SPALDING Price, $2.00 Net A book of 600 pages, profusely illustrated with over 100 full page engravings, and having sixteen forceful cartoons by Ho mer C. Davenport, the famous American artist | The above work should have a place in every public library in this country, as also in the libraries of public schools and private houses. The author of "America s National Game is conceded, always, everywhere, and by every- body, to have the best equipment of any living writer to treat the subject that forms the te*t of this remarkable volume, viz. the story ot the origin, development and evolution of Base Ball the National Game of our country. Almost from the very inception of the game until the present time— as player, manager and magnate-Mr. Spalding has been closely iden- tified with its interests. Not infrequently he has been called upon in times of emergency to prevent threatened disaster. But for him the National Game would have been syn- dicated and controlled by elements whose interests were purely selfish and personal. The book is a veritable repository ot in-' formation concerning players, clubs and personalities connected with the game in its earlv davs, and is written in a most ■ nterestlng style, interspersed with enlivening anecdotes and accounts of events that have not heretofore been pubhshed. The response on the part of the press and the public to Mr. Spalding's efforts to perpetuate the early history of the National Game has been very encouraging and he is in receipt of hundreds of letters and notices, a few of which are here given. C^T ^Sn^e ^Giants tfft ^Vn!A^^ln\ I Im interested in r elding everything I can find about the game. I especially en oy what you [Mr. . Spalding] have, written, because you stand as the highest living authority on the game. Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the Pittsburg National League club:— It does honoAo author as well as the game. I have enjoyed reading it very much." , , , „ T4 . Walter Camp, well known foot ball expert and ^^J?^" J| is indeed a remarkable work and one that I have read with a great de j0H N f B.^dIy, formerly President of the, New York Nationals:- "Your wonderful work will outlast all of us. W. Irving Snyder formerly of the house of Peck & Snyder: — "I have read the book from cover to cover with great interest." Andrew Peck, formerly of the celebrated firm of Peck & Snyder: — "All base ball fans should read and see how the game was conducted in early years." Melville E. Stone, New York, General Manager Associated Press: — "I find it full of. valuable information and very interesting. I prize it very highly." George Barnard, Chicago: — "Words fail to express my appreciation of the book. It carries me back to the early days of base ball and makes me feel like a young man again." Charles W. Murphy, President Chicago National League club: — "The book is a very valuable work and will become a part of every base ball library in the country." John F. Morrill, Boston, Mass., old time base ball star. — "I did not think it possible for one to become so interested in a book on base ball. I do not find anything in it which I can criticise." Ralph D. Paine, popular magazine writer and a leading authority on college sport: — "I have been reading the book with a great deal of interest. 'It fills a long felt want,' and you are a national benefactor for writing it." Gen. Fred Funston, hero of the Philippine war: — "I read the book with a great deal of pleasure and was much interested in seeing the account of base ball among the Asiatic whalers, which I had written for Harper's Round Table so many years ago." DeWolf Hopper, celebrated operatic artist and comedian: — "Apart from the splendid history of the evolution of the game, it perpetuates the memories of the many men who so gloriously sustained it. It should be read by every lover of the sport." Hugh Nicol, Director of Athletics, Purdue University, Lafayette, Ind.: — "No one that has read this book has appreciated it more than 1. Ever since I have been big enough, I have been in professional base ball, and you can imagine how interesting the book is to me." Mrs. Britton, owner of the St. Louis Nationals, through her treas- urer, H. D. Seekamp, writes: — "Mrs. Britton has been very much interested in the volume and has read with pleasure a number of chapters, gaining valuable information as to the history of the game." Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst, D.D., New York: — "Although I am not very much of a 'sport,' I nevertheless believe in sports, and just at the present time in base ball particularly. Perhaps if all the Giants had an opportunity to read the volume before the recent game (with the Athletics) they might not have been so grievously outdone." Bruce Cartwright, son of Alexander J. Cartwright, founder of the Knickerbocker Base Ball Club, the first organization of ball players in existence, writing from his home at Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, says: —"I have read the book with great interest and it is my opinion that no better history of base ball could have been written." George W. Frost, San Diego, Calif. :— "You and 'Tim' White, George Wright, Barnes, McVey, O'Rourke, etc., were little gods to us back there in Boston in those days of '74 and '75, and I recall how indig- nant we were when you 'threw us down' for the Chicago contract. The book is splendid. I treasure it greatly." A. J. Reach, Philadelphia, old time professional expert: — "It certainly is an interesting revelation of the national game from the time, years before it was so dignified, up to the present. Those who have played the game, or taken an interest in it in the past, those at present en- gaged in it, together with all who are to engage in it, have a rare treat in store." Dr. Luther H. Gulick, Russell Sage Foundation:— "Mr. Spalding has been the largest factor in guiding the development of the game and thus deserves to rank with other great men of the country who have contributed to its success. It would have added to the interest of the book if Mr. Spalding could have given us more of his own personal experiences, hopes and ambitions in connection with the game."

