TALK CHANGE FOR
BASEBALL RULES;
BUT DO NOT ACT
ST. UMJDS, March lifi. A St. I.oiiH
rnan suggests a change In the base-,
ball rules whereby three balls in-,
stead of four w.aild entitle a bats-!
man to his base, and a batsman whoj
fouled three balls after two strikes
hud bean called on him should be
declared out. lie frankly admits,
that lie has no hop ■ his suggestion'
will be adopted by the rule makers,
but ho thinks it is a good one, never
theless, and is eager to hear what
others think of dt.
The chief Objection to the proposed
changes in the rules, ■ ivs a local
expeit, is that there doesn’t seem
to be any need for them- The three
ball rule would adil o the burden
now borne by the pitchers, but in a
measuro these burdens would In:
lightened by the thr ‘ foul rule. In
oiher words, a -slight handicap im-,
posed on the pitcher- would he offset
by a slight advantage, which would
leawe the situation practically the
thine as it is now

RAWLINGS IS
SLATED FOR
TRADE ROUTE
McGraw Said to Be Consid

By DAVIS J. WALSH
NEW YORK, March 2(1 Johnnyj
Rawlings is (•> be wafted away on a,
ratio wind If reports aronml these;
l-artlciviair parts are to be credited.
Johnny is still tiuiito a ball player
ar.l might prove as handy as a apart?
iro to the Giants th'is season, but
McGraw is said to have other plans. |
He is quite uaamored of the ab'.l
Ity of a young short »t op named
Travis Jackson and it is claimed
that, if it comes to a show-down be
tween Travis and John, the (latter
will draw a one,-way ticket else
where.
To Accompany Seconds
In tpport of this belief, rumor
mergers say Rawlings has been
warn I to accompany the Giant sec
ond team on a harrowing tour of
Southern hamlets and Jackson elect
ed to ride the cushions wtith the first
team.
It Is significant that Ralph Shiti-j
ners enjoyed the distinction of being|
a regular on the training trip list!
year. lie is considered quite an
irregular now.
The pushing of Rowlings, if ever,
will depend on several conditions.
If, for example, Heinie Groh leaves
some doubt as to Whether his world's
| scries comedjack lacked permanency,
McGrow could not or won! I not give
j up Rawlings at the point of a gun. j
Will Want Hurler
| As a matter or fait. Rowlings will j
depart only in the event that no|
I pitcher is developed who can take a,
! day-to-day turn with Nehf, Scott and.
tocQuillan. The Giants' only tangible j
I weakness Is questionable pitching!
and it Rawlings is to h ■ tossed oaj
the market it will be witli the un-j
der-tanding that the club wishing to
do business fi r him must be willing i
to part with a pitcher ot some con
aide ruble standing in lice community.1
