MOORESTOWN Those who approach bicycH? riding as a way of life know of the pains and discomforts the sport can cause. And the human foot, as the "engine” for the bicycle, takes its share of trauma, according to Dr. Nathan C. Sabin, president of the New Jersey Podiatry Society. "Serious bicycle riders often find their feet complaining after miles of pedaling — sending painful signals of a burning sensation in’ the smaller toes." said Dr. Sabin. "Because of compression of the nerve.

an mtermetaiarsal nquroma — a tumor of the

nerve lying between the

heads of the metatarsal bones at the ball of the foot — forms. Bicycle pedaling

can cause scar tissue to develop here, and the constant pressure can make the

nerve enlarge, bringing on the painful condition." He said that thei'e are

several non-surgical

treatments which are effective, as well as surgical

corrections which should be considered only if more conservative measures are

not totally successful.

St. John Neumann's attack centers around speedy tailback Ralph Di Men. a college prospect who gained'over 1.000 yards last year. Di Meo. six feet tall and 215 pounds, averaged seven yards per carry. The Pirates quarterback } is 5-9, 175 pound Larry Barreta who passed for 12 touejidowns (over 1,000 yards) and ran for seven others last year. The winning team will receive a trophy named in honor of the late Rev Anthony Polini, a former principal at St John Neumann.
