In each Sport the definition of the word amateur is given by the International Federation governing said sport. For any sport not controlled by an International Federation the definition of the amateur will be established by the Organiz­ ing Committee. The National Federation of each country, ruling any special sport, must certify on the entry formulas that each contestant submitted is an amateur within the meaning of the definition given by the International Federation governing that sport. This declaration must be countersigned by the National Olympic Committee of said country. This Committee must also declare that it believes the contestant to be an amateur according to the definition of the International Federation con­ cerned. Should the amateur standing of any competitor be challen­ ged, the International Federation of the sport will be sole judge. In case the standing of an amateur be challenged before the Games are started the question will be judged immediately and without appeal by a Special Appeal Committee at the head of the particular sport to which the contested man belongs. This Appeal Committee will judge in accordance with the rules as «et forth in paragraph 1 1 herewith, punishment to be meted out according to paragraph 15.
