INFRINGERS ARE WARNED. \n\n\n\nTHE SPALDING TRADE-MARK IS THE \nFOUNDATION OF THE SPALDING BUSINESS \n\n\n\nty ii)n n \n\n\n\nSpalding\'s \nAtjiletic Library \n\nAnticipating the present ten- \ndency of the American people \ntoward a healthful method of living \nand enjoyment, Spalding\'s Athletic \nLibrary was established in 1892 for \nthe purpose of encouraging ath- \nletics in every form, not only by \npublishing the official rules and \nrecords pertaining to the various \npastimes, but also by instructing, \nuntil to-day Spalding\'s Athletic \nLibrary is unique in its own par- \nticular field and has been conceded \nthe greatest educational series on \nathletic and physical training sub- \njects that has ever been compiled. \nThe publication of a distinct \nseries of books devoted to athletic \nsports and pastimes and designed \nto occupy the premier place in \nAmerica in its class was an early \nidea of Mr. A. G. Spalding, who \nwas one of the first in America \nto publish a handbook devoted to \nathletic sports, Spalding\'s Official \nBase Ball Guide being the initial \nnumber, which was followed at intervals with other handbooks on the \nsports prominent in the \'70s. \n\nSpalding\'s Athletic Library has had the advice and counsel of Mr. A. G. \nSpalding in all of its undertakings, and particularly in all books devoted \nto the national game. This applies especially to Spalding\'s Official \nBase Ball Guide and Spalding\'s Official Base Ball Record, both of which \nreceive the personal attention of Mr. A. G. Spalding, owing to his early \nconnection with the game as the leading pitcher of the champion Boston \nand Chicago teams of 1872-76. His interest does not stop, however, with \nmatters pertaining to base ball; there is not a sport that Mr. Spalding \ndoes not make it his business to become familiar with, and that the \nLibrary will always maintain its premier place, with Mr. Spalding\'s able \ncounsel at hand, goes without saying. \n\nThe entire series since the issue of the first number has been under \nthe direct personal supervision of Mr. James E. Sullivan, President \nof the American Sports Publishing Company, and the total series of \nconsecutive numbers reach an aggregate of considerably over three \nhundred, included in which are many "annuals," that really constitute \nthe history of their particular sport in America year by year, back copies \nof which are even now eagerly sought for, constituting as they do the \nreally first authentic records of events and official rules that have ever \nbeen consecutively compiled. \n\nWhen Spalding\'s Athletic Library was founded, seventeen years ago, \ntrack and field athletics were practically unknown outside the larger \ncolleges and a few athletic clubs in the leading cities, which gave occa- \nsional meets, when an entry list of 250 competitors was a subject of com- \nment; golf was known only by a comparatively few persons; lawn tennis \nhad some vogue and base ball was practically the only established field \n\n\n\n\nSpalding \n\n\n\nEDITORS OF SPALDING\'S ATHLETIC LIBRARY \n\nsport, and that in a professional way; basket ball had just been invented; \nathletics for the schoolboy\xe2\x80\x94 and schoolgirl\xe2\x80\x94 were almost unknown, and \nan advocate of class contests in athletics in the schools could not get a \nhearing. To-day we find the greatest body of athletes in the world is \nthe Public Schools Athletic League of Greater New York, which has had \nan entry list at its annual games of over two thousand, and in whose \n"elementary series" in base ball last year 106 schools competed for the \ntrophy emblematic of the championship. \n\nWhile Spalding\'s Athletic Library cannot claim that the rapid growth \nof athletics in this country is due to it solely, the fact cannot be denied \nthat the books have had a great deal to do with its encouragement, by \nprinting the official rules and instructions for playing the various games \nat a nominal price, within the reach of everyone, with the sole object \nthat its series might be complete and the one place where a person \ncould look with absolute certainty for the particular book in which he \nmight be interested. \n\nIn selecting the editors and writers for the various books, the lead- \ning authority in his particular line has been obtained, with the result \nthat no collection of books on athletic subjects can compare with \nSpalding\'s Athletic Library for the prominence of the various authors \nand their ability to present their subjects in a thorough and practical \nmanner. \n\nA short sketch of a few of those who have edited some of the lead\' \ning numbers of Spalding\'s