BNA RICE GERM OIL CONCENTRATE TABLETS BNA Rice Germ Oil tablets are made from a concentrate of the non-fatty acids, as found in the oil of the Rice grain or Germ. Nutritional deficiencies have resulted due to the lack of using the entire germ in our preparation of Cereal grains, and almost completely neglecting to eat organic and glandular meats; liver, kidney, sweetbreads, pancreas and other internal organs.

Rice Germ Oil has a rare ability to improve the hormone balance of men or women. So when there a failure to respond to a training program, as rapidly as expected or desired, the cause is often the result of a lack of hormone balance. When a person is tired or weak physically and sexually, it is often caused by this same hormone unbalance.

500 tablets of Rice Germ Oil Concentrate are priced at $12.00. 200 tablets, $6.00.

Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur.

DR. COLLISTER WHEELER, formerly WL Chairman in Portland, Oregon, recently dropped in to see us in York. One of the most active boosters of weightlifting in the early days-he served on the National WL Committee of the AAU from 1928 to 1952-he is still in the pink. of condition at 64 years of age. Dr. Wheeler has just retired from the Dental Corps of the U. S. Navy after 12 years active service. He served four years back in World War One.

Dr. Wheeler's club-the Multnomah A.C. was for many years the hub of weightlifting in the Northwest, and produced such stars as Arnie Sundberg (former lightand middleweight champion), Owen Carr and Al Tauscher. Both of the latter are still active at the Multnomah A.C. as physical directors.

While in service Dr. Wheeler carried a barbell with him, and made many converts for the game. He is now returning to the West Coast to join his family in San Francisco, and we imagine you barbell bugs out there will be seeing him in all the old familiar places the gyms and the WL Shows.

YOU CAUGHT US! We wondered when we printed the amazing muscle picture of India's Monotosh Roy on JCG's Training Problems page in the September issue just how many of you would spot our glaring error. Well, a lot of you did, and we can now confess it wasn't a biceps, it was a deltoid separation. But the deltoid apparently had moved down into the spot where the biceps are supposed to be. It was really a puzzle picture! Several of our readers thought the photo so exceptional they wanted to buy copies to hang on the wall of their gyms to amaze their friends.

ONE SMALL BOY who went swimming at Daytona Beach will always have reason to be thankful that the Weightlifters were there at the same time. He and another 10-year-old companion were pulled out beyond their depth by the undertow and it happened that JOHN TERLAZZO saw their heads disappear, and he and the Life Guard went after them.

Both were unconscious when brought to shore, but were revived. A close brush with Death for the boys, and one of them can be eternally grateful for the weighttrained muscles of Terlazzo, who courageously brought himself back to useful life and service after suffering a disabling wound in the European fighting in World War Two.

As our readers know, John conducts an outstanding health club at 19 West 44th. Street in New York City.

STEVE KLISANIN, currently operating his own barbell club in Coral Gables, Fla., at 4027 LeJeune Road, does a lot of week-end flying to appear at the vari-

ous Sports Illustrated Athletic Shows throughout the country. His fine coachinb job with the Iranian WL Team at the recent Olympics has so impressed other nations that the Mexican WL Federation recently asked him to come South of the Border to coach their team for two months prior to the 1958 Central American Games. How Steve will find time for this with all his other activities, we don't know-but we also know that like Bob Hope, "he has tux and loves to travel."

BRUCE PAGE, well-known barbell writer and enthusiast from Toronto, Canade, recently dropped in for one of hist periodic visits to the York Barbell Club. Bruce conducts a barbell class at the Y in Toronto, and has contributed many articles on the Iron Game to magazines all over the world. He seemed to enjoy his. stay with us very much, but wondered when we got our work done. We wonder too!

DAVE SHEPPARD has been working out almost every day in the York Gym the past month. He is trying to get his legs back into shape for a serious try at a World title in Teheran in November. He has done no lifting, but is doing bodybuilding and working on the thigh extension bench. Present indications are that he will build up his bodyweight again to the middle-heavyweight class. Only Time will tell how successful his training will be.

