There are exceptions. of course. but Sports College has found that .the lean, well-conditioned athlete is headed for a life of gaining -weight unless he sticks to some -kind of a diet. '

H Sports College. a Toronto organ-

ization which seeks to raise fit- ness and sports efficiency stand- lards in Canada. polled 1.494 ath- 'lt-tcs and matched their weight 'iigures (against a non-athletic group of 19 persons. Its findings are enoiig to drive many men from the dinner table.

FOOTBALLERS GAIN

For instance. football players are more prone to gain weight after retirement than any other athlete. They put on an average of 31 pounds. Swimmers gain an average of 17 pounds. Hockey players put on an average of 23.

The study was made in order In establish the actual pattern of weight change in athletes after re- tiring from competition.gAnd if they do gain weight; how much and what are the causes.

Its conclusion:

"Athletes become fat on retire- ment due to the fact that they sustain the appetite they deve- loped during training days and use tip far fewer calories from psysit-al activity than they did pi'cvioiisly. When their metabol- ism slows down due to a decrease in activity and also the general aging process, weight begins to pile up faster and faster."

Athletes were warned to take it easy on the food. J. R. White. president of Imperial Oil Ltd.. atitl lornicr campus captain at the Uni- versity of Toronto. ttild a varsity gathering last month:

1 MIXED REACTION

Mr. White”: comments brought mixed reaction from old-time ath- 'letes.

Dr. Sniirle Lawson. supervising coroner for Ontario and the orig- inal Big Train of Canadan foot- ball, said that at 285 pounds he was not much over his playing weight and that he ”feels line."

There were plenty who agreed athletes go fat. One was Bunny Wadsworth. great Ottawa Rough Rider lineman of the '30:.

"I weigh 300 now." Bunny says. ”My playing weight was around 260 to 275. At one time I got up to 340 and then went on a diet.

”Look at Clary Burt. who play- ed football with me at Ottawa. He went about 230 then but now weighs 400. But Clary's doctor -says he's in perfect health even with that weight."

The survey took in only athletes who played for at least six years.

HOW IT INCREASES

Here are a few figures:

Average weight during compell- tltin: 169 pounds.

Average weight one to 27 years after retiring: 194 pounds.

Percentage of those showing more than five pounds increase: 92

Percentage showing more than 10-pound increase: 34.

Percentage showing more than 20-pound increase: til.

Percentage showing more than 30-pound increase: 39."

The weight increases generally began soon after retirement. The greatest increases were reported around the 36-year age level.

NON-ATHLETES

In the non-athletic group the average weight at 24 years was 156 pounds. Average weight nine to 33 years later was 161) pounds. The group claimed no regular. exercise.

The difference in average weight changes was: athlete,25 pounds;

"Play Ball.” the familiar cry of the umpire. has already echoed its eager sires. out over the diamonds of many of the spacious parks in both the American and National Baseball Leagues to remind us that spring is here and it is time to replace the hickory and barn- boo which we find in our favorite corner in the attic with our much worn hockey sticks. skates and skiis. Generally it is time for the change. however, in certain areas the suggestion can be taken as a bit pre-mature. In the States the hickory is presently getting its regular work-outs while in most of Canada the mud keeps the baseb'allers off the fields for sev- eral weeks after the big leaguers start swinging. The appearance of the bamboo is due in most all sections very soon. while only in mountainous zones will the skits be used agaln.this season.

In rare metropolitians such as Detroit, the baseball bat, the hoc- key stick and skates are common- place. with both sharing equal prominence. In Detroit this after- noon. the home-town Tigers will make their first home appearance of the 1955 season as they play host to the 1954 AL pennant-hold ing Cleveland Indians. in the first game of four consecutive days of ball in Detroit.
