NEW BASEBALL RULES

Chicago, Jan. S.-A new rule to
abolish delays in baseball games
will be brought before the mag
mates of the American League at
their meeting tomorrow. The rule
is said to be favored by President
Johnson and a majority of the club
owners and will probably be passed
The acton grew out of the fine of
$500 imposed by Johnson, and sus-
tanned by the directors, on the
Cleveland club for using dilatory
tactics in a game at Detroit on
September IA. Later the club
owners voted to revoke the fine, but
not until a considerable sentiment
had been aroused in favor of a
stringent ruling that will serve to
prevent dilatory tactics and inten-
tional delays.
