BROWNE.\\nTHE writer s experience with anything resembling hockey was\\nwhen, as a boy of twelve, he played the game of shinny\\nor shinty, as it is called in some places. In this a wooden\\nblock, a stone, a ball, or anything about two inches in diameter,\\nsufficed for a shinny, while a broom or umbrella handle or branch\\nof a tree of suitable shape took. the place of the present expensive\\nhockey stick, with its mathematically correct curves and dimension?,\\nand finished surface. Two large stones about three yards apart at\\neach end of the field or vacant lot, as it usually chanced to be, served\\nas goal marks, between which the shinny had to be forced.\\nThe number of players on each side was not limited. Every one\\nwith the gang or crowd at the time was expected to play; the\\nmore the merrier. The game was started by each side lining up\\nat its end of the field and then sending its fleetest runner to the centre,\\nwhere the shinny was placed, the side with the fastest runner get-\\nting first strike. The off-side rule was observed, shinny on your\\nown side being the warning cry, which, if not obeyed, brought a\\nblow across the offender s shins.\\nWhether shinny represents a stage from which the present game\\nof hockey evoluted, or whether it is a degenerate form of the latter,\\nthe writer is not certain. At any rate the early state of hockey in\\nEngland resembled shinny, and this is now looked upon as the\\nbarbarous era out of which the game has grown, under the fostering\\ncare of the Hockey Association of England. An important step in\\nthe development of the game was taken on the adoption of the strik-\\ning circle, from the inside of which the ball must receive its final\\ntouch in being sent through the goal. This feature encouraged drib-\\nbling and passing between the players and lessened the advantage\\nof heavy and reckless striking, as a ball driven through the goal by a\\nblow outside the striking circle does not score.\\nNovices at bullying who are at all nervous have a difficult time\\ncontrolling themselves sufficiently to calmly tap the ground and their\\nopponents sticks thrice in succession before making a strike at the", "height": "3180", "width": "2180", "jp2-path": "gamesoflawnhocke00newy_0005.jp2"}, "6": {"fulltext": "Spalding s athletic library.\\nj3\\n^^Ha^^J^I^^^^^H^^^^^I^^^B\\n^^^^H\\n^B^^^P^H:\\n^^T^^n 3^H\\nt ^-^^.jmm^ ^H^H\\nj|\\ni:^a,r\u00e2\u0080\u009e.aEk|? ^SHH\\nf\\nT i^paoil ^^^I^H^\\nIV^^ d^H\\n^^^^^l^^^^sH\\n^^^^^I^^^Hlir^^* ^^^^^^^H\\n^MP^^^ ^H|\\n^^^HOi ^I^^H\\nH| ^H\\nB^^BmKi gl [j^mBBIB\\n^^mM\\nBflU", "height": "3180", "width": "2180", "jp2-path": "gamesoflawnhocke00newy_0006.jp2"}, "7": {"fulltext": "SPALDING S ATHLETIC LIBRARY. 5\\nball lying so temptingly near. It is so easy to succumb to the tempta-\\ntion to avoid the last tap, and, instead, strike at the ball fine train-\\ning in self-control. The forwards are the rush line; the object of the\\nbacks is to feed to them; they do the aggressive work, while the men\\nin the rear are expected to act on the defensive. The position of\\ngoal keeper, although an important one, is the least desirable of all.\\nForbidden to leave his post, he must stand there, cold as it may be,\\nand occasionally, as the ball comes near, be on the alert to interpose\\nhimself between the ball and the goal. And the stronger his team\\nthe less work for him, as the ball will then be kept down toward the\\nopponents goal. He has great responsibility, yet with no opportunity\\nto distinguish himself in the aggressive work of the team.

It would seem but fair that all the players\\non the team should take their turn at this undesirable post.

