will be used extensively this year in
doping out the batting and fielding
percentages OF players, both in getting
the percentages of the big league play
ers and in individual clubs
When It is considered that these per-
centages have to be changed every time
that a player comes to the plate or
takes the field, it will be realized what a
lot OF mental labor will be saved. With
some easier method OF getting the figures
complete standings OF players and clubs
will be available earlier and oftener.
This years job of getting the figures
Is going to be a harder and more COM
plicated one than ever before. Under the
new method OF figuring batting and play
ing percentages adopted by Ban B. John

the number Of figures to be handled is

CANNOT BAR WOMEN.
American League Could Not Conflict
with Nations Law.

Cleveland, Ohio. Dec. 26.-Vice President
Barnard, of the Cleveland Maps, rises to
remark that the report that the AmeIi-
can League had passed a rule declaring
that no woman will be allowed TO own or
operate a club in that league is not based
on facts.
That report Is entirely wrong" de-
clares Barnard. 1T has always been
an American League rule that no club
should be sold to q party or a syndicate
Of parties without the consent of the re-
naming clubs Of the league. That was

CONTRACTS NOT ISSUED

Special to The Washington Herald.
st. Louis, Dec. 26.-None of the Brown
les have announced their retiTement be-
cause of dissatisfaction over salary for
next season. That's because President
Hedges has not yet sent out the con-
tracts for the 1913 campaign. According
to the colonel, he looks for none of his
players to join the hold-out colony, al
though he admits that in baseball you
can never tell what's apt to happen.
It wouldn't be surprising, however, II
Derrin B. Pratt, the clever young second
sacker of the Stovallized aggregation. is
one Of the tardy ones to swing in line.
Pratt proved one of the best youngsters
who jumped into the American League
last season. Although not a finished sec
ond sacker by any means, he proved
valuable man because Of his hitting and
the fact that he nudged into the 800
class by a margin of but two points may
cost Col. Hedges a few extra hundred ko-
pecks to get the stylish Southerner to at
tach his signature to a document.
The colonel admits that Pratt earned
an increase over his 1872 stipend. but
whether Hedges and Pratts ideas regard
ing a raise are the same remains to be
seen.

Others Rewarded Last Season.


Several members of the Browns re-
celved more money than their contracts
called for in 1872 That's because they
played sterling ball at times, despite
the fact that the team lowered in the
eighth hole a major portion Of the sea-
son.
At the end of the marathon Col
Hedges called 4 chosen few into his
office and following pretty little speeches
slipped the deserving athletes bonuses
These same men are sure to get salary
increases next season and may be
counted among the early ones to join
the signed-up squad.
Col Hedges is now preparing the
group of contracts to be mailed out
Immediately after the first of the year
One Stipend Was Chopped.
While some Of the Browns were re-

WASHINGTON, May 22.-Some one

General Hitchcock to know if there
is any demand for a cheap and rapid

delivery offices. He thinks he has an
idea that is just the thing and will
work satisfactorily, with the addition
al advantage of being cheap.
Another man has an idea of new
era calendar" which he proposes to
stake in every new town and kinder
garten park" He writes:
1T Is not based On any religious
creed, but on the great pyramid OF
Jeezeh, the worlds inheritance of
prehistoric civilization. It dispenses
with our present unnatural four-year
Olympiad and leap year system, and
brings the solar and lunar year into
better record b" means of the pyra-
mid twenty-dve-years lungar cycle,

ately than the ecclesiastical nineteen
years lunar cycle now used to fix the
dates of Christian and Jewish festi-
walls. It restores the week of days,

of original creation and evolution and
substitutes universal year of jubi-
lee.

WIVES FOR CHEAPER LIVING
League in New York Urges More Re
tail Markets

tall Markets
NEW YORK, May 22.-The New
York Housewives League, which had
been investigating the problem of the
higher cost of living for nearly two
years, has agreed upon a program
which aims to induce the city to
establish twenty-three new retail
markets in centers of population
throughout the various boroughs. The
markets should be run, It is urged, by
a cooperative board Of producers and
consumers, who should fix prices sub
ject to the judgement of an arbitra-
ton committee.
The chief factor in the great dis
crepancy between the price received
by the farmer for his product and the
sum paid for it by the consumer, &C.
cording to the Investigators, is found
in the cost of transportation. It is
declared that of every 500 spent on
food by the New York city house
holder at least $40 goes in getting his
purchases from the railroad station
to his residence.