Herr Runge (Germany), on behalf of the "Deutsche Sport-Behorde fur Athletik," extended a hearty welcome to the delegates. SECTION 2. The President of the Provisional Committee, Herr J. S. Edstrom (Sweden), opened the Congress in the name of the said Committee, expressing a hope that the work of the Congress would be successful. SECTIONS 3 AND 4. ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN AND SECRETARY OF THE MEETING. Monsieur Reichel (France) proposed the election of Herr J. S. Edstrom as Chairman, and Herr Kristian Hell- strom as Secretary, of the meeting. This proposal, sec- onded by Col. Thompson (IT. S. A.), Mr. Schoneld (IT. K.), and Herr Runge (Germany), was adopted unanimously. SECTION 5. READING OF NAMES OF DELEGATES. The names of the delegates present were read, and the delegates introduced to the Congress by rising from their seats. In all, 16 countries were represented by a total of 27 delegates. 11 SECTION 6. OFFICIAL LANGUAGES AT THE CONGRESS. English, French and German were chosen as the official languages at the Congress. SECTION 7. CONFIRMATION OF MINUTES. It was moved by Mr. Sullivan (U. S. A.), and seconded by Mr. Schofield (U. K.), that the minutes of the meeting held in Stockholm on July 17th, 1912, to be confirmed. This motion was carried unanimously. SECTION 8. FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES. The Chairman recapitulated in brief the results of the discussion at the meeting of the Provisional Committee on the previous day, with regard to the fundamental prin- ciples of the proposed Federation. Monsieur Keichel (France) had suggested that the new Federation should govern professional, as well as amateur athletic sports, the only way to prevent the growth of professionalism being to control it, as otherwise any newspaper or private body might arrange professional championships, etc., to any extent, whereas this Federation ought to have power to fix the venues and times for such championships. This proposal had been opposed by all the other nations, it being considered that the relations between professional and ama- teur sports should be settled by the governing Associations in each country. In consequence of this opposition, Mon- sieur Keichel had withdrawn his proposal for the present. The Congress hereupon decided that the Federation should deal with amateur athletic track and field sports onl y- SECTION 9. FORMATION OF THE FEDERATION. Herr Runge (Germany) spoke strongly in favor of the Federation being formed^ the neeed of it being now greater 12 than ever. Since the meeting in Stockholm last year, all the various Associations have had a fresh opportunity of considering the question of the formation of the Federa- tion, and there was now no reason for any further delay. He further expressed the hope that the decision for the formation of the Federation would be unanimous, and moved that the Federation now^be formed. The motion, supported by Mr. Schofield (TT. K.), as well as by Messrs. Kirby and Sullivan (U. S. A.), was car- ried unanimously, and the Chairman, amid applause, de- clared the new Federation formed. SECTION 10. • STATUTES FOR THE FEDERATION. Statutes for the Federation, as proposed by the Pro- visional Committee, were placed before the Congress. A special Committee was appointed to alter the said statutes in accordance with the results of the discussion, the new proposals being afterwards considered finally carried (Appendix 1). SECTION 11. NEXT CONGRESS. At the invitation of Monsieur Reichel (France), it was unanimously decided that the next Congress should take place in Paris in 1914, about four day? before the meeting of the International Olympic Committee. ( President Edstrom will announce later the time and place of next meeting of Federation.) SECTION 12. RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR INTERNATIONAL COMPETI- TIONS IN AMATEUR FIELD AND TRACK ATHLETICS. The Chairman stated that the Provisional Committee at its meeting on the previous day had unanimously voted in favor of the adoption of standard rules and reorula- 13 tions for amateur athletic track and field sports to apply- to international meetings, thus enabling athletes from dif- ferent countries to meet each other for the future on a perfectly