pressed at the meeting here can be
carried out will be through changing
the rules. and these. Of course, will
have TO be sanctioned at a meeting
of the rules committee.
Percy Haughton of the Braves be-
lieves that batting averages are all
too low. He believes that the base
ball public will appreciate more hit
ting, and the only way, as he sees it.
is TO regulate the pitching rules to
give the batsman a better chance.
The elimination of the spitball. the
emery ball and the use of resin is
offered as one suggestion 10 better
batting. Another is TO take away
one foul strike, and a third is 10 de-
crease the number Of balls that a
pitcher may issue TO a batsman from
four 10 three.