Athletic Library is Given herewith : \n\n\n\nJAMES E. SULLIVAN \n\nPresident American Sports Publishing Com- \npany; entered the publishing house of Frank \nLeslie in 1878, and has been connected continu- \nously with the publishing business since then \nand also as athletic editor of various New \nYork papers; was a competing athlete; one of \nthe organizers of the Amateur Athletic Union \nof the United States; has been actively on its \nboard of governors since its organization until \nthe present time, and President for two suc- \ncessive terms; has attended every champion- \nship meeting in America since 1879 and has officiated in some capacity in \nconnection with American amateur championships track and field games \nfor nearly twenty-five years; assistant American director Olympic Games, \nParis, 1900; director Pan-American Exposition athletic department, 1901; \nchief department physical culture Louisiana Purchase Exposition, St. \nLouis, 1904; secretary American Committee Olympic Games, at Athens, \n1906; honorary director of Athletics at Jamestown Exposition, 1907; secre- \ntary American Committee Olympic Games, at London, 1908; member of \nthe Pastime A. O, New York: honorary member Missouri A. C, St. Louis; \nhonorary member Olympic A. O, San Francisco; ex-president Pastime \nA. C, New Jersey A. C, Knickerbocker A. C; president Metropolitan \nAssociation of the A. A. U. for fifteen years; president Outdoor Recrea- \ntion League; with Dr. Luther H. Gulick organized the Public Schools \nAthletic League of New York, and is now chairman of its games commit- \ntee and member executive committee; was a pioneer in playground work \nand one of the organizers of the Outdoor Recreation League of New York ; \nappointed by President Roosevelt as special commissioner to the Olympic \nGames at Athens, 1906 : and decorated by King George I. of the Hellenes \n(Greece) for his services in connection with the Olympic Games; ap- \npointed special commissioner by President Roosevelt to the Olympic \nGames at London, 1908; appointed by Mayor McClellan, 1908, as member \nof the Board of Education of Greater New York. \n\n\n\n\nEDITORS OF SPALDING\'S ATHLETIC LIBRARY \n\n\n\n\nWALTER CAMP \n\nFor quarter of a century Mr. Walter Camp \nof Yale has occupied a leading position in col- \nlege athletics. It is immaterial what organiza- \ntion is suggested for college athletics, or for \nthe betterment of conditions, insofar as college \nathletics is concerned, Mr. Camp has always \nplayed an important part in its conferences, \nand the great interest in and high plane of \ncollege sport to-day, are undoubtedly due more \nto Mr. Camp than to any other individual. Mr. \nCamp has probably written more on college \nathletics than any other writer and the leading papers and maga- \nzines of America are always anxious to secure his expert opinion on foot \nball, track and field athletics, base ball and rowing. Mr. Camp has grown \nup with Yale athletics and is a part of Yale\'s remarkable athletic system. \nWhile he has been designated as the "Father of Foot Ball," it is a well \nknown fact that during his college career Mr. Camp was regarded as one \nof the best players that ever represented Yale on the base ball field, so \nwhen we hear of Walter Camp as a foot ball expert we must also remem- \nber his remarkable knowledge of the game of base ball, of which he is a \ngreat admirer. Mr. Camp has edited Spalding\'s Official Foot Ball Guide \nsince it was first published, and also the Spalding Athletic Library book \non How to Play Foot Ball. There is certainly no man in American college \nlife better qualified to write for Spalding\'s Athletic Library than Mr. \nCamp. \n\n\n\nDR. LUTHER HALSEY GULICK \n\nThe leading exponent of physical training \nin America; one who has worked hard to im- \npress the value of physical training in the \nschools; when physical training was combined \nwith education at the St. Louis Exposition in \n1904 Dr. Gulick played an important part in \nthat congress; he received several awards for \nhis good work and had many honors conferred \nupon him; he is the author of a great many \nbooks on the subject; it was Dr. Gulick, who, \nacting on the suggestion of James E. Sullivan, \norganized the Public Schools Athletic League of Greater New York, and \nwas its first Secretary; Dr. Gulick was also for several years Director of \nPhysical Training in the public schools of Greater New York, resigning \nthe position to assume the Presidency of the Playground Association of \nAmerica. Dr. Gulick is an authority on all subjects pertaining to phys- \nical training and the study of the child. \n\n\n\n\n\nJOHN B.

