KILL MASS PLAYS.
Former Captain of Minnesota Gives
 New Version.

New NerS1on.
 Edward Rogers. former captain ot tlYe Minnesota eleven and coach of the Carlisle Indians in 1901. has made a number of suggestions which he says will kill mass plays and preserve loot ball as a permanent sport. Rogers savs that seven men should be in the line of scrimmage at all times and that no lineman should be allowed to play in the back field. He believes that the three back field men should he compelled to stand at least live wards behind the center rush. In or- der to establish open play Rogers de clare< that the first man receiving the hall from the quarterback should be inc one to run with it. provided he crosses tho line of scrimmage outside of thc last man on the line on his sitle. He further says that no man should he allowed to push or in any way as sisf the runner with the ball except by interference. and the runner should not rral, or lay hands on any of his men in onisr to pull himself ahead or to heIp himself to lis feet. IT the ruIes committee could agree upon . plan of this sort. especially regariing the seven men in the rush line. there would be no doubt about the success of the game under reform rules.

THE DIAMOND
ARE STILL OUTCASTS
4Red" Owen. and Doe Rei.ling Must Stay Outside the Breast
 works Once More.

New York, Feb. 1.-The tribunal of professional baseball, the National Commission, met yesterday in the office of President Pulliam of the Ma tional league and decided to refuse re Finstatement to players who had been ibfacklister on the charge of Jumping to the outlaw" league. Ban John son, pulIiam, August Hermann and Secretary Bruce of the commission were all present. In the case of Ritch- ie, whom the Holyoke club sold to the Brooklyn club, the sale was set aside by the commission and it was decided that Ritchie was a contract jumper and that he be cast into outer dark ness. Reisling, the Brooklyn pitcher and "Red" Owens, the Brooklyn sec ond baseman, both of whom took French leave of the, Brooklyns, were assigned to the barred class. So was Otto Deininger of the Toledo club.
 John F. Hagen, who was with the Baltimore club, applied for q rehear- ing. This was denied but it was de- cided that as there were extenuating circumstances in Hagen's case he is privileged to rehearing at the close of the coming season. In the case of Jimmy Sebring, the we'll known out fielder, who has been something of a thorn in the side of his National
 league employers by his frequent changes of base, the commission de cided that inasmuch as there had coina | to it knowledge that Sebring had sign
 ed and endeav0red to sign players of national agreement clubs for teams | outside the pale that he be notified to make defence before the National
 Commission within twenty days.
 The Columbus club of the American
 association was fined $25 in the case
 of Player Brown, who is it said, was
 disposed of by Columbus to the Bos. ton Nationals when there was a flaw | in the Columbus clubs title to the
 player. The claim of the Memphis
 club against the New York National
 league club in the case of Shortstor
 Babb was allowed. There has been 1 some question of price concerning this
 player since 1902. The New Yorh i club in turn has case against tho
 Memphis club. It has to do with a
 date. The New York club, it appears had arranged a game with Memphis for. March 9, which the Memphis club afterward, it is alleged. gave to some other club. The hearing in this
 case was continued.
 The joint rules committee of the
 National and American leagues will
 meet at noon to-day.

BOWLING
SOME GREAT WORK
Wooster Defeated Ca.i.o. on the Latter's Alley: and Break
 All Records.

There was scarcely room for an other person up at the Casino alleys last evening when the Casinos and the Woosters met for the fourth game os their series for the championship Of the city. Up to last night the Casinos had taken two of the three games played and it was expected that on their own alleys last evening they would take the fourth game and the championship, but they were doomed to disappointment. And it was not their fault, either, for the Casinos bowled a remarkable game in some re- spects, but the Woosters were on their mettle and the way they knocked the pins down last night astonished even their most enthusiastic admirers.
 That the Woosters were out to win that game was evident right from the very start They bowled as they never bowled before and the result was the defeat of the Casinos by q lead of ll9 pins. They did even more than this, for they smashed to pieces the city record for team bowling and sent the individual record for single string by the boards. The team score of 2,- SO5 runs away from any previous team record. and Olsen's single string of 62i beat all other records made by any one.
 Curtiss of the Casinos redeemed the reputation of his team by making the highest individual string last night with 223 pins knocked down. The Ca sinos took the lead on the first string by eight pins. In the second string the Woosters made the grand total of 1913 and leading their opponents by 116 pins. The Casinos braced up in the final string. but still they were beaten out by eleven pins in that string. The scores:
