right or the left foot, to oust the remaining player from the circle, who seeks to avoid all thrusts and attacks by running and dodging. Upon being "hopped out" the next five players in order enter the circle, and so on, until all players in turn have been in the ring. The hoppers must at all times keep their arms folded over their chests, and never use their hands, simply pushing with their shoulders.
Foot in the Ring
Two players, one of which takes a lunging position forward left or right, the forward foot placed in a chalk ring six feet in diameter, the other player begins his manœuvres hopping on one foot, also with arms folded, and attempts by adroit attacks (feinting and pushing) to displace the other player. The other player must defend himself as best he can. The party in the ring loses, when displaced; the other player upon moving one of his feet.
Rooster Fight
Similar to Foot-in-the-Ring, excepting that both hop, each trying to displace the other by shouldering. Each player stoops and grasps his own ankles; then shoulders opponent as before. The first to remove hands from ankles or be bowled over is beaten.
Hand Wrestling
Two players face each other, feet planted firmly, full stride position left, right hands grasped. Each tries to displace the other. One foot moved displaces a player.
Tug-of-War for Two
Same position as in Hand Wrestling; hands grasping a strap or handle. Upon the word "Pull," try steadily to pull each other toward the designated goal.
