At the meeting of the C. A. direc-

was decided after considerable debat-

averages for the year would not be
given out for publication until Octob-

News of ST. Louis has published them
without authority there can be no
reason for holding them longer.
To Outfielder Millisan of the Cedar
Rapids team goes the batting honors
of the season, with an average of $50.
There are few other players who
have higher average but Milligan
has played in SO many more games
than these men that there can be no
real comparison. Seneff of Keokuk
comes in twelfth place with an aver
age OF 800 and at that rate leads the
local team in stick work. He wins
the silver bat offered by Ayers &
Chapman to the Keokuk player with
the highest batting average In team

ever, the local club is at the bottom
