Urbana, H.. Jan. 30.-Bascball
games in the western conference Will
be peaceful and gentle If the new rules
of the National Collegiate Athletic as
ISOLATION made public TO-DAY are adopt
ed. The rules provide:
First-The catcher shall not during
actual play speak at al To the BATS
man except where the occasion re-
quires a bonafide word of caution and
in speaking to the pitcher, the catcher
must not use words rejecting or call
culating to reflect on the batsman or
any other member of the opposing
team.
Second-No member of either team
shall call or shout during the game to
any member of the opposing team. eX-
ger nor behave in any indecorous or
unusual manner.
Third-There shall be no oral coach
ing from the bench
Fourth-The so-called encourage
ment for the pitcher from the outfeld
should be stopped or at least mini
mized.
Fifth--The umpire shall warn q
player for an infraction of the rules
and then exclude him from the game.
Sixth-The students of the home
team must not cheer in any such way
as To rattle" the opposing team.
The conference board will not hold
meeting until June and it was con-
sidered unlikely that any action on
the rules would be taken to affect the
