It a shoe strikes outside the foul lines before entering the pit- “ chers’ box it is a foul. A foul shoe shall not be scored or credited. . A ringer shall be a shoe that en circles the stake far enough to per mit a straight edge to touch both heel calks simultaneously. Whenever a players knocks off his own opponent’s ringer, such knocked off ringers lose their scor ing value and the player making the ringer is not credited with a ringer. If a player knocks one of his own or his opponent’s shoes from a non ringer position to a ringer position, the changed shoe has scoring value and credit for ringer for his own. When a thrown shoe moves a shoe already at the stake, all shoes are counted in their new position. In ordinary playing 21 points constitute a game. All shoes shall be within six inches of the stake to score. Closest shoe to stake scores one point. Two shoes closer than op ponents, two points. One ringer scores three points. Two ringers score six points. One ringer and closest shoe of same player scores 4 points. If a contestant shall have two ringers and his opponent one, the player having two ringers shall score three points. All equals count as ties and no points are scored. In case each contestant has a ringer the next closest shoe, if within six • inches of stake, shall score. If each contestant has a double ringer, both double ringers are cancelled and no points -scored. In case there is a tie of all four shoes—as four ringers, or all four shoes are equal distance from the stake no scores shall be recorded and the contestant who pitched last is entitled to pitch first on the next throw.
