Running broad jump Vernon Siple, THE LAW OF CLEAN PLAY' The Good American Plays Fair. 1. I will not cheat, nor will I play for money. If I shoul-d not play fair, the loser would lose the fun of the game, the winner would lose his self- respect, and the 'game itself :would be- come a mean and often cruel business. 2. I will treat my opponent with po- liteness. ' 3. If I play in a group game, I will play, not for my town glory, but for the successof my team and the fun of the game. 4, I will be ma good loser or a gen- erous winner. ileyi..

What should We h-ave? Let's ask your motherj, I said tio my friend. f Into the house we rushed and told her our trouble. Why don'-t you have boxing, she said, amd I will make candy and lefmonadefl We thought it was a capital idea.
