In this game the two leaders choose sides
August 31, 2006 on 10:59 pm | In Sports Web | No CommentsIn this game the two leaders choose sides. This done, two objects–
they may be walls, trees or posts that stand some distance opposite
each other–are used as goals. Before these goals, the two armies are
drawn up in opposing lines. Then the captains, or it may be others,
lead off.
A word of caution may here be desirable
August 31, 2006 on 8:59 pm | In Sports Web | No CommentsA word of caution may here be desirable. These ‘passes’ must by no
means be regarded as being themselves tricks, but only as processes to
be used in the performance of tricks. If the operator, after
pretending to pass the coin, say from the right hand to the left, and
showing that it had vanished from the left hand, were to allow his
audience to discover that it had all along remained in his right hand,
they might admire the dexterity with which he had in this instance
deceived their eyes, but they would henceforth guess half the secret
of any trick in which palming was employed. If it is necessary
immediately to reproduce the coin, the performer should do so by
appearing to find it in the hair or whiskers of a spectator, or in any
other place that may suit his purpose, remembering always to indicate
beforehand that it has passed to such a place, thereby diverting the
general attention from himself. As the coin is already in his hand, he
has only to drop it to his finger-tips as the hand reaches the place
he has named, in order, to all appearance, to take it from thence.

It requires some practice to swim under water, but you can soon do it
August 31, 2006 on 2:59 pm | In Sports Web | No CommentsIt requires some practice to swim under water, but you can soon do it.
It is well to learn how to keep the eyes open under water. This is
no more difficult nor painful than it is to keep them open in the air.
This skill may be of great use in locating a body that has sunk for
the last time. Many such cases have been brought up and restored to
consciousness, under proper treatment.

Spring winds favor kite flying
August 31, 2006 on 10:59 am | In Sports Web | No CommentsSpring winds favor kite flying. This is another world-wide sport, and
it was popular with old and young in China–the land of the kite–at
the time when the Egyptians were cutting stones for the pyramids.
Everybody knows, or should know, what the great Ben. Franklin did by
means of a kite, though the kite through which he learned the nature
of lightning was of a model that is not often seen at this time. This
was the old bow kite, the kind that every beginner learns to make, and
which needs no detailed description here.

Beyond the heel mark the opponents of the catcher cannot advance till
the ball is again put in play. The catcher is entitled to the
privilege of falling back towards his own goal, as far as he chooses;
from the point selected he may take a place-kick, a drop-kick, or a
punt. Instead of this, he may choose to give the ball to one of his
own side for a ’scrimmage.’ The scrimmage is governed by special
rules.
Like tag, ‘I Spy’ needs no apparatus and no great study
August 31, 2006 on 4:59 am | In Sports Web | No CommentsLike tag, ‘I Spy’ needs no apparatus and no great study. Any boy with
keen eyes and nimble legs can play the game better than a man four
times his age. Of course, ‘I spy’ is not a game of solitaire. It needs
at least two boys, but it will be more exciting if there are five or
six times that number; the more the better.