equal footing. Col. Thompson (U. S. A.), seconded by Mr. Schofield (U. K.), moved that the Chairman should appoint a special Committee to draw up draft rules. This was carried, and at the next session of the Con- gress, the President appointed the following gentleme :i members of the said Committee : President — Mr. James E. Sullivan. Members — Messrs. F. Burger. Leop. Englund G. V. A. Schofield. S. Stankovits. Between the sessions, the said Committee drafted rules as desired, and at the close of the Congress the following decision was come to : Duplicate copies of these rules shall be made as soon as possible under the direction of Mr. James E. Sullivan (U. S. A.) and sent to all the members of the Federation (the governing National Associations affiliated) for con- sideration, and for proposal of alterations. Mr. Sullivan, after receiving these proposals, shall duplicate them and send copies for consideration to the members of the Rules Committee in good time before the Congress in Paris. The members of the Committee shall then meet in Paris next year, one week before the Congress, for the purpose of considering the proposed alterations, after which, the Con- gress of the Federation will finally decide on, and adopt, the revised rules. The Congress decided to propose to the meeting of the International Olympic Committee at Paris next year that it should accept these rules for competitions in field and track athletics at future Olympic Games. At the end of the sessions, Mr. Schofield (IT. K.) asked 14 to be allowed to withdraw, and to be replaced on the Com- mittee by his colleague, Mr. Moss, a request that the Chair- man at once granted. The President also appointed Monsieur Willig (France) as a member of the Committee, so that the body now con- sists of the following gentlemen : President — James E. Sullivan (TJ. S. A.). Members — J. M. Willig ( France). F. Burger (Germany). S. Stankovits (Hungary). Leop. Englund (Sweden). S. G. Moss (U.K.). SECTION 13. STANDARD PROGRAMME FOR OLYMPIC GAMES. At the request of the Provisional Committee, it was decided to draft a Standard Programme for competitions in field and track athletics at future Olympic Games, to be submitted to the International Olympic Committee for their decision in the matter. For this purpose, a special Committee was formed, the following gentlemen being appointed: James E< Sulliyan (IJ . S . A.). J. M. Willig (France). F. Burger (Germany). V. Malessa (Germany). S. Stankovits (Hungary). Leop. Englund Sweden). S. G. Moss (U. K.). V. G. A. Schofield (U.K.). SECTION" 14. AMATEUR STATUTES. The President had appointed the following gentlemen to act as a special Committee for the purpose of drawing up proposals for amateur statutes : 15 Chairman— Joh. Runge (Germany). Members— Lauri Pihkala (Finland). Frantz Reichel (France). W. Wetherell (South Africa). W. M. Barnard (U. K.). Gustavus T. Kirby (U. S. A.). This Committee drafted statutes which were read at the Congress, and which are to be submitted for final discus- sion and adoption at the Congress of the Federation m Paris, 1914. ^Herr Runge (Germany) has the task ot making duplicate of the same and sending copies to all the members of the Federation. The Congress will then assemble in Paris some days before the meeting of the International Olympic Committee to draw up definite stat- utes, which shall also be sent in to the International Olym- pic Committee. SECTION 15. RECORDS. The Committee appointed for drafting standard rules and regulations (see Section 12) was empowered to draw up stipulations for records, as well as to investigate and past, present and future records according to both the jnetric and the English measurements. The President of the Committee shall report to the Paris Congress of 1914 and from time to time, forward a list of records entered to all members of the Federation. SECTION 16. ELECTION OF PRESIDENT AND HON. SECRETARY-TREASURER. Monsieur Reichel (France) proposed, and Mr. Scho- field (U. K.), Col. Thompson (U. S. A.), and Herr Runge (Germany) seconded, the election of Herr J. S. Edstrom (Sweden) as President of the Federation. The motion was carried unanimously, amid applause. Monsieur Reichel (France) also proposed the election of 16 Herr Kristian