4 / Spalding's Athletic Library

Anticipating the present ten- dency of the American people toward a healthful method of living and enjoyment, Spalding's Athletic Library was established in 1892 for the purpose of encouraging athletics in every form, not only by publishing the official rules and records pertaining to the various pastimes, but also by instructing, until to-day Spalding's Athletic Library is unique in its own particular field and has been conceded the greatest educational series on athletic and physical training subjects that has ever been compiled. The publication of a distinct series of books devoted to athletic sports and pastimes and designed to occupy the premier place in America in its class was an early idea of Mr. A. G. Spalding, who was one of the first in America to publish a handbook devoted to G. Spalding athletic sports, Spalding's Official Base Ball Guide being the initial number, which was followed at intervals with other handbooks on the sports prominent in the '70s. Spalding's Athletic Library has had the advice and counsel of Mr. A. G. Spalding in all of its undertakings, and particularly in all books devoted to the national game. This applies especially to Spalding's Official Base Ball Guide and Spalding's Official Base Ball Record, both of which receive the personal attention of Mr. A. G. Spalding, owing to his early connection with the game as the leading pitcher of the champion Boston and Chicago teams of 1872-76. His interest does not stop, however, with matters pertaining to base ball; there is not a sport that Mr. Spalding does not make it his business to become familiar with, and that the Library will always maintain its premier place, with Mr. Spalding's able counsel at hand, goes wittiout saying. The entire series since the issue of the first number has been under the direct personal supervision of Mr. James E. Sullivan, President of the American Sports Publishing Company, and the total series of consecutive numbers reach an aggregate of considerably over three hundred, included in which are many 'annuals," that really constitute the history of their particular sport in America year by year, back copies of which are even now eagerly sought for, constituting as they do the really first authentic records of events and official rules that have ever been consecutively compiled. When Spalding's Athletic Library was founded, seventeen years ago, track and field athledes were practically unknown outside the larger colleges and a few athletic clubs in the leading cities, which gave occa- sional meets, when an entry list of 250 competitors was a subject of 'corn- ment; golf was known only by a comparatively few persons; lawn tennis bad some vogue and base ball was practically the only established field : ; EDITORS OF SPALDING'S ATHLETIC LIBRARY

sport, and that In a professional way; basket ball had just been invented; athletics for the schoolboy—and schoolgirl— were almost unknown, and an advocate of class contests in athletics in the schools could not get a hearing. To-day we find the greatest body of athletes in the world ia the Public Schools Athletic League of Greater New York, which has had an entry list at its annual games of over two thousand, and in whose "elementary series" in base ball last year 106 schools competed for the trophy emblematic of the championship. While Spalding's Athletic Library cannot claim that the rapid growth of athletics in this country is due to it solely, the fact cannot be denied that the books have had a great deal to do with its encouragement, by printing the official rules and instructions for playing the various games at a nominal price, within the reach of everyone, with the sole object that its series might be complete and the one place where a person could look with absolute certainty for the particular book in which he might be interested. In selecting the editors and writers for the various books, the leading authority in his particular line has been obtained, with the result that no collection of books on athletic_ subjects can compare with Spalding's Athletic Library for the prominence of the various authors and their ability to present their subjects in a thorough and practical manner. A short sketch of a few of those who have edited some of the leading numbers of Spalding's Athletic Library is given herewith

JAMES E. SULLIVAN President American Sports Publishing Com- pany; entered the publishing house of Frank Leslie in 1878, and has been connected continu- ously with the publishing business since then and also as athletic editor of various New York papers; was a competing athlete; one of the organizers of the Amateur Athletic Union of the United States; has been actively on its board of governors since its organization until the present time, and President for two successive terms; has attended every championship meeting in America since 1879 and has officiated in some capacity in connection with American amateur championships track and field games for nearly twenty-five years; assistant American director Olympic Games, Paris, 1900; director Pan-American Exposition athletic department, 1901; chief department physical culture Louisiana Purchase Exposition, St. Louis, 1904; secretary American Committee Olympic Games, at Athens, 1906; honorary director of Athletics at Jamestown Exposition, 1907; secretary American Committee Olympic Games, at London, 1908; member of the Pastime A. C, New York: honorary member Missouri A. C, St. Louis; honorary member Olympic A. C, San Francisco; ex-president Pastime A. C, New Jersey A. C, Knickerbocker A. C; president Metropolitan Association of the A. A. U. for fifteen years; president Outdoor Recrea- tion League; with Dr. Luther H.

