Besides meeting their English cousins
on the latters own grounds. The Amerl-
can collegians have to conform with the
rules of the English Amateur Athletic
| Association, with which are materially
different in several of the events. to the
| American rules.
The rule which is thought most likely
to affect the Yale man seriously. espe-
cially in the longer runs. is the one re-
uuiring that all races be run with the
right arm to the pole or inside of the
track In the United States the running
Is all done with the left arm nearest the
inside of the field.
After arriving at the oxford grounds
the men praCtised the English style,
and, while they did not make any criti-
cism of the rule, there was no mistake
that they would have been much more
confident in running in their own way.
The hurdle racing is the second event
in which they rum under rules different
in every respect The Enslishmen have
this event on the turf, not on Il made
track, as in the United States. The hur-
dies used to-day are constructed SO as
to give each runner a set Of hurdles to
|
that il competitor knocks over one or
more of them. IL will in no wise inter-
fere with or assist the other men in the
race, The American hurdle is simply u
long strip or bar, placed across the
track, and resting on two uprlghts Oh
either side of the track. Should Il man
knock one of the latter hurdles down. it
would assist the men behind him.
In the field events the styles Are again
different In putting the shot the men
compete from a ten-foot square: in
America the put is made from
seven-foot circle.
In the hammer throwing. the English
men throw from a thirty-foot circle
where as the American rules call for a
!, throw from a circle of the same diane
ter as in the shOt-puttinG.
, The running broad jump is measured
from the "take-ofG'.. to the solid imprint
of the heel, under the English rules. the
American measurement is made from
inc "take-ofr'' to the break in the earth
o,king a diff renee in favor of th'
, Establishment of six or seven inches.
IA compliance with the rule of tho
Amateur Athletic Association OF Eng
land the Yale team Is compelled to wea1
shirts with sleeves reaching nearly t'
tneir elbows They wear blue with q
large "Y" on the breast.
The second "atring" of men Of each
team wear rod bands around their arm'
s to distinguish them from the men OF the
first line.
