The only point to be decided...in regard to the delivery of the ball, is what shall constitute a fair underhand throw, and to make a rule clearly defining this is now needed. Any delivery of the ball should be regarded as fair that is marked by a swing of the arm which does not allow the hand holding the ball to be raised above the hip. This admits of a clearly defined rule prohibiting overhand throwing and a round-arm delivery.