The vigorous running gives .splen-\\ndid development of heart and lung power, even surpassing foot ball\\nin this respect. The player gets the wrist of a fencer and the accuracy\\nof a golfer, for he must be able to twist the ball quickly from his\\nopponent and to pick it up and dribble it along at his greatest speed\\ndown the field before he may liope to pass successfully to his com-\\npanions and earn the reputation of a good team player. The game\\ncalls for physical courage, though, perhaps, not to the same extent as\\nfoot ball still it requires pluck to dash in where sticks are apparently\\nflying rather wildly, at imminent danger to heads as well as shins and\\nankles. The element of danger, as might be supposed, is greater\\namong novices, for, as the player becomes more experienced, he\\nlearns how to keep his stick down, to hit the ball rather than the\\nother fellow s shins, to jump and avoid a reckless blow and to dodge\\na hard hit ball from near goal. He learns that reckless striking only\\nwastes time, endangers others, besides exposing his team to losses\\nfrom penalties inflicted by the umpire.

It seems\\nto be a game well adapted to Association use, and, judging from its\\nsuccess at the Springfield Training School, it should prove a populaj\\nfall game, especially in those places where foot ball has been dis-\\ncouraged because of its danger to untrained men, its expensiveness or\\nbecause of other causes.

The English people have played in this game\\nmore than any other nation, and at one time it became such an en-\\nthusiastic sport and was played to such an extent, that it became a\\npublic nuisance and a law was enacted forbidding the game, but the\\nlaw was soon repealed. A few years ago it was introduced into\\nAmerica.\\nThe game was introduced in the Sprinfield Training School by Dr.\\nMcCurdy in the fall of 1896, and after a season of play the English\\nrules were adopted, and so far as we can learn, this school is the only\\nplace in this country where the English game is played\\nThe field on which the game is played is a little smaller than a\\nfoot ball field, it being one hundred yards long and not more than\\nsixty nor less than fifty yards wide. The longer sides are known as\\nside lines, and the shorter sides goal lines. In the centre of\\neach goal line two upright posts shall be placed twelve feet apart,\\nwith a cross bar seven feet from the ground, which shall constitute\\nthe goals. The ball is an ordinary cricket ball. The stick is curved\\nj^tone end and must be small enough to pass through a ring two inches\\nin diameter. There should be eleven men on each side, but it may\\nbe played by six or seven. The men take their names from the posi-\\ntion they play, viz.: three forwards, five rushes, two backs or guards\\nand one goal tend. When there are less than eleven men take out\\nfirst a forward, then two rushes, and a guard, and so on.\\nThe following diagram will explain the best position of the men at\\nthe beginning of the game", "height": "3149", "width": "2160", "jp2-path": "gamesoflawnhocke00newy_0011.jp2"}, "12": {"fulltext": "Spalding s athletic library.", "height": "3180", "width": "2180", "jp2-path": "gamesoflawnhocke00newy_0012.jp2"}, "13": {"fulltext": "Spalding s athletic library. ii\\nNos. 1 2 and 3 Advance Forwards.\\nNo. 4 Forwards.\\nNos. 5, 6 and 7 Forwards.\\nNos. 8 and 9 Advance Guards.\\nNo. 10 Guard.\\nNo. II Goal Tend.\\nAt the beginning of the game and after each goal, the ball is put in\\nplay at the centre of the field, by what is known as the bully, to be\\nplayed as follows one of each side shall stand facing the side line\\nand shall strike the ground on his own side of the ball, and the stick\\nof his opponent over the ball alternately three times after which\\neither player may strike the ball, and the moment the ball is touched\\nit is in play.

It is a splendid game\\nto play when on an outing.\\n3. It is a true physical educator in the following respects\\n(a) It develops endurance, as there is plenty of running and this\\nwill also develop the capacity of the heart and lungs. It is a good\\ngame to precede foot ball.\\n(b) Agility is improved. When one is surrounded by several oppo-\\nnents it takes little time to learn that the quickest striker has the\\nadvantage.\\n(c) Self-control is also brought into action. The rules place certain\\nrestrictions so as to allow no ungentlemanly or dangerous play, and\\nin this, as in all competitive sports, the temptation of unfairness often\\nmeets the player, which if avoided, will not only assist his physical\\nmake-up, but the whole man.\\n(d) Accuracy is developed to a remarkable degree. To be able to\\nstrike the ball as you meet it from all sides, with a stick not more\\nthan two inches in diameter, is one essential to a good player for to\\ntake time to stop the ball with some part of the body before the stroke\\nis made, often means to lose the ball to an opponent, which accuracy\\nmight have avoided.\\n(e) Speed is certain to be increased by the very nature of the game.\\n4. While it is always possible for accidents to occur, the danger in\\nhockey is reduced to a minimum.\\n5. Skill is not essential to any player. This gives at once to\\nhockey the advantage over other games, as for example, in lacrosse\\none must be able to catch the ball in the lacrosse net before he can\\nbegin to play in base ball the pitcher and catcher must have a cer-\\ntain amount of skill to make the game interesting, so also with minton,\\ntennis, and the other outdoor sports.\\nRules for American Lawn Hockey.\\nJ.

