The picture of Pons here presented
shows the first position of the French
in attack. The arm is extended stiff
and rigid to its full length, with the
fingers of the right hand moving rapidly
with the movements of the arm, the
purpose being to secure a neck or back

well forward from the waist up, with
both arms moving loosely and easily in
front to secure hold. the whole figure
suggesting stiffness, in contrast to the
rather stiff and rigid posture of the
Frenchman.
