Sporting Terms in German

The process of clearing out all for
eign elements from the German Ian
guage has now been extended to the
vocabulary of sports. A long list of
words, mainly English, has been made
up by the committee in charge of this
reform, and Germans from all parts of
the country have been invited to make
suggestions for German equivalents for
these words. Some alterations have been
already accepted, among them being,
for Steeplechase, "lHindernisrennen;"
for Start, ~Auffahren; for Handicap
" Ausgleiehrennen;' for Maiden Race,
Rennen fur sieglose Pferde." Such
words as cricket and golf, it is admit.
ted, present difficulties, as do all the
terms connected with those two games
The trouble is to find expressions, with.
out too much length, which will accu-
rately say what is meant. But the great
est difficulty of all is with the word
"sport" itself.

it admits wide latitude of con-

given to anything that MIGHT

constructions have been placed
upon the statute, one by customs

other by the Board of u. ). Gen

appealed To for a third opinion
as to intent Of the law makers.
The blunder is more notable
because the language of former

clearly emphasizing the need for
unequivocal diction. The act of
1897 provided free entry for
