PREFACE Sn

|l^iUiASSCl<bS4«««ms in this year's issue of Spalding's Athletic


Almanac will convince the most skeptical of the pronounced
superiority of the American amateur athlete. The important athletic
records of the world are now held by the Americans, which is cer-
tainly a state of affairs that must be pleasing to American athletic
followers. A decided change has come over the record books in the
past twenty-five years in so far as we are concerned.
The Athletic Almanac shows that there was not an im-
for 1876
portant world's best on record held by an American athlete at that
time, all such honors being credited to foreigners. When, many
years ago, however, the American athlete started to make his records,
our foreign cousins looked upon the same as suspicious, and many of
the records made by L. E. Meyers and others were not taken
seriously on the other side of the water.
However, when America started to send abroad for competition, its
crack men, it was then that our English cousins admitted that our

records were genuine. "When the English team of athletes arrived


here in 1895, accompanied by men who had studied athletics in
England all their lives and were given a chance to see our records
made, ihej ^vepj; hc)me,Goovir^ced thaMh$ AftiJ^rican records were a
thing to b»«re'r>©d nj3,ori'; ; ,"ll -

The very'foun'dation'of our athletic institutions should be the honest


maintenance of it^ r^^o^i;d Jbgok*. fj^r. the*simpJe reason that it is by
our record'^ 'tb'^ •cJu'rjatiikj/cS -aWljty is coitjjpired the world over.
Therefore Ve cannot* l)e loo* e'xact or too careful when a claim for a
record is made.
The Amateur Athletic Union has endeavored to, and is to-day, in-

sisting that all records shall be honestly made, and where there is a
shadow of doubt the record is denied.
Spalding's Athletic Almanac and all the time
will stand first, last

for honesty in records. We American athlete and


believe that the
the American athletic official will insist that our American records
will stand scrutiny throughout the world, and the sooner American
officials of doubtful integrity and pot-hunting athletes, who value
only a record for the prominence they get out of it, are impressed
with this idea, the better it will be for American sport and recordj*.

SWIMMING.
World's amateur records and recognized authentic performances, embracing
England, Scotland and America, compiled by J. H. Sterrett, Secretary
National Swimming Association.

Note Conditions under which amateur records are allowed. England, for
all distances up to and inclusive of 500 yards in baths not less than 25
yards long, with push-off turns; above 500 yards, in open still water, over
a course not less than 110 yards in length. This means that no perform-
ance with more than 3 turns for 100 yards, 5 turns for 150 yards, 8 turns
for 220 yards, 11 turns for 300 yards, 17 turns for 440 yards, and 19 turns
for 500 yards, in baths, nor more than 7 turns for 880 yards, 9 turns for 1000

yards, and 15 turns for one mile the recognized championship distances
would be allowed by the A. S. A. as records, all other performances being
put down as best on record for conditions that may exist other than
championship requirements. In Australia, practically the same rule applies,
while in the United States there are no specific conditions in the A. A. U.
swimming rules as to length of course, number of turns, etc., but the
recognized record authorities do not consider performances made in baths
less than 20 yards in length as records, nor open water performances in
other than still water or across stream, where no benefit is derived from a
current.

SPALDING'S WORLD'S RECORD


RUNNING SHOE

Made of selected kangaroo leather and extremely light. Nothing


finer could be produced at double our
price of $5.00 per pair.

M. \V. LONG, the world's greatest runner, holder of the world's 440
yards record, theAmrrican, English and International champion, wears
Spalding's shoes in all his races.
B. J. WEFERS, the holder of the world's record for 100 yards and
220 yards, made his records with a pair of Spalding's
Record Shoes.
JOHN F. CREGAN,the American half-mile and Intercollegiate
champion, and thousands of others attribute their success on the path to
the fact that they had a well-fitting, light, serviceable shoe to wear.
Nearly every American, Intercollegiate and Interscholastic record
has been made when the contestant wore Spalding shoes.

WHAT TO WEAR FOR BASKET BALL


A basket ball uniform
consists of a sleeveless
worsted or cotton jersey,
either plain color or
striped as desired ; a pair
of canvas or flannel padded
pants, and sometimes sim-
ply a pair of loose-fitting
running pants, although
padded pants are the most
desirable ; a pair of long
worsted stockings, usually
to match the jersey, and a
pair of rubber sole shoes.
A sweater is almost a neces-
sary article for a basket
ball player as there are no
end of uses to which this can be put. When not playing, it

should invariably be worn, or between plays. We strongly


recommend the use of our glove and wrist supporter, which,
while being made especially for foot ball,is particularly adapted

for basket ball players, combining a wrist and hand supporter,


A jock strap or supporter is an absolutely necessary article. A
complete illustrated list of articles will be found in our handsome
catalogue of Fall and Winter Sports which can be had on appli-
cation at any of our stores or will be sent free to any address.

THE SPALDING ••CHAMPIONSHIP" HOCKEY STICK


The Spalding 'Championship" Hockey Stick is made of the finest selected Canadian rock elm, and is
exclusively used and endorsed by the Victoria team of Winnipeg, Champions of the World, and by the famous
Shamrock team of Montreal, former champions. These sticks will not fray at the bottom where the sticks come
in contact with the ice, and will retain their shape under all conditions. The very important matter of weight and
balance has been carefully considered, and the "Spalding Stick" is much lighter, yet stronger, than any on the
market Forward and Defence Sticks on hand at all times.

J. rating indoor exercise is un
questionably that of vigor-
ously punching a light, air-irtflated
b;ig against a reliable, responsive
disc. It has. unfortunately, been

deterred from occupying its proper


place as a home exercise by its
unwieldy size, weight and general
unsuitability of the ordinary gym-
nasium disc and its many useless
substitutes,
Our Moline Platform is adjustable in height, readily attached to any wall, and the side bracket so arranged
that it touches three rows of studding.
Neat in design and handsomely finished, it in no w;iy detracts from the appearance of the room, does not
obstruct the light, and overcomes many
other objectionable features of the old
style disc usually costing double the
price.
The new and exclusive feature in this
platform offers a wide range of clever
combinations and scientific work. Each
platform, is supplied with everything
necessa^y for attaching to wall, and
crated ready for shipment.

exists when forcing a shell-boat through the water. As the machines are intended for general use, the pull can be
regulated at will by turning one screw, so that the weaker sex can use the machine with very little resistance;
while on the other hand', the resistance can be so increased that the strongest athlete can have the desired resistance.

Foster's Patent Used exclusivtiy in all the


hurdle events in the Stadium
of the Pan.° American Expo*

Safety Hurdle sition, 1901.

The frame is 2 feet 6 inches high, with a horizontal rod passing through it 2
feet above the ground. The hurdle is a wooden gate 2 feet high, swinging
on this rod at a point 6 inches from one of the sides and 18 inches from the
other. With the short side up, it measures 2 feet 6 inches from the ground,
and with the long side up, 3 feet 6 inches. The hurdle can be changed from
one height to the other in a few seconds, and is held firmly in either position
by a thumb-screw on the rod. It would be hard to conceive any device
more simple or more easily handled than this. The in /^ntion fills a long-
felt want, and has met with the approval of the best-known physical direct-
ors and trainers of the country.
