Harry Lee Cowles, a small but exceedingly quick and racquet-sports-talented product of English parents who had grown up in Newport, Rhode Island, where as a youngster he was taught all the racquet sports --- namely court tennis, squash racquets, squash tennis, lawn tennis and rackets --- at the famed Newport Casino (home of the International Tennis Hall of Fame and Museum) by its legendary English-born head pro Tom Pettitt. The latter, who had held the world championship throughout the period from 1885 - 90 in court tennis, his favorite sport, imbued in his young protégé an appreciation for the degree of cross-fertilization that exists among all the racquet games, especially those in which walls are involved. As one example, the heavy slice routinely utilized in stroking a court tennis ball (in order to cause the ball to drop straight down when it hits the back wall, making 
it difficult to return) is very helpful as well in making a squash ball die. It is also useful in deception, allowing the player to swing in one direction yet allow the ball to slide off in a quite different direction. 

Cowles is perhaps known best for both the number of U. S. Nationals champions he produced --- his total of seven (Myles Baker ’22, W. Palmer Dixon ’25, Herb Rawlins ’27, Larry Pool ’28, his younger brother Beekman Pool ’32, Willing Patterson ’32 and Germain G. Glidden ’36) far exceeds that of any other coach --- and for the variety of their styles. This latter phenomenon is a testament to Cowles’s ability to make a total assessment of a given player and intuit how that particular player, with his particular temperament, physique, racquet skills, mental assets, potentialities and limitations, could maximize his game. Cowles was able to think originally and to analyze the most subtle situation with the patience, persistence, clarity, understanding and imagination that characterizes all great teachers. It is a telling expression if Cowles’s philosophy in this regard that when he wrote his book “The Art Of Squash Racquets,” published in 1935, the summarizing chapter is entitled “The Best Game: Every Man To His Talent.”

Smelled great in the bag
I'm not sure how well these work, but they smell great. When I received the bag, a couple of the drops had popped leaving a mess inside. I ended up returning them.

Love the Fresh Smell and Effectiveness!
I absolutely love these garbage disposal cleaners! The scent is fantastic – it leaves my kitchen smelling fresh and clean every time I use them. Not only do they have a great smell, but they also do an excellent job of cleaning and deodorizing my garbage disposal. I appreciate the peace of mind knowing that these cleaners are eliminating any lingering odors and buildup in my disposal, leaving it clean and fresh for the next use. Plus, they're so easy to use – just drop one in, run the disposal, and voila! Instant freshness. This is the third time I've purchased these garbage disposal cleaners, and I'll definitely continue to buy them in the future. They're a staple in my cleaning routine, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an effective and convenient solution for keeping their garbage disposal smelling fresh.

Delicious Scent. Non greasy! Buyvit!
Scent: Lemon Cream, Size: 3.3 Ounce (Pack of 3)
This is the first time buying this brand or scent. Instant love. I'm actually pretty sensitive to perfumes, but this particular scent is a soft, gentle lemon. My husband was hugging me and said "mmm what's that?" "Oh just some new lemon hand creme".."mmmm lemon good!". So it passed the husband's test! I love the scent,nbut quality of this creme is exceptional. Shea butter makes this creamy and smooth I have very dry skin cause i live in the desert. Non greasy. Can't say enough good things about this lotion. I also have anthŕ scent
