Charles H. Stelger, Chicago Herald Great fault Is found with the schedule as at present arranged. It is either a feast or a famine. The birr cities can hardly stand the drain caused by the long and enforced visits to the Knst and West respectively. In the borne an Lome scrb no fnult Is to bo found.

Sine ih pitcher was put back, tha more scientific features of the game have been brought out. More men reach bases and more opportunities are offer for stealing cases. Next to freo hitting, the crank revels in daring base running. To add interest to this feature of tho game, It In suggested mat the league at Its annual spring meeting so amend the base runnlnff rules that a runner w'no overruns second or tliinl or home, providing he touches tin base, be not declared out. That will add a new Interest to the game and not detlact from the sport In the least.

With the balk rule enforced, there will be more' and better base running. As It stands, the players are unwilling to take chances, knowing that the umpire is against them. Another move In tha right direction would be the insertion of a rule declaring every foul lip a strike. The player tries hard to hit the ball and simply tips It. Tho pitcher has put the ball over the plate, but It counts fur nothing.

He should properly have tho credit of a strike. The trapped ball feature, now that the umpires thoroughly understand and enforce the rule, Is not the bugbear that It onca was. Rowdy work on the bases should be punished by fine or suspension. Tho league cannot tolerate hoodlumlsrn on the field. The lnliolder whao wears a ham like mitten is a nuisance.

If lnfielders must wear mitts, let them be of mod ate size. Cross In the Infield, with his catcher'a mitt, has ruined many a prospective base hit. Tho big mitt must go. H. II.

Then tho Ithacans ru6lied the ovoid down te Crimson's twenty five yard line on a aeries of short gains around tho end bv Steinacher, Kelly nnd Beacham. In these plays Little Bloody Crowell was applauded by the spectators for his splendid tackling which cut off many a probable touchdown. Spaniard Steinaoher then bounced through the center for a twenty yard gain and on a fumble the woarers of the new moon secured the ball on their one yard line and snvod tbo likely touchdown owing to the bulldog like stubbornness which characterized this half on the part of Crescent.

Cornell made a pretty and long pass to Pratt, who punted to Conard. Tho latter was quickly downed by the swift footed Wingate. Stelnackor was then sont around tho ond for 15 yards, being finally tockled and thrown by little Crowell, with suoh force that Stoinacker wa3 out of the gatno for a short time, though he recovered and piuckily continued play.

Crescent. 0. Irving, 14; Brooklyn Hlgli School, 6. The Irving Foot Bali dub defeated the Brooklyn high school team at Eastern park yesterday by a score of 14 to 6. The weather was crisp and enervating, and the large attendance present argued well for a great outpouring of enthusiasm at the Crescent Cornell match this afternoon.

After the first few minutes' play It became evident that the Irving eleven was too strong and heavy for tho school boys. The latter could not hold their larger adversaries, and the ball was for the most part In high school territory. In the second half the school boys Improved In their play and managed to escape a shut out. The teams lined up shortly after 10 o'clock as follows: Irving. Positions.

With the ball again in play, the High School team made strenuous efforts to hold their opponents in check and succeeded until a minute before the call of time, when Irving secured another touchdown. Romig missed the goal and the first half ended with the score 10 to 0 in favor of the Irvings. In the second half.

High School played a more offensive game and soon had the ball over the posts for a touchdown, from which a goal was kicked. This made the score 10 to 6, and the High School followers were wild with delight. The batle became more fierce from this point and neither side was enabled to secure any advantage until a few moments before the end, when Romig made another touchdown for Irving on a double pass, but failed to kick a goal.

Continent on the Piny of tin; Crescent and Orange Teams. The Tribune says that those who love foot ball not because Yale, Harvard and Princeton are Its chief exponents, but for the sport itself, could not have asked for two bettor contested games than those of Crescent Am herst here and the Orange Lafayette game at Orange. It adds: About twelve hundred people went out to Eastern park, Hrouklyn, to witness the contest between the Crescent A.

C. and Amherst coll. ge teams. It was spirited battle from start to tlti Isli, superior team work and interference giving the victory to Amherst by the score of 0 to 1). The Crescent men were too confident of a victor early In the game, and when they realized their danger, it was too late to mend matters.

There was a great deal of rough play and several of the players were painfully Injured. The score was as follows: The Times calls it ono of the best games of tho season, and says tho feature was the tackling of the Amhersts, though the collegians won the game only after a hard fight. Tho World has this to say: The contest was marked by most biased umpiring. George P. Sanford, the Yale athlete, who la a member of the Crescents, was named for the position and accepted.

