A 1541 law in England that banned workers from performing this activity outside of their master's houses, except on Christmas, was repealed in 1845. (-5[1])The oldest public park in New York City is named for this activity, which was where an equestrian statue of George III was torn down in 1776. The modern form of this activity, which is descended from skittles, is called kegel (15[1])in Germany. The (15[1])title character of (*) “Rip Van Winkle” by Washington Irving sees the ghosts of Henry Hudson’s crew performing a variant of this activity in the (10[1])Catskills. In the lawn type of this activity, which is similar to bocce (-5[1])(“baht-chee”), participants try to roll a ball to a smaller one. For 10 points, name this game in which the objective is to knock over as many pins as possible by rolling a ball. ■END■ (10[1])
