EASTERN FIELD TRIALS CLUB. 



RUNNING RULES. 



I^OLLOWING are the running rules of the Eastern Field 

 Trials Club as revised for the trials of 1837: 

 KpEE 1, The management of the meetings for the An- 

 nual Field Tnals shall be intrusted to the Governors of the 

 Club, and with them lies the interpretation of the rules. 

 They shall decide upon all matters not provided for in these 

 rules. 



Rule 2. The iudge, or judges, shall be selected by the 

 Governors, and their names shall be publicly announced as 

 soon as possible after their selection. When a judge is pre- 

 vented troni attending a meeting or finishing 'it, the Gov- 

 ernors shall appoint a substitute. 



Rule 3: For all stakes, the names, pedigrees, ages, colors, 

 and distinguishing marks of the dogs shall be detailed in 

 writing to the' Secretary of the Club, to be filled at time of 

 making entry or entries. Any dog's age, markings or pedi- 

 gree which shall be proved not to correspond with the entry 

 shall be disquali fied, and all such dog's stakes or winnings 

 shall be forfeited. 



Rule 4. The forfeit money must accompany every nomi- 

 nation, aud the balance of the entrance fee must be paid 

 before the drawing. 



Rule 5. The Governors may refuse any entry they may 

 think proper to exclude; and no person who has been found, 

 to the satisfaction of the Governors to have misconducted 

 himself in any manner in connection with dogs, dog shows or 

 dog trials, or who is a defaulter for either stakes or forfeits 

 in connection with either thereof, or for money due under an 

 arrangement for division of winnings, or for penalties for 

 infraction of rules, or for any pay merit required by a de- 

 cision of the Club, shall be allowed to compete in any trials 

 that may be held under the auspices of the Eastern Field 

 Trials Club. 



Rule 6. Any objections to an entry must be made in 

 writing addressed to the Secretary of the Club, and will be 

 acted on by the Governors, whose decision shall be final. 



Rule 7. Immediately before the dogs are drawn at any 

 meeting the time and place of putting down the first brace 

 of dogs on the following morning shall be declared and 

 posted in a conspicuous place. 



Rule 8. All stakes shall be run in the order of the pro- 

 gramme when possible. Should, however, the competitors 

 or their representatives in the various stakes agree other- 

 wise, the order may, with consent of the Governors, be 

 changed. 



Rule 9. Dogs shall be drawn by lot, and numbered in 

 t he order drawn. Each dog shall run in the first series as a 

 brace with the next available dog in that order, and the 

 winners run in heats again in the order so obtained, except 

 as hereinafter provided. Any dog absent during the first 

 series for more than twenty minutes after his number is 

 called shall be disqualified trom further competition. 



Rule 10. If two dogs owned and handled by the same 

 person should come together in the first or any succeeding 

 series, the second dog so owned or handled shall change 

 places with the first dog not so owned or handled. This 

 change shall be effected in the order of running it' possible: 

 if not possible, then in the reverse order of running. If such 

 separation is found to be impracticable, or without benefit, 

 the running together of two such dogs may be permitted. 



Rule 11. If in any series of heats there should be a 

 natural bye, such hye shall run with the winner of the first 

 heat of the previous series as the first brace of the next 

 series. 



Rule 13. Each dog must be brought up in its proper turn 

 without delay; if absent more than twenty minutes, its op- 

 ponent, shall be entitled to the heat, subject to Rule 9. 



Rule 13. An owner, his handler or his deputy may hunt 

 a dog, but it must be one or the other; and when dogs are 

 down an owner must not interfere with his dog if he has 

 deputed another person to handle and hunt him. In mem- 

 bers' stakes every member must handle his own dog. 



Rule 14. The person handling and hunting a dog mav 

 speak, whistle to and work him bv hand as he mav deem 

 proper, but he shall be called to order by the judges for mak- 

 ing any unnecessary noise, or for any disorderly conduct; 

 and if after being cautioned he persists in such noise or dis- 

 orderly conduct, they shall order the dog to be taken up aud 

 adjudged out of the stake. An opponent's dog must not be 

 interfered with or excited. In such case an appeal should 

 be made to the judges. 



Rule 15. If an opponent's dog points game, the dog must 

 not be drawn across hiin to take the point, but if not back- 

 ing of his own accord he must be brought around behind the 

 pointing dog. Dogs must be hunted together, and their 

 handlers must walk within a reasonable distance of one 

 another. 



Rule 16, If a dog be withdrawn, with the consent of the 

 Governing Committee on the ground, from a stake on the 

 field or at any time during the holding of a trial, its owner 

 or his deputy having authority, shall notif v in writing, with 

 his name attached, the Secretary or one of the Governors of 

 the Cluo. If the dog belongs to either or any of those 

 officials, the notice must be handed to one of the others. 

 When a winner of one or more heats is drawn for any reason 

 other than defeat, the dog or dogs previously beaten' by him 

 shall not be deprived of competing for second or third prize, 

 if, in the opinion of the judges, thev have a chance to win. 

 No owner or handler shall be permitted to withdraw his dog 

 or dogs from a stake on the field or at any time during the 

 progress of a trial after such dog or dogs have been allotted 

 a position in any heat or race, without the consent of the 

 Governing Committee on the grounds; any such owner or 

 handler withdrawing his dog or dogs, without the consent 

 of the Governing Committee on the grounds, may be de- 

 barred from any future, trials, or be penalized at the discre- 

 tion of the Cl uti, 



RULE 17. If any person openly impugns the actions or 

 decisions of the judge or judges, or otherwise annoys them 

 during the progress of a trial, he may be debarred from 

 future participation in the trials, and ordered off the grou nds. 



Rule 18. No person other than the judge, judges or re- 

 porters will be permitted to accompany the handlers of dogs 

 competing in any heat, except owners of such dogs running 

 in charge of a handler or deputy, and they shall be permitted