His work can best be described as audacious. He not only gave his team the benefit of nearly all decisions, but he forgot himself so far as to openly coaeli them throughout. He was so busy giving instructions to the Crescent backs In the second half that he had no time to watch tbe llagrant holding In the lino and off side play of the Brooklyn men, and toward the close everything went. The spectators were edified by seeing the official wrangling and expostulating with the Crescent players whenever one of their moves went wrong, and the whole thing would have been farcical had It not been disgraceful. In addition, Harry Beeeher was on tho field a good part of the time, coaching his men along.

All in all, the collegians deserve a great deal of credit for winning the game against the odds. The Herald says that slugging and plenty of it distinguished the game. It adds: The collegians did the better foot ball playing. It was free from much of the unquestionable plav used by the Crescents. The Amherst team showed a heavy and strong line.

The attempts of the Crescent men to eo through the center for gains were dismal failures. Try as they might. the Ilrooklynltes could not force the sturdv collegians to give away at that point. Around the ends alone were tho Crescents able to gain ground, and then the gains were small. The Interference work of the visitors was excellent.

Their line breaking also was good, but they fumbled the ball badly at times. The Cres cent work was of a nature not calculated te inspire confidence in their ability to best th Orange Athletic club eleven In their coming championship game. They played loosely and despite the fact that G. P. Sanford coached them throughout the contest, they were unable to win.

TUAPPER MILLS A Three Cornered Itird IVIatch at Dexter Park. At Dexter park yesterday William Mills, James A. Hollwell and Hank Gilbert shot a match at 100 birds each, handicap, under modified Hurlingham rules. Mills has trapped pigeons on the same grounds for nearly thirty years and is an expert with the shotgun. Hollwell is also a veteran, whtlo Gilbert is practically a novice, although ho showed up well and held his own until tho last batch of twenty five birds, when he broke and missed several easy ones.

Mills was placed at the 30 yard mark, Holwell at 28 and Gilbert at 25. Mills was the first at the traps and kept on scoring to the twenty sixth round, when he missed. Ho lost his thirty seventh bird and his sixty sixth and then kept on scoring until tho ninety eighth round, when he again missed. His total for tbe day was DC. Holwell missed two birds in bis first batch of twenty five, three in tho second, ono in the third and three in the last, giving him a total of 91.

Gilbert scored 84. JhlojiN' Itemnrkable Record. All the crack rifle shots In this vicinity took part yesterday in tho one hundred shot championship at Deerslayer, WIssel's Cypress Hills park, under the auspices of tho Zettler Rifle club, and the shooting was done off hand, on the American twenty five ring target, at the 200 yard range. Tho strong wind, howover; was unfavorable for high scores. Frederick C.

Ross, that young champion of champions, who stands without an equa1 to day with the rifle, won the handsome gold medal, scoring 2,147 points out of a possible 2,500.

"Wins the Day From Crescent by 22 to 0.

Tho name Team Did Not Tiny Low Enouirh, While the Collegians Taekied In Perfect form fteaehnin's Great linn of 85 Yards Hi: Elggest Crowd of the Season. CrosceDt, crippled but confident, linod up against the doughty 'varsity kickers from Ithaca and Rftnr two hard played halve retired crestfallen, moro cripplod. Cornell 22 and Crescent 0 was very different from what they expected the outoome would be, but the champions Brooklyn's Toot ball lnurola were outclassed all around. That is tho simple truth of it and the Orange piayorB who looked on irom tho side lines grinned gloefully and told one another that unless tho Crescents got into bettor form they would make an easy me.il for tho Jersey men, who now hold the Eaglo cup. Such a crowd as that which attended the election day game has not been seen at Eastern park at any foot ball contest this season.

The pavilion was black with spectators and there was also a considerable sprinkling on the grand stand, while fully two or three thousand stood along the ropes. In tho carriage grounds were about two dozen vehicles, including Mr. Erharfs tandem and tlio body brakes of George I'ahys and J. R. Wood, which have been seen at every game oa tho Eastern park gridiron this season.

A couple of small parties of saddle riders and half a dozen cyclers also helped to vary the life of tho cene. The Cornell contingency was a large one and, as is always tho case when a team from their college is in the metropolitan district, its rooting force is heavily recruited from Brooklyn. Many Cornell alumni residing in Brooklyn wore present and dozens oitho contemporary students took with them Brooklyn girls who oa other days wear Crescent colors but who for this occasion pinned on white and crimson ribbons. Crimson Hags with the collogo name in bold white letters wore waved in all parts of the pavilion and alter tho first touchdown had been scored by the Ithacans, Cornell fairly took possession. It was uphill rooting for the Crescent contingency, but the supporters of the colors that have scored so many victories never faltered, but choerod and cheered again in tho hope of rousing tho team on to scoring.

'i'he oircumstanco of both teams wearing tho same colors made it very difficult for the spectators who wore on tho stands to toll on which side a player was, or. rather, It would have been difficult had the game not been so ono Bided that everyone soon came to know that it was Cornell making every gain and Crescent being abruptly checked. The star play of the dny wa a run of 85 yards and a touchdown by Beacham, tho wonderlul leftend rusher of Cornell. As Beacham is a Brooklyn boy, bis performance met with a storm of applause. It occurred a few minutei alter the game started and from that timo on the Crescents seemed to bo demoralized.

Before that Cornell had played rather pooriy, making several fumbles, but from the time Beacham scored everything went Cornell's way. Crescent seldom got hold of the ball, and when she did could make no headway through the Cornell lino, which seemed a stanch as a fortress. Beacham's running with the ball was a feature of Cornell's game all through. It is one of the team's pet phiys. Both ends of tho visitor' lines wore very fast and tho line closed up Jiko a fan for a scrimmage.

It was superb team play nnd against it tho Crescents were almost helpless. The Crescents' greatest disadvantage was in being shut off from their favorite plays around tho end. The Cornell ends were altogether too fast for the home players and cut them off every time. Tho number of Injuries was largo, but the damages done were all slight. The Crescent team was almost entirely changed by tho substitutions.

A conspicuous fault of Crescent's work was that tho men played too high. In tbo secopd half, when they did their only effective work, this fault was considerably improved. Had tbo homo team put up the game in the first half that they did toward tho end of tho second they might havo scored, but it is very doubtful, as the Cornell team was weakened in the second half by giving some of the side liners a chance for exorciso after the game was found to be so easy. All the saoring was done in tho first half. nlthough Cornell got the pigskin to within ono yard of Crescent's goal line early in the second half and thoro lost it.

After that the play was pretty mucn an in Cornells territory to the end. or crescent, Crowell did great work, irprising all by the style in which ho tackled some of tho big fellows on the other eide.

McLougblin, formerly manager of the Brooklyn high school team, was oathe side line during the first half, but took his regular rjlnee us Cornell's left tackle in the second and put up a snappy play.

Ho is another valuable acquisition to Corneil from Brooklyn. The wisdom of Cornell in choosing the north end ol tho Hold was shown when they came to kick their goals. Ohl missed tbo first goal but made the other three kicking with the wind. Had he been, obliged to kick against it, he would hardly havo made one. At 3 o'clock P.

U. Cornell won the toss and chose the north end of the field, Cresont taking the ball. Zimmerman kicked oil for Crescent and Ohl juggled the ball but just managed to punt it back to Zimmerman, before being tackled by Wingato. Whitney returned to Ohl who was tackled by Walker after a ton yard run. In tho scrimmage, Kelly fumbled the ball and Wingato cleverly fell on It.

And now it looked as if Crescent would do something as tloodwln started off with a run around Cornell's left end for 10 yards. Zimmerman and Pratt tried tho onds and line and Cornell gained tho ball on a punt to Ohl by Zimmerman. Beacham took tho bull on tho next lino up and dashed through Crescent guard and tackle under splendid interference and n.ado the llrst touchdown after a beautiful run of 85 yards. Billy Ohl missed the goal. Scoro 4 to 0 in faror of Cornoll, after 5 minutes' play.

At the next kick off Zimmerman kicked to Wyckoff, who made a 23 yard run, which was followed by a splendid run of 30 yards by Dyer. During the following scrimmage Ohl emerged from tho pile and made a long run for a touchdown, but ho was brought back for a foul, nd the ball went to Crescent. Cornoll gained tho ball on a fumble and Dyer made a 20 yard run. Beacham and Dyer adddod gains unaor good interlorunce, tho latter losing a touchdown on account of an excellent tackle by Goodwin. Ohl was sont through the center for 5 yards and Beacham ran around right end for the second touchdown.

