_The Start._--First false start is penalized a yard; second, a yard more; third, disqualifies. Any foul during race or start disqualifies. A tape or strand of worsted is stretched (about four feet high) across the track; the winner must breast this tape, arms raised. Every other runner must cross the finish line. In a hurdle race the hurdles are placed 15 yards from start and 15 yards from finish line, allowing 10 yards in between each hurdle. The hurdler may knock down or over two hurdles and still win, but she is disqualified for the third. No record stands if a hurdle has been knocked over. All other rules for racing hold. In the relay race the first girl to run starts at pistol; she or each succeeding runner must touch the hand of or hand the baton to the following runner. The last girl running must cross the finish line. No runner may run twice in a relay. All other rules for races are the same. _Jumping._--Each competitor may have three trials, but she may take but one or two of those if she prefers. _Running Broad Jump._--It is a foul to touch the ground with the foot on the farther side of the take-off. This counts as one trial. It is a foul to balk, that is, to run over the take-off without jumping. The longest jump is scored. The distance is measured by a field judge from the take-off to the nearest mark left by jumper. _Standing Broad Jump._--It is a foul to take a preliminary spring or jump or to touch the earth in front of take-off with the foot. Measurement same as running broad jump. _Running Hop, Step, and Jump._--Fouls and measurements same as running broad. _Running High Jump._--Each competitor has three trials for each height. Unless she clears the bar without knocking it off it is a failure. It is counted a trial if the runner balks and does not jump. It is counted a trial to grasp the cross-bar. The bar is fixed at different heights; it is also well to measure bar in middle to determine exact height. _Standing High Jump._--No preliminary jump or spring may be made. Measurement is the same as in running high jump. _Pole Vault._--Each has three trials for each height. A vaulter is allowed to balk--that is, run without vaulting--but two balks count as a try. If the cross-bar is knocked off it is a failure. _Weight Throwing._--Each has three trials. The distance is measured from the toe board to the nearest mark left by shot. It is a foul to touch with any part of person over the toe board or out of circle. It is a foul to throw the shot instead of putting it straight out from the shoulder. It counts as a try to drop the shot. _Base Ball Throw._--Same as shot put. _Basket Ball Throw._--Same as shot put. _Javelin Throw._--Same as shot put. _Discus Throw._--Same as shot put.
