posts, 81 feet apart, connected by a

Twenty-one feet from each goal Is
point post, 16 feet high. The imple-
ments of the game are the ball, made
with q cork center, bound with wool
and cased in leather, inches in
diameter and weighing ounces, and
the hurley stick, similar to a short
ice-hockey stick, held in the left hand.
Teams are composed Of II players.
The object of the game is, as in
hockey, to drive the ball between the
opponents goal posts. The ball or
Sitter may be caught by the hand,
but must be played with the stick.
In locked play. the ball may be
moved with the foot"
The historian Lecky reports that
in the eighteenth century "hurling
was practiced with a passionate en-
thusiasm." But an earlier mention
of the game is that in Carew, who
tells of it being popular in Cornwall
in 1902. Some writer's think 1t was
invented in Persia in prehistoric
times, and a stick game, much like it,
is known to have been favored by the
Greeks. The first English and Span
ish settlers Of the New World found
variation of the sport among the
AztecS and other Indian tribes.
Philologists trace ''hurling" back 10
a distant Saxon source, meaning 20
throw or dash violently"