Ohl succeeded in kicking the goal and and the score was 10 to 0 in Cornell's luvor altor eight minutes ploy. Zimmerman again kicked oil, sendi ng a low ground gaiuor to WyokoIT, who started at tho same Instant he picked tho ball up and made a 10 yard gain before being tackled by Baldwin. Kelly ihoa went between guard and tackle for 7 yards, which was duplicated oy Dyer. Cornell then received 10 yards for offside play. Warren mado 5 moro yards.

Dyer sturted for tho left end, but was overhauled and thrown heavily by Baldwin. Zimmerman broko through on Ohl, and Crescent gained the ball on a fumble, but soon lost it on a like fumble. Dyer gained the ball nnd made a .10 yard run for tho third touchdown after about 10 minutes' play. Ohl kickod the goal ana the scoro was: Cornoll Crescent 6.

Weil Kr.ovrii fTrlters Suggest Valuable Changes for the Good of tin; Game Election of Officer, and the Award of Uie Pennant to lialtlmnre (he Only Things Cerlain.

Tho league magnates will hold their twentieth ai.nual meeting at tbe Fifth avenue hotel. New York, next Wednesday and Thursday. What they propose to do on many important questions that havo been discussed by base ball writers throughout the country Is only a matter of speculation, but that there are many matters of the utmose gravity to be discussed is as sure as tho fact that there will bo another pennant race. At present this tduch is knoft'n: That the magnates will reelect E. Young president, secretary and treasurer, that the pennant will be officially awarded to Baltimore, a new board of directors will be appointed and a schedule committee selected.

Further than that nothing Is known. Tho needs of the league are best shown by the Boston Herald, which recently published the opinions of eleven baso ball writers, ono from each league city. Their ideas in brief are as follows: J. H. Anderson of the Baltimore Herald Tho slight changes made In the playing rules with in the past year or two seem to have worked well.

The change In the pitching distance has undoubtedly benefited the game and given It more life and action. Penalizing the bunt has also turned out a good thing. With proper restrictions the bunt Is a very scientific play and should be kept In tho game. The legislation Intended to do away with the trapped ball Is still In a very misty state, and the rule as; it now stands needs to be made more definite. Tho improved character of the attendance at tho games calls for some explicit legislation with reference to the conduct of the players on the field.

The rowdy ball player must go. The senseless kicking against the umpire's decision should also be done with, and that Important personage should bo protected from the foul abuso to which he is now too often exposed by angry players. And this suggests that up to date baso ball demands a higher standard for the personnel of the staff of umpires. It Is not necessary that a man should be a tough to make a good umpire. The compensation Is liberal, and with the protection above suggested, men of character and standing could well bo secured to fill this most important position.

With reference to the present twelve club league, I am of the opinion thxtt it Is too unwieldy, and that a more compact oragnizatlon would Insure better re sults. I believe that the league should drop as fust as possible some of tho cities now In Its ranks. O. P. Caylor.

Now York Herald The base ball season Just closed has, to my mind, demonstrated the necessity for some stringent legislation before next year against certain evllu which have been growing to such monstrous proportions as to endanger tho very life of the game. In tho first place, the dignity of the umpires must be protected. Umpires are human. We cannot get infallible material on air. 'Young's staff.

Every one of them will make mistakes in rendering decisions. Yet they should have the most respectful treatment from the players and the crowd. I would suggest that a law be made, and enforced to the letter, prohibiting any member of either nine. Including the captain, from questioning a decision on a pure matter of judgment. That Is to say, only constructions of a rule as it applies to the umpire's decision should be brought up, and that only by the respective captains.

Every other player on the nine should be compelled to play ball, and not open his mouth in dissent. Another growing evil which the league should eradicate Is loud and senseless coaching. John B. Foster, Cleveland Leader The scoreB are too large; tho batting Is too plentiful; people have frequently gone away from the grounds during the last two years before tho seventh inning was over, while under the old rule It was very seldom any person left before tho ninth Inning was finished. I should prefer to see the bunt restored to its place.

It Is Just as much a scientific feature ot the game as the curves of the pitcher. uaisman ciever enougti to advance a runner by bunting the ball should not bo penalized for his ability. It is going backward to reduce the game from one of science to ono of brute strength. nome runs are well enough, and bo are base hits, out mere may be too many of them, as there may bo too few of them. I am Jirmjy opposed to toua ana Boisterous coaching of professional players.

