Sheft. Modifies Rules-—Official Warn-
ing to Bar Athletes.
A modification of the rules of discip-
line at the Sheffield’ Scientific School
went into effect this week. The changed
rules are in the direction of more ef-
fective guarding of the scholarship of
those engaged in athletics and other
matters outside of the curriculuth.
The new rules forbid the participa-
tion in athletics of those who are act-
ually in danger, as evidenced by official
warning. This means that a general
low average, a number of conditions,
the repetition of subjects with the class
below, or any other fact or evidence

of danger will bar out the athlete, and
keep him barred out until he is again
out of danger. There is to be no spe-
cial opportunity for him if he gets into
trouble, because there will be only one
way ott which is safe.
The former rule that a single condi-
tion disqualified was found to fail as a
means of bringing pressure and to ex-
clude men occasionally whose general
work and standing in the School was ex-
cellent. The rule did not seem to mark
the danger line or to keep people away
from it.
Baseball of the Week.
Yale baseball has had a poor week of
it. The Brown game showed some
good fielding, but also poor work. The
batting was most disappointing. Things
were worse at Columbia. The Team
has the right stuff, good physical ma-
terial and excellent spirit, and is well
guided. But it needs instruction and
help right away.
COOK TO PLAY.
The change of rules will allow C. P.
Cook;. :1901,9%5-. to + play. «His general
stand is good and his attendance most
regular. The technicality of practically
a single close condition has hitherto
prevented his joining: the players, for
the old rule has been consistently ap-
plied. His case illustrates where the
old rule failed, but was in no sense
a catise of the change, which has been
under consideration for months.
Yale 5; Brown 1.
Yale took advantage of the errors
made by the Brown Nine, in the game
at the Field, Wednesday, May 2, and
by the bunching of hits at an opportune
time won out, with five runs to one.
With the exception of Quinby, who
made three errors, the Yale fielders
played carefully, and at critical times
were as steady as professionals. Three
times Brown had a man on third and
could not score. Quinby’s first error,
Which _ was largely responsible for
Brown’s run, was an excusable one, the
ball being a slow grounder between first
and second base, which the runner was
following very closely. Quinby made a
juggling catch of it, however, and was
late a fraction of a second in getting

care of all the batted balls in his terri-
tory and made a pretty sacrifice hit.
Washburn, for Brown, gave five bases
on balls, but kept Yale down to five
hits, well scattered. Crane, Brown’s
third baseman, made a one-handed catch
of a foul ball which was one of the
most phenomenal seen at the Field for
years. Behind the bat Cunha caught
well and kept the runners very close to
bases. His swift and accurate throwing
to second makes stealing that base a
very risky undertaking. Captain Camp
had the greater part of the fielding to
do, accepting eight chances without an
His throwing to first, always
good, was perfect on Wednesday. The
weak spots in the Nine, as shown in
several innings, when a hit meant a run
or two, are still the batting and slow-
ness on bases.
Brown opened the game in a dashing
way with Tobey’s two-base hit over
third. Bacon singled and Tobey came
home on a slow grounder by Clark. Up
to the fifth inning, Brown showed the
steadiest kind of a game, and gave an
exhibition of the kind of ball that shut
out Harvard without a run the preced-
ing Saturday. In that inning, however,
with Sharpe and Guernsey on _ bases,
with no one out, Whittemore threw wild
to second, which started an epidemic of ,
errors and allowed both runners to
score In the seventh, with one man
out, Guernsey and Quinby were given
their bases on balls and both scored on
Barnwell’s drive to right field. Camp,
who followed at the bat, brought Barn-
well home. In the last of the. ninth

looked like runs, but Camp threw both

closed the game.
The score:

Yale 9; Columbia 4,
Yale’s play against Columbia in the
ball game at Columbia Field, New York,
Saturday, May 5, was very discourag-
ing, considering the possibilities of the
team. The score was 9 to 4 in Yales
favor, but errors were altogether too
frequent for this time of the year, and
the batting was weaker than ever, all
but one hit of the seven scored being
scratches. The Columbia team was not
a strong one, either at the bat or in the
field and made all sorts of errors, Good-
man, the short stop, being responsible
for four costly ones. Robertson was
in the box for Yale for eight innings
and pitched well, although in the sixth
he was hit safely three times. Mc-
Kelvy pitched the last inning in good

form. The feature of an otherwise poor
game was Cunha’s catching and throw-
ing to bases.
