someone pulls the rug out from under you. For example you make a basket, turn your back and jog to the other end of the court, while jogging your opponent, who is not jogging, passes you up and makes a basket himself. So you have lost your advantage because of the Cadillac trot. Unless you sprint back on defense, your trot will be exploited by those who run. and go into your You hit one off the fence in the left ccntcrfield gap confident gallop; alas, two good relays and youre out at third. You have dirt in your mouth and must go back to the dugout to face teammates who know head for the water cooler. you loafed. Run hard, some one growls, as you In sports, although there are lots of these who go into second gear, you cannot win while patting your own backside. The good player, the successful team, and the real wanner, do not take time out for the Cadillac trot. If they get an advantage, they press it If they find a weakness, they exploit it. If they get someone down they kick em. The real good ones, the great athletes, competitors in die real sense of die word, work harder while on top of the heap. They bear down just as hard whether twenty ahead or twenty behind. The world will only tolerate conceit from those who continue to be successful, and not from anyone else. If you carry your comfort with you, as life and in sports. is you trot die world will pass you up. It true in You cannot expect to be both grand and comfortable at the same time. If comfortable.

Regina White Durbin a Is licensed physical therapist and the director of the Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Center at the Saint Anthony Medical Center In Louisville, Kea Sports medicine line The medical subspecialty of Sports Medicine has become increasingly more important over the past yean. This can be attributed to the popularization of fitness and our societys emphasis on good health. In a recent survey published by Gallup Poll the Weekend athlete was found to suffer three times more injuries than those individuals playing organized sports. Simple strains and sprains accounted for most of these injuries. As we find ourselves treating and advising the weekend athlete, we have found that with educational programs most sports related injuries can be avoided. It is our hope that this weekly column will clarify many questions and misconceptions about exercise and introduce you to a better fitness program. 0 THE SPORTS MEDICINE TEAM The daily treatment of sports medicine injuries and the rehabilitation back to the playing field often involves more than the sports medicine physician. Routinely, the physician requests assistance from the physical therapist, trainer and nutritionist to enable the athlete to return to his sport in the best possible condition. We also depend heavily on the parents and coaches who play a valuable role preventing the players premature return to a sport. All of these individuals are essential and should be recognized for their contribution to the injured athlete. PREPARTICIPATION PHYSICAL EXAMINATION Initially, it is safest to assume that those readers who would benefit the most from this column are not in top shape. For this reason, we recommend a pre participation screening to diagnose any physical abnormalities or medical conditions that would place die participant at risk of injury. Flexibility should be assessed to identify any musoiloskeletal imbalances or weakness. This provides die athlete with an opportunity to strengthen deficits fore pardcipadon in his sport and before injury. After a thorough examination, se RISK GROUP POPULATION re- leased by the Department of Health Education and Welfare, nearly 50 percent of all adolescent males and 25 percent of all adolescent females partici- pate in an organized sport. In addition, nearly 5.5 million athletes participate in varsity sports on the collegiate level and another six million individuals participate in intramural sports. With such large numbers of athletes and injuries a more concerted effort is being made to identify the high risk injury groups. In an interesting study by Garrick and Requa, high school athletic injuries were compared between sexes and sports. High school males were injured most often playing football or wrestling followed by injuries in track and field, basketball, soccer, and baseball. Females, on foe other hand, were at most risk playing softball, followed by injuries in gymnastics, track and field, cross country, and basketball. Relatively few injuries were experienced by either sex while participating in tennis, swimming, and volleyball. This study did not suggest that high risk sports be avoided, but instead encouraged conditioning and strengthening so that injuries can be ' prevented. Hopefully, over the next several months, our column will discuss numerous sports medicine injuries and problems. If you have a question pertinent to sports medicine, please forward it to: Dr. Steve Henry, 1361 Tyler Park, Louisville, Ky. 40204. We will be happy to include your question in a future article. pre-seas- 9, two-gam- further investigation may be necessary to determine whether the athlete should or should not participate. Examples of such problems include cardiovascular abnormalities, pulmonary disease, and poorly controlled seizure disorders. physical examinations are important in all age groups. It is in the middle age population that the most serious medical problem can be prevented. Please sec your physician first before beginning a new exercise program or recreational sport.

Two recent games against Woods Cross and Cottone wood gave the Pirates a streak Tuesday nights winning home game results were unavailable at press time. With foe 11-- 5 win over Woods Cross, the Magna squad moved into foe state playoffs, which was surprising, according to Marquez. We werent expecting to get in so soon. The up and down season for foe Pirates has been quite frustrating at times, said foe coach. Several contests have been lost late in foe game, adding to foe challenge to play at least .500 ball. Going into extra innings with powerhouse West High is a good example ofhow foe pirates came so dose, only to lose. Weve lost several squeakers, lamended Marquez. We had West 2-- 3-- 2. 3-- heart-breaker- s, -- 3-- The Bucs recent success can be attributed to players like Meyer, Bateman, Brad Rammcll, Andy Gonzales, Shane Anderson and Willie Forster.

Leaf analysis can aid production Utah fruit tree growers can improve fruit production by having an analysis of their trees leaves. Leaf analysis is the most reliable indication of evaluating foe nutrient levels in a tree, says Karl Topper, head of foe Soil, Plant and Water Lab at Utah State University. If a grower has a leaf analysis done regularly, Topper says, the values obtained may be correlated with the tree performance, which allows for more accurate fertilizer applications. Chemical analysis of foe leaf sample is very accurate, he says. The key is to obtain a good sample and have it processed properly. The USU Soil, Plant and Water Lab and combine them into one sample. Collect leaves that are in the center of foe current seasons growth. Rinse the leaves briefly less than 30 seconds in clear, soft water. Allow foe leaves to air dry before sending them to foe lab. With each sample, growers should send completed plant analysis information sheets, which can be obtained from foe local county office of the USU Extension Service. The shcects include such information as plant vigor, irrigation system used, cover crop, the kinds of fertilizers used and soil texture, depth and analyzes leaf samples, and Topper drainage.

Select five fruit trees of foe same variety. Topper says a single sample should not represent an area of more than 5 acres. Mark or map foe trees selected for future reference. If foe purpose is to diagnose poor growth areas, take a composite sample from affected plants and a separate sample from those not affected. Randomly collect 10 to 20 leaves from each tree at about shoulder height 0, In addition, growers, need to send a check made out to foe lab for foe cost of the analyses. The basic leaf tissue test analyzes for nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus, and costs $15 per sample. The more complete leaf tissue test, which costs $25 a sample, looks at those three nutrients plus calcium, manganese, iron, zinc, magnesium, sodium, copper and sulfur. |
