New Baseball Rules In Brief.


There being a good deal of confusion
and misunderstanding as TO what are
exactly the proposed changes in the
baseball playing rules. they are given
briefly as follows:
The coaeh's box has been altered to
prevent the coach from getting nearer
than fifteen feet of first base. The
dead line runs through first and second
bases.
The umpire must watch small points
which hitherto have been subjects for
complaint from captains, such as the
diseoloring of new balls.
The captain must notify the umpire
of substitutes or changes in the po-
sitions Of players, and the umpire must
announce them to the crowd.
The captains must give the umpires
the batting order list at the home
plate before the game is called. and
players named must take part in the
game
If a player on the defense impedes or
stops a batted ball by throwing a glove
or mask at 1t the runner gets three
bases.
The umpire judging balls and strikes
is the chief, his colleague guarding the
first and second bases only.
Every player gets an assist who as
sists in putting out runner, even If he
makes the putout himself Thus he
may get the credit for a putout and an
assist at once.
The chief umpire may fine bench
kickers and eject them for a second
offense.

would turn professional if they were
guaranteed enough money a chance to

that has happened to the Amateur
Athletic union, which organization at
present has many athletes parading
around as simon pures.
It is interesting to note the number
of new runners that have come to the
! front since the new circuit was form
ed. In fact. it looks as If the old

covered, notably Fred Meadows. who
captured the fifteen mile race in New
York recently; Hans Holmer. the
sturdy Canadian; Red Hawk, the In

cent race, and Thure Johansen, an
other Swede, who broke all indoor and
outdoor worlds records for the Mara
thon when he ran the distance IN
hours, 80 minutes and 55 1-5 SECONDS
in New York recently.
Ad Wolgast. the new lightweight
champion Of the world, is in line TO
make small fortune. He has been
deluged with offers to go on the stage
and in all probability will be great
drawing card. Wolgast has announced
that ne intends to take things very
easy for the next few months. After
that he win take on Freddie Welch'

champ. So does Packy Mcfarland
who visited England in quest OF a mix
up with Freddie WEIGH, but the latter
funked out of the match. Murphy and
Mcfarland are sure that they can lean
one over on Wolgast's puss and send
him into dreamland.

difficult scenes plays up so wonder
fully and UNDERSTANDABLE TO Miss
Anglin's own performance II is the
latter who has made such a thing
possible by her clever management of
the business. She explains how the
bow is kept so natural and unaffected
as follows:
HThe reason. or at least one Of the
reasons, IS that I have never allowed
the child to read a line of his part.
In the years that have been upon
the stage I have had a fairly large ex-
perience with child actors and actress

regard to them. at all events Half the
