The colTimlttee made tinineioiis chanRPS,
which will lie voted on ! the lenRtte at
Its meeting on Wednesday. They recom
mend anions other thlnirs that the pitch'

Imnttpil the vroidlno- of tnanj tules, some
of which were heretofore vague and nin
blKtious. Anions the rhanois reiolumend
ed are:
Utile No , lo make Hie pttehers' pHte
3t b (; Instead of K bv 4.
Utile No. II, aeftlon 'J, Is chnnRed lo read:
"The Bltirmiu ball ilellvercd by the pitch
er may be discolored bv him, but by no
other plajer. In t.o tloliiit the pitcher
shall resort to no other fneans than tub
biiiK the ball with his hands or doves."
Utile No. lit. section 2, l ehntiRed to
read. "No plaer except the i atelier nnd
Diet baseman shall be permitted to weal
padded or lined Kloves or mitts "
I'.ule No. 10 Is thus dellned' "A bunt lilt
Is a deliberate attempt on the part of the
haimnn' to punt a hull sloulv within the
Intleld so that It i-innot be lleldcd by nn
inneuier In lime to lettre the iiatsman."
It lie No. (3 is dimmed to ruid' "Thf
eonchers shall lie restricted to conchlnR
the bnse i tinner."
An amendment to rule I'm, section 5S,
reads' "It shall lip the dutv of an umpire
lo enforce the rule recnidlpss of u per
sonal opinion, as on their merits. This
shall upply especially to title C3 and sec
tion S of rulp ,.T. In the event of the um
pire's fallute to inforce these rules, he
hall be lineal I0 for each offense upon
the sworn statement of the captain of the
oppoilr.R team nnd two reputable wltue
e, which ollldnvlt. however, tmit be for
warded to the secretary of the league
within twent)-fottr hours fiom the time
of the offense."
llule fti, the eommlttee recommended
th.tt the constitution be amended lo pen
alize this rule as follows: "Any plavcr
other than the captain leavlnp his post In
the Held, or lenVIng the bench to fiuellon
a decision of the umpire shill bo Iliipd 510
by the umpire for the first offeno and for
second offense shall bo removed from the
panic and leipilicd to leave the panic
forthwith."
Utile W, section .", Is amended to lend.
"The umpire shall remove a ptaer for it
violation of section 1 of this rule and the
player so removed shall b lnellplble to
plav In n championship p.tmo for the next
three succeeding pnines."
The bat can now be of nny 7p nr
length, but It must be round nnd made of
solid hard .wood.
Another most important ehnnpe Is onp
whlph (onstltutps a foul bill. Horeifter
nil) ball that poes onto foul ground be
tween the lines ot Inses Is to be con
sliliipd roul whether It Is batted directly
to ibe pround oi In the air This does
aw iv with the old ten foot rule.
The foul tip was hat upon as follows:
"A ball tipped bv the batsman and ciupht
b) the catcher within the ten foot lino Is
a strike."
This Is a diieet concession lo the pitch