EDITORS OF SPALDING'S ATHLETIC LIBRARY WALTER CAMP For quarter of a century Mr. Walter Camp of Yale has occupied a leading position in college athletics. It is immaterial what organization is suggested for college athletics, or for the betterment of conditions, insofar as college athletics is concerned, Mr. Camp has always played an important part in its conferences, and the great interest in and high plane of college sport to-day. are undoubtedly due more to Mr. Camp than to any other individual. Mr. Camp has probably written more on college athletics than any other writer and the leading papers and maga- zines of America are always anxious to secure his expert opinion on foot ball, track and field athletics, base ball and rowing. Mr. Camp has grown up with Yale athletics and is a part of Yale's remarkable athletic system. While he has been designated as the "Father of Foot Ball," it is a well known fact that during his college career Mr. Camp was regarded as one of the best players that ever represented Yale on the base ball field, so when we hear of Walter Camp as a foot ball expert we must also remember his remarkable knowledge of the game of base ball, of which he is a great admirer. Mr. Camp has edited Spalding's Oflftcial Foot Ball Guide since it was first published, and also the Spalding Athletic Library book on How to Play Foot Ball. There is certainly no man in American college life better qualified to write for Spalding's Athletic Library than ivfr. Camp.

I National League Ball

I . . ^ I A Is in a olass. by itself. It has no rival, even in approximate excellence. It has attained S ^ a degree of perfection in manufacture where the genius of man seems unable to conceive of g & any design for its improvement. The Spalding Ball has reached this high stage of develop- p A nient from very modest begmnings. Time was when American boys had to be satisfied g ^ with a base ball composed of a slice from a rubber shoe, some yarn from their dad"s woolen ^ g sock and a cover made of leather bought from the village cobbler and defU)' wrapped and g P sewed on by their patient mother, alter her day's work was done. But that time is no ^ ^ more; for, whatever may be true of tiie doughnuts and pies that "mother used to make," % all remember how they ^ —and we good were —the home-made creations of our maternal ^ ^ ancestry in the base ball line had to give way when the house of A. G. Spalding & Bros, p ^ entered that field, and long ago the Spalding " Official National League" Ball I i g g distanced all competition in the race for popular suitremacy. M p The game of base ball has become our National Game because its integrity has been § preserved through many years. For identically the same reason, the "Official I Spalding I " i National League Ball has won its place in the high esteem of all de\-otees of the sport. I g Like the game in which it is used, its integrity is above suspicion. § P It is well for the youth ot America to learn the lesson that while the cheapest things g g are very seldom the best things, tlie best are always the cheapest in the end. The price of ^ " " I the genuine Spalding Official National League Ball is $1.25 each—no more | ^' 4 , " g and no less. The market abounds with so-called League Bails," all listed at $1.25 each, § $ g for the sole purpose P of deceiving the purchaser and enabling tiie "just as good" dealer to g

work the discount scheme is I on the boy who not posted. I This is the reason why bright boys always insist upon the Spalding Ball and decline to ^

I accept any substitute. To many parents, a ball is a ball ; but to the American lad who |

knows, only a Ball is 1^ Spalding the genuine and Official Ball of the game, and substitution 1

of "something equally as good " does for to I not go with Inm, he has learned that become | a good ball player and get the greatest pleasure ball 4 P out of the game, he must use the same g that all the leading professional players . %

Durand-Steel] u Lockers^

Wooden lockers are objectionable* because they attract vermin, absorb odors,: can be easily brolten into, and are dangerous on account of fire. Lockers made from wire mesh ^t expanded metal afford little secur* Ity, as they can be easily entered with wire cut* ters. Clothes placed in them become covered with dust, and the lockers themselves present a poor appearance, resembling animal cages.

