Athletic Sport on the Famous Field at
Grasmere.
The sports field at Grasmere lies at
the foot of a characteristic ridge Of
fells, very narrow at the top and as
steep nearly as the side of house.
AS you sit in the grandstand this
ridge rises up in front of you.
Y On the bare, precipitous slopes of it
the guides race is run. On the YER
dant lawn on which the grandstand
is placed the wrestling matches are
held and those spectators who are not
lawn. There are coaches and car
riages, too, all around, on which peo-
pie sit and watch and have picnic
luncheons, and it all looks rather like
Lords cricket ground reduced in size.
In Cumberland wrestling the fall is
won directly man is thrown to the
ground. There is no need to pin the
shoulders down as in Graeco-Roman
wrestling. Here at Grasmere all Is
ended just when the Graeco-Roman
catch-as- catch-canners would be get
ting to the serious work. Were it not
so the Grasmere sports would last all
the year round.
Many of the men had their tights
embroidered with wonderful flowers
or designs in silk or wool-the work
Of their women folk, who were now
straining to get glimpse of how the
charm worked from the swaying
ranks of the people around the
ground.
