of the exponents of the American style
of skating. as opposed to the Swedish
style. which is now, according to eX-
perts. beginning to fall into disuse. The
new American style, or New York style
as some call it. consists in the figure
skater holding his arms close to his
sides and going through the different
rolls and curves without any attention
being paid to grace or ease. The Swed-
ish movements insist upon the skater
making longer and more graceful
curves and at the same time keeping his
body in graceful attitudes. The arms
are continually moved into different po-
sitions at every stroke of the skates.
DIR. John sandbloom, of Chicago, who
went tn New York to take part in the
event saws that the New York or Amer
loan method is prevalent now in the
cast and that the Swedish is dropping

host figure skaters | have seen, said
mr. Sandbloom. He is more graceful
than many others who affect the Ameri-

land, France, Germany and America.
Foot racing, either in the form OF
sprinting or long distance running. 80 he
said, has reached its highest perfection.
Not since 1879 has there been a single
improvement in form and if any records
are lowered in the future, il win be due
not to form. but 10 mere superior ability.
Running has reached its zenith. But the
field events, such as hurdling, jumping,
pole vaulting and throwing the weights,
have a brilliant future before them. Form
in these events has nowhere reached a
perfected state. With the exception Of
the crouching position at starting, no
permanent change has been made since
1879, and even the crouching start is no
better way OF starting than straight up,
knees bent. ready-to-go style. 1t was
introduced solely for the sake of ANA
teur sprinters, and was brought into
active use b.. the colleges because there
were so many novices at the game there.
The idea in the crouching start is this:
1t serves only to steady the spriuter.
1t does not offer him position for q fast
er start. With amateur %sprinIers the old
method of starting up was a hard one.
They were naturally nervous. and ii
was hard for them TO keep balanced. b.
the crouching start. they are given a
better chance to steady themselves.
This is the only reason why 1t Is now 50
popular. Nearly all the shorter distance
worlds records were made with the
standing start. The crouching start is
one of the few innovations that have
lasted. 1t has been a benefit In that 1t
helps amateurs and novices and those
new to the game. Professional runners,
amaturs, trainers and coaches have
worked on the stride, starting. finishing
sprint ways of touching the ground, etc,
but there is nothing new. Way back in
10 the s%printing game was perfected. So
was it with the long-distance game.
What records have been made since
that time have been only the fruits OF
this perfection of form. | do not say
that the records are at the lowest now
No; they may even go still lower. Bnt
it will be with the same form.
I'm these last 20 or so years there
has been a very rational change in train.
ing methods. A decade ago the sprint
er and long-distance runner trained
down to muscle and bone. Sometimes
it was skin and bone. He believed that
it was absolutely essential to train hard
in this fashion. Now. however, it is
vastly different. 1t is nearly the oppo-
site. The athlete tries to build himself
up-put on as much flesh as he can. !
do not mean try to get fat. But he puts
on weight, and when he begins training
he is in what is commonly termed the
pink of condition. l believe in plenty
of work for the Splinter. do not think
work will hurt any athlete; but work
poorly directed will kill an athlete
quicker than any other thing. Time
trials every day, such as some coaches
in the middle west here practice, is ex-
ceedingly bad for an athlete. 1t will
ruin him in time"

%In The Field Of Sports%


to show who the hero of the leag, @
was. The game vent to the c. Pardee
Works. There were four shut outs in
the league.
For those who do not remember. and
for those that were not in town last
year, we give an account of how the
league ended.
The American S. g. r. Co. team
came out first in the league and there
fore won the silver cup, which they
now have at the %company's Office.
The Raritan Copper Works came
along second in line. They had a
good team, and the only game that
they were out played quite some was
with the American S. & r. team, but
they made up when they shut out two
teams in games. They had 4 good
team all around, the ear having the
best kind of good players in the field
as well as in the outfield. They played
some fine games, shutting out the
Perth Amboy Terra Gotta team in the
last game of the series, when it
amounted TO who was going to win the
cup. Xhis score was = TO 0, and at
this game was Witnessed the largest
crowd that ever saw q game probably
in this city, outside OF the Marions or
Perh Amboys, and even at that, if it
didn't have as many people as there
was at the best attended game by
either the Perth Amboys or Marions,
il was certainly very close to it. 1t
was estimated that 1000 people saw
this game, and the city had seven po-
licemen on the spot to preserve order.
The G. Pardce Works came third in
line. This team played some good
games, but was greatly handicapped
by q pitcher, and then by q catcher.
From the start they hadn't a very
good pitcher o a good catcher, and
this accounts a good deal for the los
ing of some of their games. They al
so played some pretty games, one of
their games being a fourteen inning
one, as stated above.
The Perth Amboy Terra Gotta came
a long fourth. They had agood team,
especially a good pitcher (who was
claimed to be the best pitcher in the
league) and If it was not for the
Chesebrough Manufacturing Com
pany's team, who defeated them twice
during the season, they might have
easily won the cup. Outside of these
two defeats, they was only defeated
by the American S. g. r. in two very
close games, and one game they had
to forfeit to the Pardee Works, on ac-
count of their catcher being crippled.
The Chesebrough Manufacturing
Company's team played very uncer
tain, playing very good ball at some
games, and in other games, very poor.
They had two very good pitchers, as
well as one of the star catchers, but
the outield was greatly below VIVA,
it should have been. However, they
were the only team in the league to
defeat the Perth Amboy Terra Gotta
twice, and thereby losing their chance
of the cup.
The r. & II. Chemical Co. team
was very poor and played more for the
fun Of it than anything else, being
handicapped by a pitcher to a great
extent. They lost every game.
If the league comes out all right,
this year, it is hoped that it will be
witnessed by the same number of peo-
pie as last, and will no doubt. The
number of people that was last years
factory league games was 40, 900 at an
estimation.
