in several matters pertaining TO baseball
were suggested last night by President
Lynch, of the National League, a mem
Der Of the National Commission. who is
here for the worlds series Of games.
Mr. Lynch proposes TO dispose OF
some of the criticism to which the off,
cial scoring in both leagues has been
subjected by leaving the appointment nf
official scorers in each city to the Base
ball Writer'S Association, instead Of
having them appointed, by the two
the club owners.
The official scoring Of the world s
series, Mr.. Lynch suggested, should be
done by three scorers, one TO be ap-
pointed by the National League, one by
the American League, and the other by
the baseball writers themselves, ma
