.300 HITTERS DECREASE:
NUMBER OF BATTERS CROW
Taking Fifty Games as a Basis, Four
teen Sluggers Qualified iu Select
Class Last Year to Nine in Cam
paign Just Closed
New ork, Dec. 12.—A comparison
oi the official batting averages of the
National League for the s»asons of
11'1 .i and 1914 developes some inter
esting and puzzling features. Includ
ing all those [ layers who ; art icipatid,
iii any wanner, in fit'toon or more
each sea-son. the roster for this vear
shows ISS unities, .igains" IS3 twelve
months ago. Notwithstanding this in
crease ill the total number of oattera en
rolled iu the records, but fifteen of the
1914 hitters hammered their way into
the .300 or better ranks, while in ±9i3
the select list included twenty-three
games.
When these lists are again reduced
by eliminating all those players who
did not participate in at least titty
games or approximately one-third of the
season, the record shows (hat fourteen
'batters qualified in 1913 io nine i hi-;
season. Of this number, but four. Dau
bert, Becker, Wheat and Mag.<e appear
in both lists. (Whether the pitching
which the batters faced during 1914
was betier than n year ago or"a sort
dt sympathetic slump existed in the
National League it is impossible to
state, but the fact remains that a nrni
ber of those who batted their wav into
the .300 class in lUI3 could not ill pli
cate the feat during the past summer.
Oravaith, of the Philadelphia tilth, hit
41 in 1913 and .298 in 1911. Viox,
of Pittsburgh, dropped from .31J to
.265, Zimmerman, of Chicago, from
.313 to .296, Chief Meyers, of New
ork, from .312 to .286, Loibert, of
i hiladolphia, front .300 to .275 and
Wagner, of 'Pittsburgh, from .300 to
._'s2. This was the first time since
1 597 that Wagner dropped below .300,
l ilt this was not surprising in the case
o' Homis, for. like other batting heroes
of the pa-t, Wagner was at last fore\l
to bow to the all-powerful arm of Fa
ther Tine. For the period from 1897
to 1913, ine! isive. Wagner had a grand
::vcrnge of .341. His highest mark was
.380, made in 1900, and his lowest
.TOO, made in 191 3.
Anothe- peculiar feature is that three
of the four players who figure in the
. 100 or better class for both seasons
increased tiieir averages, while all
mound theiu the heavy hitters were
dropping below their last year's per
formances. .lake Dau'bert, the cliain
lion batter of the league for 1913 and
1914, fell from to .329, but he
v as the exception to tnc general rule
of the quartet.
Beals Becker raised his 1913 aver
age of .316 to .325. Zach Wheat gained
eighteen points bv batting .319 in place
of .311 rmd Sherwood Magee moved up
from .306 to .314.
Speaking of records and averages
brings to mind the fact that Charles
Edward Bricklev, the captain of the
Harvard I'niversity team of 1914, will
leave quite some figures behind him
when he is graduated next spring.
Bricklev since lie entered Harvard as
a Freshman in 1911 has piled up 259
pointi for the Crimson, i>s of which
were made on the Fieshman eleven and
the balance as a varsity player. During
the three years that Brickley played

Baseball as a panacea for militarism
| ridden Burope is put forth bv a Har
vard alumnus, who has spent some
, years abroad. In a letter to the Har-
I vard alumni weekly, he writes:
"My idea, of the best cure for this
'war condition would be 'more base
, ball.' 1 believe that if they had had
I a regular baseball league in Kurope,
with Berlin, Paris, London, Vienna, Ant
j wenp, etc., participating, as well as a
minor league taking in Belgrade, Brns
i sels and it few other such places, the
: fans would never have tolerated the
| breaking out of this war during the
baseball season, and if they had post
; pohed it until the world's series was
| over it would have given tliein all time
to cool off, and they probably would
S not have had any war. They say that
| basdball has done more to civilize the
I Philippines than the American army,
J constabularies and missionaries put to
gether."
j The stadium fever continues to
| spread throughout the land. Philadel-1
I pliia anil Chicago civic associations are
j now discussing the feasibility of erect
ing immensive structures capable of
seating 1(10,000 spectators. It is the
idea of those fostering the plans that |
stadiums of this size can lie used for i
many purposes, such as big football ;
: games, track meets, pageants, choral I
! festivities and military displays. The [
estimated cost ranges from one to two
million dollars and the receipts, on pa- 1
per at least, are expected to equal all j
, disbursements in the course of a few
1 years.

EVERS' CONDITION IMPROVES
Physicians Declare Braves' Captain in
No Immediate Danger
New York, Dec. 12.—The condition
of J aim n v Evers, captain of the Boston
National League baseball flu'b, who is
confined in a local hotel suffering from
pneumonia, was reported as unchanged
yesterday. The physicians in attendance
assured President Gaffney, of the club,
that the Bra ves' second 'baseman was
in no immediate danger. According to
this statement, Evers, while not entire
ly out of danger, is resting comfortably
and tlhere is no occasion for alarm re
garding his condition.
His wife, who arrived from Trov
Thursday night, is at his bedside, and
several friends and officials of the Bow
ton Club are at the hotel. Although
Evers expressed a desire to return to his
home yesterday, no attempt will be
made to move him for several days, or
sueih time as the physicians are assured
that his request can be granted with
safety.
Telegrams of sympathy and inquiry
regarding the condition of the Braves*'
star infielder have been received in
large numbers from all parts of the
country, and are being answered by the
Boston Club officials as promptly as
possible.
j LOBERT STILL UNSIGNED
President Baker Fails to Come Here to
See Player
Philadelphia, Dec. 12.—William F.
Baker, president of the Phillies, WE is
not in Philadelphia yesterday, and the
interview with Hans Lobert regarding
a contract for next season did not take
place. Baker is in New York with Pat
'Moran trying to fix up a deal for
Charley Dooin and will not be here be
fore Monday.
Lobert called at the Phillies' office
yesterday afternoon, hut did not talk
'baseball to any one. It is not thought
there will he any trouble in getting
the third baseman to put his name to
a contract, providing the salary offer
ed is somewhere near what Lobert ex
pects to get from the Federals if lie
jumlps.
