.P0ST.sEASON SERIES
FOR FEDERAL LEAGUE
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATCH1

CHICAGO, July 12-Although the
plans of the Federal League magnates
regarding a post season series are not
yet completed it is APPARENT that there
will be an effort made to hold the
attention of the baseball fans during
tween the winners of the National
and American League pennants. The
major leagues close their seasons on
October I and the Federals on Oc-
tober IS. According to the tentative
plans of the new organization the
pennant winning clubs will issue an
open challenge to the leaders of the
two major organizations and if ig-
nored will institute a series of their
own.
| 1t is proposed to select an all-star
team from the seven clubs finishing
after the pennant winner. This COM
| bination will play series of seven
or nine games against the league
leaders, the contests to be held in
various cities comprising the Federal
! circuit. The gate receipts will be d.
! vided among the players composing
the tow teams upon a basis of sc
per cent to the winners and 40 pei
I cent to the losers. There is also talk
of the magnates adding either a sun
of money or automobiles to the poo
in order TO make the prize worth the

GRANT LEADS BATTERs

NEW YORK, July 12.-Batting av-
erages based upon the hitting in the
two major leagues during the first
three months of the 1914 season show
that as rule the heavy hitters of
the past two years are batting close
to form. In the National League,
Grant, Cincinnati; Crandall, New
York, and Zimmerman, Chicago, were
leading on July /, 1912. A year later
Crandall, New York; Cravath, Phila-
delphia; Hyatt, Pittsburg, and Dau-
bert, Brooklyn. were closely punched
in the race for honors. Their aver
ages on the first of July were as fol-
lows: Grant 1929, which gave him
fourth place among those players
who had participated in at least
:: twenty five games. Crandall in the
Federal League was batting at 1928
rate which puts him among the first
seven stick wielders in the new league.
Zimmerman, however, showed slump
in his batting. being more than a
| hundred points below his previous
J record. Cravath, who batted .346 in
1873 showed 81, while Hyatt like
Zimmerman was considerably below
his 1918 form.

mile south of Phoenix, they had a
peculiar game of baseball yesterday.
1t took nine Phoenix and nine Mesa
players, and Homer King and Uncle

baseball game off. (Off what? you
ask We do not answer.) The reas-
on it took one hour and forty min
utes instead of until after five
o'clock to handle those nine innings
(eight and a half is more correct)
is that the aforesaid Homer King is
