Great Britain has used as q guard
against submarines is being placed in

1t is expected the city will do no
more this year than buy and plant
trees in the park. This is the first
step suggested by the architect, after
the lawn has been seeded.
Mr.. Nason's plan gives basic
scheme for paths and planting that
themselves will be of interesting ap-
pearance. He has planned the work
so that the park will be capable of
flexible development and the initial
expenditures need not be large.
The center area of the park is to be
kept in u broad open lawn. with a
wading pool. surrounded by flower
beds. in the exact middle. At each end
of the wading pool. which is to be of
reinforced concrete. coated with white
cement, n pergola will be built. while
a drinking fountain will be placed
near the northwest corner. Paths
will lead in all directions.
The planting material has been
chosen with regard to vegetation
adaptable to Missoula's climate and
has been planned as quick growing
stock. as one of the features of Ma
sons plan is to make the place looR
like n park as soon as possible.

NEW SCHEME
TO PUT PEP
IN BASEBALL !
MCGOWAN CT Miss0ula Has
New Way of Rating Ball
Teams.

How many added points do you think
the Red SoX will accumulate next sea-
son?
Well, if you can't answer that ques-
ton, try this one:
VIII the Athletics be able to win
seven monthly points in April?
Those aren't foolish questions; they
are peeps into the future. The stove
league of l9l7-1S will be discussing
them next winter if the new system
of rating baseball teams worked out
by d. f. MCGOWAN is accepted by the
rulers of the game. Mr.. MCGOWAN
is a member of the legal staff of Dis
trict No. of the United States Forest
Service. He has devised a new method
of determining the standing of the
clubs" and will presently submit it to
the consideration of baseball magnates.
Baseball Needs "Pep."
Big league and minor league club
owners have been complaining for a
long time that interest in the league
races dies out in midsummer save in
those cities whose teams are close to
the top. The only practicable remedy
yet suggested is the double season; !;
that is, division of the playing sched-
ule into two parts so that all teams
may be placed on equal footing in
mid season. The confusions which
would inevitably accompany such an
arrangement have frightened league
magnates away from the plan. Mr..
| MCGOWAN, however. has found what
| he thinks is a way of avoiding the
| complications of the split-season with
out inviting midsummer dullness. He
has printed an explanation of his plan
in pamphlet form for circulation. A
| summary of it follows:

The MCGOWAN Plan,

Copyright 1917 by d. +. McGowan.)
The playing season is to be divided
into periods corresponding to calendar
months.
During each of these periods the rela-
tive standing of the clubs is to be
computed as at present, by averages
of games won and lost. But at the
end of each periol the teams are to be
rated by points. The team with the
eight-club league, to be credited with
eight points. The second team is to
be given seven; the third. six; the
fourth and fifth, five: the sixth, sew
| enth and eight, four each.
This system, it is apparent, keeps
| the teams punched closely without
| disturbing the ranking. That is, it
lessons the gap between first and
eighth while keeping the best team
at the head and the poorest at the foot
1t gives the tail-end a fighting
chance, yet keeps him a tail-ender.
Danger Of sIuffing.
There would be danger, however. OF
rela xation in the final days of the
period if the scoring ended here. II
might, for instance. become evident a
week before the end of the period that
the team then in first place could
hold its position without winning an.
other game. The result, Of course
would be loafing. TO eliminate this
danger bonus is to be given fol
games won in the last ten days thu
teams are to be given an additiona
. half point.
These bonus points are to be called
added points: the others will b.
styled monthly points"
The first rating accomplished, tn
, teams will begin the second period
, fresh percentages of games won be
ing taken.
II The Way It Works.
Suppose we illustrate it:
The Boston Americans, in the frs
D period of the season win 20 and los
= 10 games, giving them a percentage Q
i .G67 and leadership Of the league fo
e the period. They get, then. eigh
e monthly points" Now eight of tn
: teams victories were won in the las
s ten days of the period. For each {
|, these they get half point bonus. {

ran, into patches of melting snow
fringed with gentian clumps, heath and