While there was no association at \nthat time, this meet has been regarded as the first meet of the \nInter-Collegiate Association of Amateur Gymnasts of America, \nwhich was formed in the following year. The following colleges \nwere present at the meeting in 1899: Amherst, Brown, Columbia, \nCornell, Harvard, Haverford, Lafayette, Lehigh, New York \nUniversity, Princeton, Rutgers, Swarthmore, Trinity, Union, \nUniversity of Virginia, Wesleyan, Yale, and University of Penn- \nsylvania. From these participants the following entered the \nAssociation which was formed in the following year : Columbia, \nHarvard, Haverford, New York University, University of Penn- \nsylvania, Princeton, Rutgers, and Yale. During the year 1910 \nAmherst and College of the City of New York were admitted \nto the Association. During the year 191 1 Lehigh was admitted. \n\n\n\nSPALDING\'S ATHLETIC LIBRARY. \n\nThirteenth Annual Intercollegiate \nChampionships \n\n\n\nThe Intercollegiate Championships were held March 20, 191 1, \nin the Yale University gymnasium, and were an unqualified \nsuccess. The management was excellent and the last event was \nfinished by 11 o\'clock, which is a record for promptness. \n\nAs was expected, Yale won the team championship with ease, \nbut the total of points was larger than was anticipated. They \nhad the best all-round team seen in several years and scored in \nevery event except the club swinging. \n\nRutgers repeated last year\'s performance and took second \nplace by scoring first and second in the club swinging. Univer- \nsity of Pennsylvania took third with seven points, scored by \nWoll and Kelley in tumbling and parallel bars. Harvard and \nPrinceton tied for fourth place with five each, while Columbia, \nHaverford and New York University divided up the rest. \n\nCaptain E. G. Clarke of Yale was the individual star, with \ntwo first places, which he won with beautifully finished per- \nformances on the high bar and rings. Everard won the parallel \nbars for the third time in his career and tied for second on \nthe horse, as well as taking second in the All-Round. Callahan \nshowed a fine assortment of combinations and good endurance, \nwinning second on the high bar and taking the All-Round \nChampionship by a safe margin. Belcher scored a second on \nthe rings and would have had a place on the horizontal but for \nan unfortunate slip. Ruge, who has won second on the \nparallels the past two years, dropped to third this year. In \ntumbling, E. A. Clark won third and would probably have been \nplaced higher had he stayed on the mat. \n\nCoryell of Harvard scored a good, clean-cut win on the horse \nas well as taking third in the All-Round. Woll of Pennsyl- \nvania, who took second in tumbling two years ago, came back \nthis year and tied for first with Moffatt of Princeton. Nelson \n\n\n\nSPALDING\'S ATHLETIC LIBRARY. 9 \n\nand Briggs of Rutgers repeated their fine work of last year \nand took first and second in the clubs, while this year Phillips \nof New York University had to divide third place with Bailey \nof Haverford. \n\nAlthough the number of entries was not as great as in some \nyears past, the standard of work was better in all events except \nthe horizontal bar. \n\nYale University Gymnastic Association \n\nE.

IS!! \n\n\n\nStandard Policy \n\nA Standard Quality must be inseparably linked to a Standard Policy. \n\nWithout a definite and Standard Mercantile Policy, it is impossible for a manufacturer to long \nmaintain a Standard Quality. \n\nTo market his goods through the jobber, a manufacturer must provide a profit for the jobber as \nwell as the retail dealer. To meet these conditions of Dual Profits, the manufacturer is obliged to \nset a proportionately high list price on his goods to the consumer. \n\nTo enable the glib salesman, when booking his orders, to figure out attractive profits to both the \njobber and retailer, these high list prices are absolutely essential; but their real purpose will have been \nserved when the manufacturer has secured his order from the jobber, and the jobber has secured his \norder from the retailer. \n\nHowever, these deceptive high list prices are not fair to the consumer, who does not, and, in \nreality, is not ever expected to pay these fancy list prices. \n\nWhen the season opens for the sale of such goods, with their misleading but alluring high list \nprices, the retailer begins to realize his responsibilities, and grapples with the situation as best he \ncan, by offering "special discounts," which vary with local trade conditions. \n\nUnder this system of merchandising, the profits to both the manufacturer and the jobber are \nassured; but as there is no stability maintained in the prices to the consumer, the keen competition \namongst the local dealers invariably leads to a demoralized cutting of prices by which the profits of \nthe retailer are practically eliminated. \n\nThis demoralization always reacts on the manufacturer. -The jobber insists on lower, and still \nlower, prices. The manufacturer, in his turn, meets this demand for the lowering of prices by the \nonly way open to him, viz. : the cheapening and degrading of the quality of his product. \n\nThe foregoing conditions became so intolerable that, 12 