Hellstrom (Sweden) as Hon. Secretary- Treasurer. This motion was supported by the same sec- onders and was carried by»acclamation. Herr Hellstrom thanked the members of the Congress for this expression of their confidence, but feared that pressure of business or. eventually, his leaving Sweden would very probably prevent him acting until the conclu- sion of the four years' period. The President was then empowered to appoint another Honorary Secretary-Treas- urer, resident in Sweden, in the event of Herr Hellstrom' s retirement. SECTION 17. ELECTION OF COUNCIL. In addition to the President and the Hon. Secretary- Treasurer, the following delegates were elected members of the Council until the Congress of 1914: Frantz Reichel (France). Carl Diem (Germany). S. Stankovits (Hungary). P. L. Fisher (IT. K.). James E. Sullivan (U. S. A.). SECTION 18. STANDARD ATHLETIC IMPLEMENTS. Herr Stankovits (Hungary) moved as follows: "Resolved, That the International Amateur Ath- letic Federation recommend the adoption of a uniform set of athletic implements for interna- tional field and track competitions, and that Mr. Sullivan, as Chairman of the Sub-Committee for Standard Eules and Regulations, be requested to secure designs for same from a reliable manufac- turer of athletic goods, and submit the same to the Congress' of the Federation at Paris in 1914; and be it further 17 "Resolved, That, after the approval by the Fed- eration of a standard set of implements, each and every member of the Federation shall be entitled to one pattern-specimen of each imple- ment, stamped and approved by the Chairman of the Rules Committee." This was seconded by Mr. Schofield (U. K.), Herr Deutsch (Austria), and Herr Englund (Sweden), and was carried unanimously. SECTION 19. INTERNATIONAL MEETING AT SAN FRANCISCO IN 1915. Mr. Sullivan (U. S. A.), as Director of Athletics at the Panama Pacific International Exposition at San Francisco in 1915, extended a most cordial invitation to athletes all over the world to participate in the Sports of the said Exposition, which are to be held at intervals from the beginning of February to the end of December. Mr. Sul- livan expressed the hope that every nation affiliated to the Federation would be represented, even if only by a few of their best athletes. The American athletes have always been willing to take part in European athletic meetings, and the speaker felt certain that European athletes would respond in the same hearty manner, especially as these Sports would, in some degree, be trials for the Olympic Games at Berlin in 1916. On the proposal of the Chairman, it was decided to enter Mr. Sullivan's invitation in the minutes. At the end of the Congress, the said Committee submit- ted the proposal given in Appendix 2. During the discussion that followed, Herr Blomqvist (Finland) moved the inclusion in the programme of Throwing the Discus, Greek style. This motion, how- ever, was not seconded. It was proposed by Herr Blomqvist. and seconded by Herr Langkjaer (Denmark) and Herr Englund (Sweden), 18 that the following competitions should form part of the programme : Throwing the Discus, Throwing the Javelin, and Putting the Weight — all with both left and right hands. The motion was rejected. Herr Runge (Germany), seconded by Herr Deutsch (Austria) and Herr M^yerhof (Germany), proposed the removal of Walking competitions from the programme. A second proposal was made by the Hon. Secretary for the non-inclusion of the Walking Eace, 3.000 meters, but for the retention of the 10,000 meters event. Mr. Sullivan (U. S. A.) moved, and Mr. Schofield (U. K.) seconded, the adoption of the standard programme unchanged. This was carried by 8 votes to 6 (Appen- dix 3). This decision disposed of the motions made by Herr Runge and the Hon. Secretary. With regard to the Modern Pentathlon, it was decided, on proposal of the Chairman, to request the international federations governing the other branches of sport included in the said competition, to elect one representative each for the purpose of forming a special Committee, the said Committee to meet in 1914, before the Olympic Congress. The motion, seconded by Mr. Sullivan (U. S. A.), was agreed to. SECTION 20. CONCLUSION OP THE MEETING. Herr Runge (Germany), on