. Learn to enjoy life ..
... don't be a winner
By KEITH R. WOOD
Since you have already started to read this column, I will
assume that you are somewhat athletically minded. You no
doubt relish a particular sense, of/ pleasure from participation
in events that are loaded with tension. Even more you desire g
the strong competition involved in .athletic events.
Well, there is a more than very good chance that you will
participate in one of the most tension-packed, dompetitive
activities possible if you are male over eighteen years old. It's
the kind of activity that makes your heart beat faster with a
sense of knowing you must overcome almost insurmountable
odds. What I am speaking of is the pre-induction physical, which
you may call a sporting event If you have a morbid sense of
humor. -
What differentiates the pre-induction physical from other
athletic events is that your objective is to be a loser, not a win-
ner. It is your goal, by means of quick maneuvering and clever
thinking, to outwit your opponent and convince him that you
are by all means a complete and hopeless loser.
The "game" is divided into four periods: the questionnaire,
the mental, the physical, and the security.
IN THE FIRST period you outline your strategy for the
rest of the "game"' You run into very little opposition in the first
period; your adversary is holding off his largest threats until the
third period. ,In the questionnaire period, you inform your op-
ponent as, to exactly what he is to expect in the third period.'
That naturally will makg you more vulnerable then, and you
will have to be well-prepared to resist the enemy's strong offense.
In the first period you are the offense. You make your
initiaf advances by stating everything that has ever been wrong
with you, from thel German measles'to homosexuality or what-
ever the case mhay be. You must build up your offense as strong
as' possible because the scores you make here will have to be
enqughi to overcome your opponent's third-period offensive
drive. Therefore, you must build your offense with your defense
in mind. You have to be able to defend your offense against any
Sthird-period penalties. So when you fill out your questionnaire,
be absolutely sure not to overlook anything and be able to def'end
what you say.
The second period is rather a static one. The opponent
brings forth a small offense against which you should offer little
resistance. His offense is extremely weak, and you can easily
overecome it. The Offense consists of several questions about
elementary math and grammar and a mediocre ability to build
boxes, You could very easily answer incorrectly to these questions
because you -will more than likely know the correct answers.
However, you may be severely penalized for this procedure. If
you' arq caught, you immediately forfeit the game.
YOU SHOULD then merely take this brief offensive in
strie and reserve your strength \for the all-important third
pe od.
At the beginning of the physical period your adversary starts
with ak tedious offense to wear down your resistance. You go
through a boring routine of blood tests, X-rays, urine tests, eye
and ear examinations, and a brief test of your ability to cough
with your opponent applying severe pressure against ,you. For
this last test you must completely expose your offense and you
will be tested from both the front and rear fronts.
This procedure leads you to be quite tired and somewhat
depressed. The opponent has begun his strong offensive by
making you feel ridiculous. It is important that you keep up
your morale. Don't be too defensive when your fronts are being
tested. Show your strength and be as offensive as' possible.
You will then be placed one-on-one against an opponent
that knows all the tricks of the game. It is now that you will be
forced to make your Initial offense stand. He will ask you ques-
tions concerning all the points you scored during the question-
naire period hoping to find some flaw in them. He will not allow
any points you tried to score concerning past defects if' they
do not hold' for the present. For those that do hold, he will
endeavor to make them as unimportant as possible. Your only
defense against this is adequate evidence from other authorities
concerning the validity of your defects. As a note, it is wise to
prepare these in advance of the game.
, IF HE CANNOT overcome this evidence you have won and
you are a loser. You are not fit to serve.
But he may feel that he has bested you and you must pay
the penalty. Your last chance is to appeal to the "referee," name-
ly, the military doctor- who is somewhat biased. If you fail to
convince him, you're really against the wall. You stand a- better
chance of winning against the "referee" because he has more
knowledge' of the rules of the game. He is then more able to tell