years ago, in 1899, A. G. Spalding \n& Bros, determined to rectify this demoralization in the Athletic Goods Trade, and inaugurated what \nhas since become known as "The Spalding Policy." \n\nThe "Spalding Policy" eliminates the jobber entirely, so far as Spalding Goods are concerned, \nand the retail dealer secures his supply of Spalding Athletic Goods direct from the manufacturer \nunder a restricted retail price arrangement by which the retail dealer is assured a fair, legitimate and \ncertain profit on all Spalding Athletic Goods, and the consumer is assured a Standard Quality and is \nprotected from imposition. \n\nThe "Spalding Policy" is decidedly for the interest and protection of the users of Athletic Goods, \nand acts in two ways: \n\nFirst\xe2\x80\x94 The user is assured of genuine Official Standard Athletic Goods, and \nthe same fixed prices to everybody. \n\nSecond\xe2\x80\x94 As manufacturers, we can proceed with confidence in purchasing at \nthe proper time, the very best raw materials required in the manufacture \nof our various goods, well ahead of their respective seasons, and this enables \nus to provide the necessary quantity and absolutely maintain the Spalding \nStandard of Quality. \n\nAll retail dealers handling Spalding Athletic Goods are required to supply consumers at our \nregular printed catalogue prices\xe2\x80\x94 neither more nor less\xe2\x80\x94 the same prices that similar goods are sold \nfor in our New York, Chicago and other stores. \n\nAll Spalding dealers, as well as users of Spalding Athletic Goods, are treated exactly alike, and no \nspecial rebates or discriminations are allowed to anyone. \n\nPositively, nobody; not even officers, managers, salesmen or other employes of A. G. Spalding \n& Bros., or any of their relatives or personal friends, can buy Spalding Athletic Goods at a discount \nfrom the regular catalogue prices. \n\nThis, briefly, is the "Spalding Policy," which has already been in successful operation for the \npast 1 " years, and will be indefinitely continued. \n\nIn other words, " The Spalding Policy " is a " square deal " for everybody. \n\nA. G. SPALDING & BROS. \n\n\n\nBy ^^^^^^y. \n\n\n\nOne copy del. to Cat. Div. \n\n\n\nOCT 31 \xc2\xbb\xc2\xab\xc2\xbb \n\n\n\nStandard Quality \n\nAn article that is universally given the appellation *\xc2\xab Standard" is thereby \nconceded to be the Criterion, to which are compared all other things of a similar nature. \nFor instance, the Gold Dollar of the United States is the Standard unit of currency, \nbecause it must legally contain a specific proportion of pure gold, and the fact of its \nbeing Genuine is guaranteed by the Government Stamp thereon. As a protection to \nthe users of this currency against counterfeiting and other tricks, considerable money \nis expended in maintaining a Secret Service Bureau of Experts. Under the law, citizen \nmanufi. -ers must depend to a great extent upon Trade-Marks and similar devices \nto protect -iselves against counterfeit products\xe2\x80\x94 without the aid of "Government \nDetectives " or " Public Opinion " to assist them. \n\nConsequently the "Consumer\'s Protection " against misrepresentation and "in- \nferior quality" rests entirely upon the integrity and responsibility of the "Manufacturer/* \n\nA. G. Spalding & Bros, have, by their rigorous attention to "Quality," for thirty- \nthree years, caused their Trade-Mark to become known throughout the world as a \nGuarantee of Quality as dependable in their field as the U. S. Currency is in its field. \n\nThe necessity of upholding the guarantee of the Spalding Trade-Mark and main- \ntaining the Standard Quality of their Athletic Goods, is, therefore, as obvious as is the \nnecessity of the Government in maintaining a Standard Currency. \n\nThus each consumer is not only insuring himself but also protecting other con- \nsumers when he assists a Reliable Manufacturer in upholding his Trade-Mark and all \nthat it stands for. Therefore, we urge all users of our Athletic Goods to assist us in \nmaintaining the Spalding Standard of Excellence, by insisting that our Trade-Mark be \nplainly stamped on all athletic goods which they buy, because without this precaution \nour best efforts towards maintaining Standard Quality and . preventing fraudulent \nsubstitution will be ineffectual. \n\nManufacturers of Standard Articles invariably suffer the reputation of being \nhigh-priced, and this sentiment is fostered and emphasized by makers of "inferior \ngoods," with whom low prices are the main consideration. \n\nA manufacturer of recognized Standard Goods, with a reputation to uphold and a \nguarantee to protect, must necessarily have higher prices than a manufacturer of cheap \ngoods, whose idea of and basis for a claim for Standard Quality depends principally \nupon the eloquence of the salesman. \n\nWe know from experience that there is no quicksand more unstable than poverty \nin quality\xe2\x80\x94 and we avoid this quicksand by Standard Quality. \n\n\n\ny^y^c^t^Ly^/^^ \n\n\n\nLIBRARY OF CONGRESS \n\n\n\nATHLETIC 771 B 006 BMJW \xc2\xab \xe2\x99\xa6 \n\n\n\nA separate book covers every Athletic Sport \n\nand is Official and Standard \n\nPrice 10 cents each \n\n\n\nGRAND PRIZI \n\n\n\nGRAND PRIX \n\n\n\n\nST.