behalf of the "Deutsche Sport-Behorde fur Athletik" and the German delegates, desired to thank the members of the Congress for the interest manifested by them during the Congress, and for the spirit in which everything had been carried out. He especially wished to thank the Chairman, of whom everyone 19 felt justly proud, lor the extremely able manner in which he had conducted the proceedings, and he was sure that, in saying this, he merely expressed the feelings of everyone present. Mr. Schofield (U. K.) had much pleasure in seconding this vote of thanks to Herr Edstrom, who, he felt sure they were all agreed, had proved an ideal Chairman and had certainly endeared himself to everyone. It had been a strenuous and trying time for all, but infinitely more for the Chairman, who had been all things to all men. He had acted with great dignity, and it was greatly due to his personality that the meeting had obtained such good results. On the proposal of Mr. Kirby (IT. S. A.), who also sec- onded the motion, all the delegates present showed their approval of the proposed vote of thanks by rising from their seats. Herr Edstrom, in. responding to the vote of thanks, said that it had given him great pleasure that, after some diffi- culties had been overcome, the Congress had happily result- ed in the formation of the Federation. It was the first time in the history of athletics that representatives from so many nations had met in undisturbed harmony to debate such vital questions. The discussions held, and the reso- lutions adopted, could not but be to the advantage of Field and Track Athletics in general. For himself, he had met with every evidence of good-will and friendship on the part of the delegates, and he begged to thank them heartily for it. One duty still remained to him as President of the Provisional Committee, and that was to tender his thanks to Herr Hellstrom, who, as Hon. Secretary of the Pro- visional Committee, had borne most of the heat and burden of the day during the year of preparation for the Con- gress, and it gave him the greatest pleasure to call on the other delegates to express these thanks in the usual way. The vote of thanks to the Hon. Secretary-Treasurer, which was seconded by Mr. Schofield (IT. K.) and Mr. Kirby 20 (U. S. A.), was then put, and carried unanimously, all present rising in their places to signify their acquiescence. Herr Hellstrom thanked the members of the Congress for their kindness. It had, he said, been a great pleasure to contribute in some slight degree to the formation of this important Federation, and nothing would afford him greater satisfaction than to be able — as, however, he greatly feared he would not — to continue his labors in the post to which he had been elected. Should this be the case, he could assure them that he would do his best to promote the interests of the Federation. Mr. Kirby (U. S. A.) begged to express the thanks of the delegates to their German hosts, the "Deutsche Sport- Behorde fiir Athletik," to the Gennan Olympic Commit- tee, and also to the Government, which had been officially represented, for the excellence of the arrangements made for the convenience of the Congress, and for the extreme kind- ness and hospitality shown to all the delegates. Mr. Schofield (U. K.) and Herr Edstrom (Sweden) sec- onded the motion, which was carried unanimously, all the delegates rising in their places. This concluded the proceedings. Ut. supra, Kristian Hellstrom. Hon. Secretary. Eead and approved. J S. Edstrom, President. 21 Statutes of the International Amateur Athletic Federation RULE 1. TITLE.

This committee held several sessions and made its report to the Congress on the final day. The President felt that there was so much to be done in connection with the rules it would be better judgment to have the report of the Committee on Athletic Rules made provisional — have them set up and submit same to each Federation for their approval or disapproval, alterations or additions; then to be returned to the Chairman of the Committee, 21 Warren Street, New York City. Then the Rules Committee will meet prior to the 1914 Convention of the Federation and present thereto the final draft of rules. 32 General Rules FIELD AND TRACK EVENTS. 1 Beferee.