J^\\nII d\\nSQUASH BALL is one of the more recent developments of the\\ngeneral Lawn Tennis family. It appears that Fives originated\\nby playing a tennis ball with the hand against a wall on lines\\nlaid out for a tennis court. This game is still used extensively. Later\\non a wooden bat was used, and the game was called Bat Fives.\\nSubsequent evolution was in the development of a racket like a tennis\\nracket, excepting that it was lighter, weighing between nine and ten\\nounces. Eventually side-walls, back-wall and a ceiling were added,\\nmaking an inclosed court. In this form it was called Rackets. Squash\\nBali is played in a Racket court and is really a variation of that game.\\nIt is growing rapidly in popularity, as courts are being built in our\\nleading athletic clubs and colleges.\\nThere are a number of different ways of playing and scoring squash.\\nThe style adopted in this book is one of the most practical and com-\\nmonly used.\\nDEFINITIONS.\\nAce A point won and scored.\\nCourl The whole building in which the game is played.

Accordingly, it occurred\\nto some bright individual that the ball might be tethered from an up-\\nright post, The ball upon being struck almost inevitably tended to\\nwind the string that held it around the pole. It was but a step beyond\\nthis to the production of a game two individuals standing on opposite\\nsides of a pole, each endeavoring to wind the ball around the pole in\\ndifferent directions. Thus, we have the popular game of Tether Ball.\\nThe step formulating the rules defining heights, distances, and the\\nlike, is the remaining one necessary.

No account need be taken\\nof the actual distances between these wickets, it being better to have\\nthem unsymmetrical or varying, A spot or tree must be chosen near\\nthe centre of the lawn and, in placing the wickets they must face this\\ncentre, as all shots made through wickets are towards the centre.\\nThe wickets should also be placed so that the next one in sequence\\nis in pl^-in view of the last one passed; that is, No. 3 must be seen\\nfrom No. 2, and No. 4 from No. 3, etc.\\nThe game consists of as many wickets as you are able to emplace;\\nusually eight, but, as in golf, you may have less,, and go over the\\ncourse twice to a game.\\nIt may either be played to count only the total number of strokes\\nnecessary to get through all the wickets, in which case, the player\\nhaving made the least number of strokes and passed through all the\\nwickets, is the winner; or it may be played by wickets, in which\\nevent the wicket is given to tlie player who makes it in the least\\nnumber of strokes and, where equal, no score for that wicket is taken\\nby either player.

B then follows with his stroke I. Now going to where\\ntheir balls are, the one farthest from the wicket plays stroke 2, and if\\nhe is still the farthest away, he playsstroke 3, but if stroke 2 carries\\nhim closer than his opponent, the opponent plays his stroke 2. This\\nis continued until both players get through the wicket, the number\\nof strokes necessary being carefully kept by each. If a player can\\nstrike with his ball the other ball, his stroke is free, and not counted.\\nThe other ball can be replaced or left, and he can either play from\\nwhere the ball lies or take it to any spot within the radius of a mallet s\\nhead from the ball struck. In no case can he assume to have passed\\nthrough a wicket. In playing with four players, two play as part-\\nners, like in golf, using one ball, and alternating strokes.\\nHaving passed through the first wicket, the others are made in like\\nmanner, counting all strokes made, first for each wicket and second\\nfor all wickets. The player having the least number of aggregate\\nstrokes, wins the game, if the game be All Strokes, and the player\\nwinning the majority of wickets, wins the game, if the game be All\\nWickets.", "height": "3149", "width": "2160", "jp2-path": "gamesoflawnhocke00newy_0037.jp2"}, "38": {"fulltext": "3^ Spalding s athletic library.\\nRules for Golf-Cfoquct\\n1.
