"Get Into the Game" Says General Leonard Wood "Get into the game." This was Major General Leonard Wood's reply when asked the value of athletics as an, aid to national preparedness. The General fav ors all-round sports. He does not believe our schools cover sports as fully as they might, and thinks they are lacking to the extent that they tend to turn out comparative ly few trained athletes. "Athletic training," said the General, "is naturally a part of military training, and they go hand in hand. Sound military training involves systematic, care ful athletic work, work which •ends to turn out a well-balanced >hysical man; one capable of tanding the hard strains of mili tary service."