Ball-bearings and swivel heads shall be allowed. All throws shall be made from a circle, 2.13 meters in diameter. All throws to be fair throws must fall within a 90 sector marked on the ground. A throw will be measured from the point at which the hammer head first strikes the ground to the cexiter of the circle, after which the distance is measured from the out- side of the circle. A fair throw shall be where no part of the body of the competitor touches the circle or the ground outside the circle, and the competitor must not leave the circle until his throw has been marked. 37 The circle to be of metal, wood or rope, 7 feet in diam- eter.

RUNNING HIGH JUMP. (a) The competition shall start at a height of 160 centi- meters, and the bar shall be raised as the judge may decide. Three jumps are allowed at each height, and a failure at the third attempt shall disqualify. A competitor may commence at any height above the minimum height. He must, however, jump at every fol- lowing height until, according to (a), he has forfeited his right to compete further. A wooden bar will be used for the cross-piece. The cross-bar shall be of wood only and of uniform thickness throughout, and without weights. The maximum projection of the pegs shall be 3 inches from the uprights. The cross-bar shall be placed on pegs, and pegs to be without rings and notches and of uniform thickness throughout. The ends of the cross-bar shall not project more than 6 inches from the pegs. Neither diving nor somersaulting over the bar shall be permitted. As soon as a competitor has made a spring in order to jump, this will be counted as a trial jump. If the competitor passes under the bar without having made an attempt, it is a "balk." Three "balks" will be counted as a full trial. All measurements shall be made perpendicularly from the ground to the upper side of the bar where it is lowest. If two or three competitors tie at a jump, their order shall be decided by re-jumping. All employment of weights is forbidden. 39 If the uprights are moved, they shall not be moved more than two feet in any direction, The take-off ground about the jump must be level. STANDING BROAD JUMP. (See rules for the Standing High Jump, as well as, where applicable, for the Running Broad Jump.) STANDING HIGH JUMP. The competition shall start with the bar at a height of 130 centimeters. The feet of the competitor may be placed in any posi- tion, but shall leave the ground only once in making an attempt to jump. When the feet are lifted from the ground twice, or two springs are made in making the attempt, it shall count as one trial jump without result. A competitor may rock forward and backward, lifting heels and toes alternately from the ground, but he may not lift either foot clear from the ground or slide it along in anv direction on the ground. With these exceptions, the rules are similar to those for the Running High Jump. During a round the uprights shall not be moved. If the uprights are moved, they shall not be moved more than two feet in any direction. RUNNING BROAD JUMP. The length of the run is unlimited. Each competitor shall be allowed three jumps, and the three best' shall be allowed three more jumps. The farthest jump of these six jumps shall decide the order between the three. Jumps of the same length necessitate further jump- ing till a result is arrived at. The result of the further jumping determines only the relative position of those who are jumping again. If any competitor swerves aside at the taking off line, or crosses the taking-off line or the line extended, and touches 40 the ground in front of it with any part of his foot, such jump shall not be measured, but it shall be counted against the competitor as one jump. The jump shall be measured perpendicularly from the outside edge of the taking-off line to the nearest spot where any part of the competitor's body touches the ground; and it shall be of sea sand, if possible, and may be watered. The taking-off joist shall be of wood, colored white, 5 inches wide and not less than 2.6 feet long, and shall be sunk flush with the ground. The ground shall be moved to the depth of 3 inches and the width of 12 inches in front of the taking-off line. In all other respects, the rules for the Eunning High Jump shall govern, where applicable. If possible the pit shall be of sea sand, and may be watered. HOP, STEP, AND JUMP. Only jumps with alternate feet are counted. The competitor shall first land upon the same foot, which he shall have taken off, the reverse foot shall be used for the second landing, and both feet shall be used for the third landing. In all other respects, the rules for the Eunning Broad Jump shall govern. POLE JUMP. (a) The competition shall start at a height of 3 meters, and the bar shall be elevated as the judges shall decide. Each competitor shall be allowed three jumps' at each height, and the competitor who fails at the third attempt ehall be disqualified. A competitor may commence at any height above the minimum height. He must, however, jump at every fol- lowing height until, according to (a), he has forfeited his right to compete further. A wooden bar will be used for the cross-piece. The 41 cross-bar shall be of wood only and of uniform thickness throughout, and without weights The maximum projection ot the pegs shall be 3 mcnc 'The^Slrlhall be placed on pegs, and pegs to be w Iout rings and notches and of umiorm thickness th Thfe°nds of the cross-bar shall not project more than 6 ^trsrifa^^petitor has left the ground for the pur- "The^cCpetitors shall be allowed to make use of holes ^competitor must not. in the moment that he makes a the men d tii e uprights arc moved, they shall not be moved ■jump shall be level.