CAPTAIN PETER GEORGE, who announced his retirement at Daytona, has succumbed again to the lure of the weights, and a recent letter tells us that he will take one last fling at a world championship in November. Pete is training in Hawaii, along with Tommy Kono, and feels confident he can get in better form than ever before. His brother Jim is back in Akron, Ohio, this summer, training at his old club, Larry Barnholth's ACMWL, and expects to break several more world records before the year ends. DICK GILLER, former middleweight champ, who did some fine lifting at Daytona, is reputed to be about to engage in the construction business in Miami with Arland Fisher. Dick has often trained with Arland and Stan Stanczyk through the winter months at their Miami York A.C.

Our September Cover Girl, BEVERLY JOCHER ELLIOTT, recently appeared on the TV Panel Show To Tell The Truth, and, as usual, baffled the panelists, who tried to pick out the weightlifter from three girls, all of whom claimed to be Mrs. Elliott. There was no doubt in their minds however at the close of the act, when shapely Beverly neatly cleaned and jerked a 110 pound barbell. The puzzled judges asked Bev how she ever came to be a weightlifter and she told them she was "raised" that way. She grew up at Muscle Beach, and married another weightlifterBert Elliott. She has won a score of Beauty Contests.

Young MIKE FERRARO, who won the Mr. Teenager and Most Muscular title at the Berkeley Teenage WL Event, trains at Ken Stoller's York A.C. in Buffalo. He has been working out for 2 years-is now 18, and a senior at Burgard Vocational High School. This was his third title in 1957, previously winning the Mr. Niagara District and Mr. Great Lakes.

NOVEMBER, 1957

APOLOGY in the September Grapevine a sentence was printed that led several readers to infer that it was of an anti-semitic nature. We are sincerely sorry that this occurred because it had been blue-pencilled from the galley proofs, and was included only because of an error by the printers. STRENGTH AND HEALTH stands for fair play for everyone, regardless of race or religion, and we will not intentionally print anything that is offensive to anyone. Our policy is to tell the truth at all times about sensible physical training without bias and without fear or favor. This policy also guarantees that whenever we make a mistake, we will promptly admit it.

Ques-

WHAT'S NEW IN YORK tion of the month Who Stole Bacon's Pants? Former Mr. America JULES BACON returned to his home at Brookside Park a few weeks back to find that thieves had broken in and stolen all his clothing, and various other valuables, Since Jules has long been known as one of York's bestdressed men-about-town, we are wondering if this was a sort of inside job, so to speak. Result of the catastrophe is that Jules, now that he has to buy all new clothes, has decided to build himself up into the heavyweight class. He weighed 1911⁄2 pounds on the gym scales last Tuesday. So if the robber reads these lines don't bother to bring the pants. back. They wouldn't fit Jules anyway. The GRIMEK family spent a week in New York in July (did you see Angela on Today?) and wore out their legs and shoes seeing all the museums and stuff. They also ran Sig Klein's pooch Schnappsie ragged and in general had a wonderful time. The main purpose of the Broadway Safari was to cram some culture into young heads, and to teach them that life was not all beefsteak and dumbells. Result: they came back with rested minds but tired feet. Visitors to York recently included a Physical Therapist with large muscles. Eager to get free treatments, the whole gang crowded around the operating table in the gym. Result: JCG and HBP still have sore backs. Nobody can tell us that the best things in life are free. HARRY UTTERBACK, our traffic man, and a former baseball player, spent his vacation watching the Baltimore Orioles. MIKE DIETZ farms 300 acres and attends to all the money matters for the various York enterprises, and is thinking of taking dancing lessons from Arthur Murray just to take care of a spare halfhour every other Thursday. Captain GEORGE SHANDOR has now made the rounds of the desks during others' vacations and is about to go to Reserve Officers Training Camp. The swimming pools of York will miss him. STEVE STAŃKO has changed his exercise routine and looks better than ever. He is doing seated presses behind neck and his deltoids are bulging. Nobody knows how big his arms are because nobody has ever seen a tape measure in the York gym. DICK BACHTELL is still week-ending at his Mountain retreat in West Virginia and waiting eagerly for the hunting season to bust loose. Ever since that guy shot an elephant with a bow and arrow, Archer Dick has been day-dreaming of going on an African Safari. He figures that if he could catch two elephants standing side by side, he might get 'em both with one arrow. Strange sight in the Gym... DAVE SHEPPARD doing nothing but light (Continued on page 54)
