Cincinnati, Jan. 3.-August Herr
man was reelected president of the
national commission at q meeting of
that body held at the Laughery club
at Aurora, Indiana, yesterday. Secre-
tary John Bruce, was also reelected.
The commission after q short business
session took action in the matter Of
prohibiting exhibition by major
league bali clubs in the fall. 1t was
decided not to interfere with the
rights of players and club owners in
this respect but to admonish those ar
ranging such trips to maintain as
nearly as possible the regular playing
strength of teams. Championship
clubs especially are urged to present
the strongest possible front and not
to make themselves appear ridiculous
by submitting to series OF deteats
because of a weakened batting order
and placing in the field a team out OF
condition. 1t was stated that the com
mission later in the day may frame
set of rules which will govern eX-
hibition trips On the other hand, 1t
was said that the commission would
be content with simply warning club
owners not to send out teams weak
ened by the loss of star players.
The schedule committees of the two
major leagues, consisting of Ban
Johnson of the American league, and
Barney Dreyfuss, president of the
Pittsburg club, President Lynch and