The discus shall not he less than 2 kilogrammes (4 4 TO Ss) in"nt, nd ™t lessen f centimeters (8J P T^ ^diameter- the thickness in the middle shall not inches) m diam etev ^ne thickness at the 42 All throws, to be valid, must fail within a 90 sector marked on the ground. The rim shall be of steel or iron and attached to the wood of discus, and measure 22 millimeters. The rim must be rounded. A throw will be measured from the point at which the discus first strikes the ground to the center of the circle, after which the distance is reckoned from the outer edge of circle. PUTTING THE WEIGHT. The weight of the shot shall not be less than 7.25 kilo- grammes. The shot shall be of iron and spherical. The weight shall be put from the shoulder with one hand only, and it must never be brought behind the shoulder. The put shall be made from a circle of 2.13 meters diameter. JAVELIN THRO WJ NG. The javelin shall be of wood with a sharp iron or steel point. It shall not be less than 800 grammes (1.6 pounds) in weight, and not less than 2.6 meters (8.5 feet) in length. The javelin shall, about the center of gravity, have a grip formed by a binding, 16 centimeters (6.3 inches) broad, of whipcord, without thongs nor notches in the shaft, and shall have no other hold than the above- mentioned binding. The throwing shall take place from behind a scratch line, properly marked. The javelin must be held by the grip, and no other method of holding is admissible. No throw shall be counted in which the point of the javelin does not strike the ground before any part of the shaft. The throw is measured from the point at which the point of the javelin first strikes the ground perpendicu- larly to the scratch line or the scratch line produced. 43 THROWING A 25-KILOS WEIGHT. The weight shall be a metal sphere with a handle of any shaped material and must be firmly attached to the sphere. Their combined weight shall be at least 56 pounds and their combined height shall not be more than 16 inches. All throws shall be made from a circle 2.13 meters in diameter. In making his throw the competitor may assume any position he chooses and use both hands. In all weight events, thrown from the circle, the com- petitor may touch the circle and the circle is measured from the outside. COMBINED COMPETITIONS. PENTATHLON. The competition comprises the following events: Run- ning Broad Jump, Throwing the Javelin (with the javelin held in the middle, best hand), 200 meters flat race, Throw- ing the Discus (best hand), and 1,500 meters flat race. The events follow in the above-mentioned order. Three tries are allowed in both jumping and throwing. In the 209 meters flat race, groups of three men are formed by lot. If the number of runners is such that after the groups have been arranged, one man is over to run alone, one man shall be drawn by lot from among the remaining competitors to run against him. All compete in the first three events, in each of which the winner shall receive 1 point, the second man 2 points, etc. The total points of the competitors are counted, and the twelve best (i. e., those with the lowest numbers of points) shall qualify to compete in the Discus Throwing. If the counting of the points results in a tie for the twelfth place, all such may start in the Discus Throwing. Points are counted according to the result obtained; in the event of a tie, the competitors need not compete again. 44 If thus two or more obtain the best result, these two each receive 1 point, and the next man 3 points, etc. The points of the competitors entitled to compete in the Discus Throwing shall then be counted again with refer- ence to their relative order in each of the first three series, their points being counted as if they alone had competed without reference to the placing of other competitors. The Discus Throwing and 1,500 meters flat are started and the points thus awarded. After the Discus Throwing, the six best compete in the 1,500 meters flat race, in which the start is simultaneous. If more than one tie for the sixth place after the Discus Throwing, all such may compete in the 1,500 meters flat race. In the flat races, the time for each competitor shall be taken with three watches. The winner shall be the one who, on the completion of the 1,500 meters flat race, has obtained the lowest total points in the five competitions. If at the end of the competition one or more of the competitors