    • Strength and Health Magazine #1Strength and Health
    Magazine #1    		Just in case you ever need to know who was on the cover of Strength and Health #1, the answer is Walter "Wally" Zagurski.

    Zagurski was an original member of the "York Gang" who lifted back when it was called the "York Oil Burner Athletic Club."

    He competed in the 1932 Olympics, won the 1933 Sr. National Weightlifting title at 165 pounds and was a very good all-around strength athlete.

    He was also one of the few men who could lift the Louis Cyr Challenge Dumbbell overhead.
