Batting and fielding averages for
the first season of the Central Pennsyl
vania Baseball League, which included
Steedton HigJ lß pire, X ow Cumberland
and Middletown, have been announced
©y I 1 rank A. Stees, president. Although
it was a poor baseball season for mot
engues in the country, this organization
made money and plans are now 'being
formed to continue it again next sea
son. Stronger teams are planned, for
the attendance last season would seem
to warrant the planning of better base
ball.
Batting honors went to Loekard, of
the champion Middletown elub, with an
average of .385 for the entire season.
Nhaipp is in first place, so far as avef
ages go, but played in only five games,
while Loekard played during the en
tire season. Third and fourth honors
go to two of the pitchers of the league,
Biever, of Steelton, being in third place
with the splendid average of .367,
•while Wertz is fourth with .356.
Other players who batted for .300 or
better are- R. Leedy, R. Etter, Dear
oil', Moore, Brenner and J. Leedy.
EijjiJit other members of the league bat
ted for better than -,250. Schultz
played in only Ave games and captured
the tail-end honors with an average of
.083. i
Highspire led the league in cluib bat
ting with an average of .252. Middle
town, winners of the pennant, were
second with .242. Steelton was third
with .228 and New Cumberland, which
finished second in the race, was last
with .226.
Fielding in the Central Pennsylvania
League was far better than in the aver
age organization. Em'bick, Finnen,
Shirk, Schultz and Wilt.se were tied for
first honors with a perfect average.
Swart 7. was next with .953, with 30
putouts, 27 assists and one error. Eni

FEDS WANT MARANVILLK
Offer Shortstop of World's Champions
SIO,OOO ft Tear
Boston, Dec. 17.—The Federal
League has offered "Rabbit" Maran
ville, star shortstop of the Boston Na
tional League baseball team, >IO,OOO
a year for three years, the money to
be placed in a bank when Maranville
signs the contract. It is said that the
"Rabbit'' declined the offer, but the
scouts are still on his trait, and the
"Feds" are reported to be far from
discouraged over their chances of land
ing the Braves' player. They arc pre
pared to make a still more advantageous
offer, it is rumored.
Maranville, who is now on the vaude
ville stage, is said to be loath to leave
Boston, where he is the idol of base
baH fans, and is in close management
of the team. He has a long contract
here, and it will have to be a most al
luring proposition that will induce him
to jump.