obtain the same number of points, their respective positions shall be determined by the valuation of their result according to the Decathlon table. DECATHLON. The competition comprises the following events: 100 meters flat, Running Broad Jump, Putting the Weight (best hand), Running High Jump, and 400 meters flat (on the first day) ; Hurdle Race (110 meters), Throwing the Discus (best hand), Pole Jump, Throwing the Javelin — with the javelin held in the middle — (best hand), and 1,500 meters flat (on the following day). The events follow in the above mentioned order. Both in the 100 meters and 400 meters flat races, as well as in the hurdle race, three or four competitors start in each group. On the other hand, in the 1,500 meters race, 45 five or six shall start. However, the umpire shall have the right, in ease of necessity, to make alterations. The composition of the groups is decided by lot. The time for each competitor shall he taken with three watches. The winner shall be the one who has obtained the highest number of points in the ten divisions. For a result similar to the best result obtained at previous Olympic Games, 1,000 points will be awarded. Smaller results are valued in accordance with a special table which will be issued at a later date. If a result exceeds the best "Olympic" result, correspondingly higher points will be awa rdnd. RUNNING AND WALKING. MARATHON RACE. The Marathon Race will be run on high roads. The start and finish may be on the athletic grounds.

G. SPALDING & BROS.*™ w\ (3 B y Standard Quality An article that is universally given the appellation "Standard" is thereby conceded to be the criterion, to which are compared all other things of a similar nature. For instance, the Gold Dollar of the United States is the Standard unit of currency, because it must legally contain a specific proportion of pure gold, and the fact of its being Genuine is guaranteed by the Government Stamp thereon. As a protection to the users of this currency against counterfeiting and other tricks, considerable money is expended in maintaining a Secret Service Bureau of Experts. Under the law, citizen manufacturers must depend to a great extent upon Trade-Marks and similar devices to protect themselves against counterfeit products — without the aid of "Government Detectives" or "Public Opinion" to assist them. Consequently the "Consumer's Protection" against misrepresentation and "inferior quality" rests entirely upon the integrity and responsibility of the " Manufacturer." A. G. Spalding & Bros, have, by their rigorous attention to "Quality," for thirty-seven years, caused their Trade-Mark to become known throughout the world as a Guarantee of Quality as dependable in their field as the U. S. Currency is in its field. The necessity of upholding the Guarantee of the Spalding Trade-Mark and maintaining the Standard Quality of their Athletic Goods, is, therefore, as obvi- ous as is the necessity of the Government in maintaining a Standard Currency. Thus each consumer is not only insuring himself hut also protecting other consumers when he assists a Reliable Manufacturer :n upholding his Trade- Mark and all that it stands for. Therefore, we urge all users of our Athletic Goods to assist us in maintaining the Spalding Standard of Excellence, by insisting that our Trade-Mark be plainly stamped on all athletic goods which they buy, because without this precaution our best efforts towards maintaining Standard Quality and preventing fraudulent substitution will be ineffectual. Manufacturers of Standard Articles invariably suffer the reputation of being high-priced, and this sentiment is fostered and emphasized by makers of " inferior goods," with whom low prices are the main consideration. A manufacturer of recognized Standard Goods, with a reputation to uphold and a guarantee to protect must necessarily have higher prices than a manufac- turer of cheap goods, whose idea of and basis of a claim for Standard Quality depends principally upon the eloquence of the salesman. We know from experience that there is no quicksand more unstable than poverty in quality — and we avoid this quicksand by Standard Quality. ^^^^C^Z^Ljf tytfu*' ATHLR ! 1/IBRARY A separate book covers every Athletic Sport and is Official and Standard Price 10 cents each GRAND PRIZE GRAND PRIX m& Spalding : js ATHLETIC GOODS ST.LOUIS. 1904 PARIS , 1900 ARE THE STANDARD OF THE WORLD A.G.
