haughton After
Baseball Reform
to Help Batters

Boston. Jan. 2-Suggestions for re-
storing the balance in baseball which
he contends has become lost through
the advantages enjoyed by the Gefen-
sive side Of the game were advanced
today by President Percy D. Haughton
of the Boston National League club
Haughton brought up the subject at
the recent meeting of the National
League, which voted to have rules
committee meet with "a similar cody
from the American League to consid-
er revision along this line.
The natural ingenuity of the Amer
lean sportsman is forever destroying
the balance between defense and at
tack in games said IIaughton.
In baseball the defenders have had
the upper hand. for several years. 1t
is harder to make runs now than few
years ago. Batting averages dropping
All along the line and the movement
in general, indicating there is some
thing radically wrong with the bal
ance in baseball.
Now what's to be done? What
changes. not revolutionary, will in
crease the probability of the base hit
and the earned run?
Here are six different ideas ! have
heard advanced by various parties iJ-
terested. There is merit in Each sug-
gestion.
"First-Move first and third bases
about four or five feet nearer home
plate, not disturbing the position of
second
"Second-Eliminate the spitban de-
livery.
Third-Let the batter walk on three
balls.
"Fourth-Have only one foul strike.
"F1fth-Have a much more drastic
balk Interpretation.
"Sixth-Reduce the width of the plate
by few inches.'
