ton has evolved a system of doping"
baseball teams which has worked
with marvellous success. Each year
he has brought the system nearer ac-
curacy and he claims that he can de-
eide any series of games between two
teams in advance in nineteen out of
twenty cases. The one element that
cannot be calculated upon is luck.
He studies each player as an indi-
Vidual, figuring his value as batter,
a baserUnner, fielder, throWer and
INSIDE worker" He calculates the
relative value of baserunning, bat
ting, fielding, throwing and thinking
separately and reduces the strength
of the Individual to his offensive and
defensive strength. The offensive
strength of each man in the team is
added, and an average strength OBJ
tanned. The defensive strength of
each man is figured, and from it a
team strength is obtained. With va
rious other factors he has the COM
paratiVe strength of the teams at the
start of the series as closely as may
be figured.)
