Milwaukee Man Picked Him for the

Raise in His
Salary.


CHICAGO, Feb. 10-Jimmy Collins. the
diplomatic manager of the Boston Amer
lean league baseball team, was in Chi
cago yesterday after players. He came
TO the city late Saturday afternoon and
met Henry Killilea, the new owner Of
une Boston club, here. The two held a
long consultation and arranged all Of the
plans for the season. Those players who
nave been signed already by Collins
were ratified by KilIiIea and the Milwau-
Kee magnate gave his manager power to
go ahead and get some more players.
There was no hitch between Killilea
ana Collins. At one time it was re-
ported that Killilea preferred Hugh Duff
~ as manager of the Boston team but
TINS report proved to be wrong When
uhe magnate and the manager met yes
terday killilea told Collins that he
wanted him for his right-hand man in
Boston and in half an hour everything
was arranged with perfect satisfaction
to both.
collins says that he Is sure that there
Is some good baseball material around
chicago and he will doubtless sign some
of it. He would not say that he is after
any Of the men who are signed by the
chicago National league club and
PRESIDENT johnson declared that none of
these men would be approached by the
American league managers.
Collins left town yesterday afternoon
Tor Buffalo. He would not give out the
names Of any of the men he was after
he said that while the Boston club did
not really need more players he had
heard that there were some fast ones
IN the vicinity of Chicago and he de-
clded to gobble a few of them UP and
give them trial. Il

Inns OF course, many times you get
nothing for your labor, but when you
do strike a star he is usually one that

his dressing room at a Brooklyn theater
last night:

for an equal division of the purse or gate,

Is the outcome of the statement that

what he can get out of the Shamrock III.
and probably none will be until the end

against the Shamrock l. another series
of trials shall be carried out over the
cup courses against the Shamrock IL in
American hands
BY this means it is hoped to show how

challenger such a tuning up as to assure
that she shall not suffer from being

WHEN A FOUL Is STRIKE IS
MORE CLEARLY DEFINED
BIZ REVJSERS
PITCHER MUST WORK QUICKER
Catcher Must Stand Within Ten
Feet of the Plate Throughout
the Game-0ther Changes
in Details.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Feb. 10.-Representa-
tives of all the baseball leagues Of the
country met here today TO revise and
establish the playing rules on a uniform
basis, and to have them so worded that
they may be easily understood by anna
tours and professionals alike.
The following message from A G.
Spalding was read: ''In the interest of
professional baseball and as an argyll
me- in favor of future joint confer
snces of rival baseball interests, l sin
cerely hope all participants in this Buff
fa1o meeting will realize their RESPONSE
bilities and harmonic individual views
for the special purpose of formulating
q uniform code Of playing rules that will
best serve our national sport
The rule which caused the most dis
cussion was section of rule "A, defining
when the umpire shall declare a foul
strike. The revision agreed upon pro-
vides that when a ball falls or settles
on foul grounds inside or on the line of
the territory described by a lire drawn
through first to third bases at right an
giles with an imaginary line drawn from
first to second bases and extending on
each side to the limits of the field, it
shall be arbitrary with the umpire to
call 1t a strike. It shall remain discre-
tionary with the umpire to call strike
or a foul when the ball goes into foul
territory outside the line drawn through
nrst ana third bases to the limits Of the
field
A line was added to section 1 Of rule 50
allowing the pitcher not more than one
minute to deliver not exceeding five balls
to warm UP.
Rule II was amended so that the each
er must stand within ten feet of the
plate throughout the game, and rule 3
is changed to conform with this amend
ment
To make rule 80 more comprehensive,
the words sin which case the umpire
shall call a strike" are added.
In rule 80 the word after is substi-
tuted for land" making the rule read:
IF the ball is thrown by the pitcher
to any player other than the catcher ex-
cept to retire base runner), after the
batsman is standing in his proper posi-
ton, ready to strike pitched ball, each
ball SO delivered shall be called a ball -
Section Of rule 49, defining when a
batsman is out was changed to read:
II, after two strikes have been called,
the batsman obviously attempts to make
foul hit, as in rule A. section 9.
All these changes will be recommended
TO various leagues for adoption.

Yale Would Put Athletes In Charge
of Regular Committee.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Feb 10-Yale
Is to reorganize the control OF her ath-
letes by putting them in charge Of a reg
ularly Established athletic committee.
The main features in the present system
of control of athletics at Yale will be
retained. but all the questions of ath-
letie polity will hereafter be submitted to
the new committee. Til this time ath-
letics have been controlled by the cap
tains and managers of the four leading
athletic teams, the football, baseball,
crew and track teams, with Walter Camp
the general athletic adviser or director.
The new committee Is not quite decided
upon, but 1t will probably consist Of the
four managers, who VIII represent the
undergraduates. and three alumni, one
of whom will be Mr. Camp a second will
be the secretary Of the university, Anson
Phelps Stokes Jr., and third who may
be picked from the New York alumni or
may be a New Havener. A representa-
tive of the faculty like Prof Wool3ay
has been suggested.
