BALL GAMES
_10 to 30 or more players._
_Playground; gymnasium._
_Foot ball; basket ball._
All but one of the players form a circle, standing in stride position
with feet touching those of the next players to make a barricade for
the ball.
The odd player stands in the center and tries to throw the ball
outside of the circle between the feet of the players. Those in the
circle try to prevent the passage of the ball, using only their hands
for this. This play is continued until the center player succeeds in
sending the ball through the circle, when he changes places with the
player between whose feet or on whose right side it passed out. If a
circle player moves his feet in any way, he must change places with
the center.
The center player will aid his object by using considerable finesse,
appearing to intend sending the ball in one direction, turning
suddenly and sending it in another, etc.
When the ball has been sent out of the circle, the players turn,
facing outward, and the odd man tries to send it back inside according
to the same rules.
