  • The Proposed Prize for Mountain Ascents
    that, in the opinion of the Committee, none of the ascents which have been proposed for the prize, and the merits of which could, according to the stipulations of the competition, be taken into consideration, is of that exceptional importance which one has the right, as well as the duty, to demand for the award of an Olym­ pic Gold Medal; that the Committee is strongly of the opinion that there exists no satisfactory com­ mon basis for a comparison between different ascents, and that, consequently, a just award is impossible. The reasons on which the Committee bases this opinion are; 1. The frequent use of paid, professional guides in mountaineering, which makes it inevitable that the jury will run the risk of rewarding amateurs for what, in reality, is due to professionals, while it also makes it impossible to compare ascents carried out with, and without, assistance received from such guides. 2. The impossibility of comparing ascents of different character, such as, for in stance, a Dolomite rock-climb, a snow- and ice-climb in the Oberland, and an ascent in the Himalayas. 3. The impossibility of judging the conditions of weather and snow existing at the time of the ascent, factors which are of vital importance on every occasion. 4. The impossibility of correctly estimating the degree of safety with which an THE PROPOSED PRIZE FOR MOUNTAIN ascent has been made, it being evident that the sporting value of a climb must be considered very much diminished if the climber has exposed himself to ASCENTS. dangers that could have been lessened, or altogether avoided, by better judgment "7v'; ne part of the programme for The Fifth Olympiad was, and greater skill.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School RACQUET TRILOGY: LAWN TENNIS, THE WORLD’S FAIR, AND THE EARLY MODERN OLYMPIC GAMES A Thesis in Kinesiology by Brad William Hummel © 2020 Brad William Hummel Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science May 2020 ii The thesis of Brad William Hummel was reviewed and approved* by the following: Mark S. Dyreson Professor of Kinesiology Thesis Adviser Francisco Javier López Frías Assistant Professor of Kinesiology and Philosophy Michelle Sikes Assistant Professor of Kinesiology, African Studies, and History Jonathan Dingwell Professor of Kinesiology Graduate Program Director iii ABSTRACT The revival of the Olympic games orchestrated by the Baron Pierre de Coubertin of France and his supporters provided the opportunity for including modern sports and games in a global athletic festival. Lawn tennis, a nineteenth century derivative of ancient medieval ball games, was an ideal fit for the Olympic movement because of its strong social connections with the upper classes of Europe and North America. The only ball sport on the first Olympic program in 1896, tennis remained a part of the games for their next seven iterations, including the Olympics of 1900 and 1904. The first three Olympic tennis tournaments remain underrepresented in historical scholarship, but demonstrate that the sport was a source of stability and consistency during the developing years of the modern Olympic movement. The 1900 and 1904 tournaments coincided with two world’s fairs, but rather than yielding inferior competitions, were relatively successful events for their time.