If the base runner were allowed to over run second and third bases, there might be less splicing of players and less tendency to play "dirty" bail. One more thing the league management must take action upon. That Is the use of vulgar and profane language upon the field. There is not a club in the league exempt from this disgusting feature. I am in favor of two leagues If they can be maintained as two leagues were maintained In the old days of tho association and league.

Ken Mulford, Cincinnati Times Star lias ball needs one thing badly. The league wants a mun with the power and the backbone to walk Into the rowdies who disgrace their uniforms and discipline the offenders. There have been men In Cincinnati this year who have used language that would not be tolerated In tlio slums. An oath or indecent word on the word ought to be followed by a march to the bench, no matter whether it be the captain or his freshest understudy who Is guilty. Society has Indorsed the sport, and there Is little excuse for condoning the offenses of players who, by their actions, are Its greatest enemies.

John D. Prlngle, Pittsburg Despatch The work of the season Just ended has shown beyond all doubt that the pitcher Is too far from tho batter. As a result we have had many of tho worst played game3 since before the time when base ball was reduced to a system. The best pitchers In the land have been ruined. It follows, then, that the pitcher should return to the position where he was before the Increased distance between himself and the batter was adopted.

There Is still a remarkable lack of dlsclpllno among tho players when engaged In a same. There ought to be a plan established by which umpires would be compelled to report players who Indulged In blaclt guardish conduct on the field to a board of gentlemen specially appointed to deal with such cases. The board should bo empowered with authority to Impose penalties, even to the extent of blacklisting blackguards. The prestige of the game needs this, as the season's events have proven. It Is considerably easier to get eight clubs something like equally balanced than it Is to get twelve clubs; hence It can be plainly seen that the chances of success of an eight club league are almost Infinitely better than the chances of a twelve club league.

John Dudley Doyle, Washington Sunday Herald The rules of the gamo I would change In only two ways. I would so amend them as to glv. the umpires arbitrary and unlimited power over th players, even so far as to debar them fn.rn the game In ten, fifteen, twenty days' or a month's time without pay, if they continued to do dirty ball playing. I would let only the captain or delegated party make objections to decisions. Spectators desire to see base bail won and lost on Its rn rits and are against lo wand senseless kicking.

The other rule I would make would classify the foul tip. It should be something, an out or a strike. 'When the catcher is playing back toward the fence and the tip Ik made and he catches It. it Is an out; but when he is under the bat and personal danger and the play Is made, it goes fur nntlilng. This Is apparently a stupid construction of the law of base ball that should be rectified at this time.

This has 1 been so since tho big league was formed, and the merest, therefore, has died out until a crisis as almost been reached In the West, while in the East tho attendance and interest Is greater ban ever before. Another association is needed. But base ball will have to be built anew in tha West. With teams evenly balanced the Westerr enthusiasm would gradually revert to its old intensity. Daniel Mills, Philadelphia Times Ever1 since the famous Indianapolis when this mlsllt was fostered on the patr ins, all the best kjiown writers have prophesied ultimata downfall.

If all signs fall not, this was accom plished last season. That It lived as long as it did Is a wonder, and now that It will soon tie at memory only is the subject for congratulation all around. Strange as it may seem, all the tail enders, with tlio exception of Washington, cam from the West, Cleveland alone being the only" representative In the llrst division from that sec tlon. This fact in itself was the one great draw back to the season Just ended, for It killed thai game dead as a door nail in the West. In thai last trip made by the "Phillies" their receipts barely averaged J150 per game not enough to cover hotel and railroad expenses.

The schedul also as arranged was another drawback. Tha clubs were kept Jumping around, tlrst here andi then there, as they never were before. A. J. Planner, St.

Louis Post Dispatch Professional base ball, as played in ISO ph ased thei public, and the league magnates should exerclsa extreme caution in tinkering with the existing rules. The monotonous strike out game has been, legislated into a reminiscence, and in Its stead Is a system of play which requires nine experts to carry it to a full measure of success.

Summing up the whole, J. C. Morse of the Bosto Herald says: "It will be noticed that most them 'the writers) touch upon the lack of diseip line on the ball held, caused by the failure of umpires to assume their prerogative. The or sensus of opinion Is that the playlnK rules are all, right as they are, as they have taken away from the pitcher the supremacy he once enjoyed anc have added to the batting and run getting.
