e same side.

GRAND ROUND.--The grand round consists in running all the bridges, (the
central ones in both directions,) and tolling the turning stake, in
proper order; after completing which the ball becomes a rover.

HALF ROUND.--The first half round includes running the central bridges
and those on the left flank, and is to be made before tolling the stake;
the second half round includes the central bridges and those on the left
flank which are to be run in the reverse order between tolling and
striking out.

MISPLAY.--Playing out of proper tour; playing the ball of another
player, or continuing the tour after failing to make a point.

OBLIQUE BRIDGE.--A bridge accidentally out of perpendicular, either to
the horizon or to the line joining the stakes.

OVERRUNNING A BRIDGE.--A ball overruns its proper bridge when, in
attempting to run it, it passes it on one side.

PLACING A BALL.--Bringing it within the arena when driven out of it, or
removing a ball from a fixed obstacle.

POINT.--A blow by which a step on the round or a roquet is made, thereby
entitling the player to continuance of tour--that is, to another blow.

POSITION.--A ball is in position when it is in front of its proper
bridge, with a reasonable probability of running it on the next blow.
The position is good or bad according to the ease or difficulty of the
run.

PROPER BRIDGE.--The next "step on the round," the making of which
constitutes a point.

PUSH.--Shoving the ball with the mallet, allowed on some croquet-grounds
instead of a blow.

RE-ROQUET.--After roquetting a ball to roquet it again during the same
tour, a right acquired only by making a step on the round.

RICOCHET.--Two or more roquets made on the same blow.

ROQUET.--The contact of the playing ball with another ball under such
circumstances as to constitute a point; that is, provided both balls are
bridged balls at the time of contact, and roquet has not been made on
the same ball before in the same tour since the right to re-roquet has
been acquired.

ROQUET-CROQUET; CROQUET SANS PIED.--The privilege of the rover. It
differs from croquet in that the playing ball is not held with the foot,
so that when struck it follows the croquetted ball or diverges in
another direction.

ROVER.--A ball that has made the grand round, but not struck out.

RUNNING A BRIDGE.--Passing through the proper bridge from the front, or
completing such passage, one of the steps on the round, a "p
