_ Active Sports Participation MONTREAL (CP) -- Young. people should become physi- cally conditioned for sports. be- fore actively participating in games, says Bill Head, full- time physiotherapist with Mont- real Canadiens of the National Hockey League since 1943. Head, who has aided the re- § habilitation and return.to action of such greats as Maurice (Rocket) Richard, Bernie (Boom Boom) Geoffrion, Doug Harvey, Jean Beliveau, Dickie Moore and Henri Richard after injuries, carries his strong con- victions on proper conditioning and exercise into the néw sea- son with renewed vigor. "This season we started a new exercise campaign which we had used previously as a therapeutic method -- now we are using it as a preventative measure against injury,' Head said. "Professional sport loses more potential material than any other industry because of the lack of proper physical con- ditioning of youth at the early development stage. "We shouldn't just train our youngsters to play sports, but teach them to become physi- cally capable of playing them first."

In the case of the acquired type, the player is put on the limp from simply straining his legs when he is not in proper shape to do 80. "Ties comes from a sudden jolt or up- set and results in torn muscles. This is considered a major set- back and can sideline the player for up to three weeks. While all clubs carry a trainer, only two have a full- time physiotherapist -- Toronto|} Maple Leafs and Canadiens. The other teams refer their wounded to local hospitals. When a player suffers an in- jury during a game, Head must be on re to prevent the com- plication of hemorrhage and swelling, which accompany any blow. "When this is overcome, it is necessary to get to the injured structures by use of cold evap- orating mediation. "Then we can start dia- thermy, electrical muscle stim- ulation and massage, to get the player back to the lineup."' He said that ultra-sonic ther- apy and exercise treatment fol- low to alleviate any remaining pain. / While diathermy--radio short- wave heat -- and ultra - sonic treatment, which is high-fre- quency sound without heat, are) used, massage is still the most/ important factor in treatment.| "Rehabilitation of broken 'bones is the stiffest test we have to face.

First, it's a very good looking little car. But much more than that, the new 850 is built to perform in Canada. It has been tested in both the hottest and the coldest climates of the world. It will hum along at superhighway speeds all day. It will stand all the pounding you can give it on unpaved roads. It will start on a bitter winter's morning. And, believe it or not, the 850 has a heater that really works. It's a peppy car; it's a fun car; but, it's a real car too (it will carry 4 adults in comfort and it has a surprising amount of luggage space). Its: price, however, is unrealistically low. Try the other small cars: give them a good going over; check their prices. Then try the FIAT 850--buy it, drive it away--and have fun. You won't be much poorer but you'll have the best small sedan that money can buy. If you want a smaller car, a bigger car, a sports car or even a locomotive, FIAT makes them all. So come and have fun in a FAT You can see them and have them serviced at: ZOLTAN, NICK & DAN'S 160 SIMCOE STREET SOUTH OSHAWA, ONTARIO (728-0051) BOES MOTORS BROOKLIN, ONTARIO (655-3611) srein. intury iE | \ ane "» Zs g .