if your offensive points are valid.
If he still declares you eligible, your absolute last chance
for this game is during the final period.
In this period you have the opportunity to bring forth an
offensive by listing all the subversive groups you have ever been
associated with. If you are successful in this, the game will be
thrown into an overtime during which you must defend, once,
again any points you have scored. x
In the overtime your opponent may be one of two, or per-
haps both of two, top performers for the opponept. One of these
is called the psychiatrist.. The other is called the FBI agent.
You get to these men by first filling out nother questionnaire.
This enables them to be well-prepared in their offense.
You get to see the FBI agent if your connections with
subversive groups are considered serious. Actually this is just
another technique to wear down your resistance. All he is after
 Is information considering completely' different opponents in
a comppletely different game.
HE WILL ASK you a few questions concerning your loyalty
and your conscience. If you are .fortunate, you will be passed
on to the moral waiver unit.
The moral waiver unit makes another overtime. In most
cases this period will consist of the opponent gathering only
'more information and the game will be postponed -to another
place at another time, namely your local draft board for a final
appeal.
If, in the first overtime, you see the psychiatrist, you stand
a good chance of becoming a loser if you have a letter from an-
other civilian psychiatrist making explicit your degree of in-
stability. You can also become a loser if you have a history of
drug addiction.
It should be noted that you will automatically thrown into
this overtime period if you declared yourself a homosexual or
mentioned any psychiatric defects in the first period. If this is
a strong part of your offense, you have a good chance of being
a loser.

DAVE McNALLY, Baltimore's ace left-hander, just missed hurling a no-hitter in his team's 5-0
victory over Minnesota last night. Only a one-out single by the Twins' Cesar Tovar marred Mc-
Nally's performance. McNally, who lead the Orioles' staff last season with 22 wins, upped his record
to 6-0 with last night's win, tops in the majors.

McNally, who won his sixth
straight game, had allowed only
two walks until the ninth and
struck out pinch-hitter George
Mitterwald to open the ninth.
But Tovar rapped a 1-1 pitch
into center field for the spoiling
ingle. Then Rod Carew bounced
into a game-ending double play.
Catcher Andy Etchebarren pro-
vided McNally with all the runs
he needed in the second inning
with a two-out, two-run triple af-
ter Boog Powell and Dave Johnson

Big Ten extends elgibilty
of 13 injured athletes

LAFAYETTE (P) - The Big Ten
extended varsity eligibility to 13
"hardship cases," including four
football players yesterday.
The conference faculty repre-
sentatives, beginning the annual
spring business session, sanction-
ed another year of competition to
the 13 athletes, mainly on the bas-
is of injuries. -
The football players granted an-
other season includ'ed a pair from
Illinois, defensive halfback D a n
Franklin anq defensive guard Karl
Pnazek, and two from Minnesota,
linebacker Tom Simon and guard
John Walsh.
Also given an extra season was
a seven-fopt basketball player
from Wisconsin, Eino Henrickson,
who missed six weeks of school be-
cause of a back injury.
Other cases approved w e r e
swimmer Bill Burrell of Indiana;
wrestler P h 11 Henning of Iowa;
wrestler Tom Muir, track m a n
Charles Pollard, gymnast Mark
Anthony and soccer player Gary
Tieman, a 11 of Michigan State;

wrestler Jim Martin of Minnesota,
a n d swimmer Jeff Jackman of
Ohio State.
T h e main business item, dis-
cussion of the conference ban on
use of athletic facilities by pro
teams, will c o n e up at today's
joint meeting of the faculty group
and the athletic directors.
In other action at yesterday's
meeting, the Big Ten rejected a
proposal to add a $15 a month al=
lowance for athletes receiving fi-
nancial aid.
T h e proposal, matching an
NCAA maximum, was mades by the
University of Iowa where striking
black athletes listed t he $15 a
month incidental as one of their
demands.
Marcus Plant, faculty repre-
sentative from Michigan and sec-
retary of the faculty group, said
the faculty men felt "the student-
athletes ought to make some con-
tribution to their own college up-
keep."
Plant said there was a divided
vote, which he did not disclose, on
the, proposal.
