Fear Tennis Ankles Warned by London Specialist
Alarming reports from London on May 6 describe ankle and leg injuries among tennis players, especially women, due to improper footwear. A Bond Street foot specialist notes most shoes lack proper instep support, causing body weight to bear on the ankle joint. Some players avoid the ill fitting shoes and favor ones designed for instep rather than foot length. A few suggest dancing strengthens the feet, while one player notes a few have avoided injuries by wearing shoes with shock absorbers. The piece also mentions Queen’s and the Bath Club as places where players discuss footwear. The rest of the column shifts to other items, including a Wichita address of a college commencement, a tale of a stolen prize rooster being traced via radio, and a forthcoming Ark Valley golf tournament between several Kansas towns.
