AMERICAN ATHLETES

DISCIPLINED

How Helen Jacobs Trained For Wimbledon

American athletes are brought up to a knowledge of methodical training. From high school days, through col- lege, the members of teams are subjected to strict rules of diet, and exercise, and to the regulation of their hours of sleep. This disciplined physical culture has meant a great deal to American tennis. All of our best players, both men and women, are acquainted with it, and to very few of them is it a burden to observe the rules of training when they are preparing for tournament tennis.
