THE GAME IN BRIEF.
The object of the game consists In
each team endeavoring to send the
ball, by blow from a mallet, between
the goal posts of the opposing side and

Number Two is the aggressive work.

the ball forward to No. ! or sends out
the same to No. 3.
Number Three divides his time be-
tween carrying the ball forward and
thereby supporting No 2 or protect

Number Four is primarily the goal
keeper. His duties are to secure the
ball when the opponents force 1t past
2 and 3. He passes the ball forward
to the aggressive men except when the
opportunity opens for him to carry
the ball through to the coveted goal.
No. finds his greatest difficulty in
avoiding No. 1, who constantly en-
deavors to keep him away from the
game.

actively on the ball are constantly at

thus prevent interference with the
successful work of the man with the
ball.
