Book excerpt: Excerpt from Schoolyard Athletics, Giving Directions for Conducting Organized Athletic Activities in the Schoolyard This book is devoted exclusively to competitive events generally designated as track and field athletics and is arranged with the view of giving to the teacher who is not an expert the proper idea of the management of an athletic competition and also as a guide to the pupil com petitor. Nearly all forms of athletics, track and field particularly, can be conducted in almost any schoolyard, and the advan tages to the pupil of competing under proper regulations and rules must appeal to all. Athletics in the schoolyards must from now on be considered part of the curriculum. Properly conducted athletics in a schoolyard will mean a great deal for the school. The pupil also receives that preliminary training which is absolutely essential when he competes in track and field athletics outside of his schoolyard. Owing to the limited space in most school yards the list of events herein described is somewhat modified, but this can be the basis for all to work on who desire to improve the general athletic ability of the pupils in any one school.