Durand-Steel Lockers are made of finest Some Ct ihi d,6 Durand-Steel Lockers Installed Irt th* grade furniture steel and are finished with Public Cymnaslums of Chicago. l2'xlB'x42', Douole Tier. gloss black, furnace-baked japan (400°), comparable Durand-Steel Lockers are usually built with to that used on hospital ware, which will never flake doors perforated full length in panel design with sides off nor require refinishing, as do paints and enamels. and backs solid. This prevents clothes in one locker from coming in contact with wet garments in adjoining lockers, while plenty of venti- lation is secured by having the door perforated its entire length, but, if the purchaser

prefers, we perforate the backs also. t.r The cost of Durand-Steel Lockers is no more than that of flrst-class wooden lockers, and they last as long as the building, are sanitary, secure, and, in addition, are fire-proof.

The following Standard Sizes are those most commonly used: double tier SINGLE TIER 12 X 12x36 Inch 12 X l2xeo Inch IB X IB X 3e Inch IS X ISx 60 Inch I2x 12x42 Inch 12 X 12x72 Inch ISx IS X42 Inch IS X IBX72 Inch Special Sizes made to order.

A Standard Quality must be inseparably linked to a Standard Policy. Without a definite and Standard Mercantile Policy, it is impossible for a manufacturer to long maintain a Standard Quality. To market his goods through the jobber, a manufacturer must provide a profit for the jobber as well as the retail dealer. To meet these conditions of Dual Profits, the manufacturer is obliged to set a proportionately high list price on his goods to the consumer. To enable the glib salesman, when booking his orders, to figure out attractive profits to both the jobber and retailer, these high list prices are absolutely essential; but their real purpose wrill have been served when the manufacturer has secured his order from the jobber, and the jobber has secured his order from the retailer. However, these deceptive high list prices are not fair to the consumer, who does not, and, in reality, is not ever expected to pay these fancy list prices. When the season opens for the sale of such goods, with their misleading but alluring high list prices, the retailer begins to realize his responsibilities, and grapples with the situation as best he can, by offering "special discounts," which vary with local trade conditions. Under this system of merchandising, the profits to both the manufacturer and the jobber are assured; but as there is no stability maintained in the prices to the consumer, the keen competition amongst the local dealers invariably leads to a demoralized cutting of prices by which the profits of the retailer are practically eliminated. This demoralization always reacts on the manufacturer. ,The jobber insists on lower, and still lower, prices. The manufacturer in his turn, meets this demand for the lowering of prices by the

only way open to him, viz. : the cheapening and degrading of the quality of his product. The foregoing conditions became so intolerable that, ten years ago, in 1899, A. G. Spalding & Bros, determined to rectify this demoralization in the Athletic Goods Trade, and inaugurated what has since become known as "The Spalding Policy." The " Spalding Policy " eliminates the jobber entirely, so far as Spalding Goods are concerned, and the retail dealer secures his supply of Spalding Athletic Goods direct from the manufacturer under a restricted retail price arrangement by which the retail dealer is assured a fair, legitimate and certain profit on all Spalding Athletic Goods, and the consumer is assured a Standard Quality and is protected from imposition. The "Spalding Policy" is decidedly for the interest and protection of the users of Athletic Goods, and acts in two ways: First—The user is assured of genuine Ofl^cial Standard Athletic Goods, and the same fixed prices to everybody Second—As manufacturers, we can proceed with confidence in purchasing at the proper time, the very best raw materials required in the manufacture of our various goods, well ahead of their respective seasons, and this enables us to provide the necessary quantity and absolutely maintain the Spalding Standard of Quality. All retail dealers handling Spalding Athletic Goods are required to supply consumers at our regular printed catalogue prices—neither more nor less— the same prices that similar goods are sold for in our New York, Chicago and other stores. All Spalding dealers, as well as users of Spalding Athletic Goods, are treated exactly alike, and no special rebates or discriminations are allowed to anyone. Positively, nobody; not even officers, managers, salesmen or other employes of A. G. Spalding & Bros., or any of their relatives or personal friends, can buy Spalding Athletic Goods at a discount from the regular catalogue prices. the This, briefly, is the "Spalding Policy," which has already been in successful operation for past ten years, and will be indefinitely continued. In otiier words, " The Spalding Policy " is a " square deal " for everybody.
