A radical base ball change in the rormation of the diamond has been proposed. The place seems ro be a feasible one and worthy of considera- tion. 'The suggestion hue been made through the instauee of the league emanates. The new s'choure is to in, crease the bases 'of the diamond from tour to live, thereby making a Larger ti, -,1(1 area to cover and changing the shape of the diamond to that of a pen - teem or five -sided figure. This would put first base ten feet further nut than it is now, place eec:ond base to the right of its present location, make third base u.hout where the shortstop usually plays and push the fourth base about ten feet to the left of the present third hose. The promoters of this scheme i'lai.n that it would increase the patting in that there would not be so many foul halls and that the field- ing wituld of necessity be touch livelier. They also clann that stealing bases would he easier, and that also the strain upon the catcher's throwing arm would not he so great as it ie . under the present circumstances. new field would not require any more players to cover it,the second baseman taking care of that base, the shortstop looking out fur third and the present third baseman being .assigned to fotirtl' bast+.
