QUESTION Of SCORING.
Mr. F. Fl. johnson. scorer o. the Louisville
Club, has made very excellent and complete
sunlung-up OF the rcs,ord Of that organization,
which is published in tic Couricr7s]ournal. Mr..
ord u Of ficldiue merit can be obtained BY taking
the percentage OF errors made to pub-outs and
assists combined. This Is an exploded fallacy,
and rests On the assumption that these two
items connrisc all the nlar. In fatt, every
er1or to hold thrown 6all entails NOT
n hut derives the man yhn thre.v
of thc cl,anrt. Of getting credit for an assist
hat il. every time Gcrhafdt Las mufTed q ball
from Harue this wear, he has spoiled the latter
nlaycrs .hapce for a credit. WilI Nr. johnson

What is the League Association going to do at its
Cleveland Convention IN regard to suspected play
ere! This is question OF vital Importance to the
interests Of professional playing for the season of
1877, and the League will do well to give it deep
cons. .deration- Last winter, when we asked the
oe1 the
tume Of the most marked men: the reply was;
1--WE thought it best TO forgive them Their ooked
laws to make them play strai ht this season, - The
folly OF this line OF Gcton hes bs en- shown BY tue
experience Of the play OF 1s76- during which more
crooked work has been privately lndulSed in by
players Of more than one of the League ciubs than
was ever before known: ~ qulte tsne tnat aoso-
