A 1926 rule update review notes no massive pitching changes but clarifies many rules. It covers substituted players, rosin use variance, ball handling by umpires, captaincy on field, and the deliberate touch, with emphasis on preventing delays, clarifying balks, and defining sacrifice plays and stolen bases. More precise guidance aims at minor leagues and clarity for umpires and scorers.

Hollywood April 9 United Press. Marion Fairfax, top woman motion picture producer, says a new brainy sheik type is replacing the Latin or physical hero on screen. She cites Lewis Stone Ronald Colman and John Gilbert as examples of mental virility in stars. She argues fans prefer strength of mind and a protective, wealth-linked man but notes the mental type carries the conviction and steadiness to lead and endure crises. A lone gunman incident at Ottawa Santa Fe station is also reported.
