BASEBALL AVERAGE
SYSTEM IS WRONG
For Several Years Critics
Have Been Trying to
Get Them Changtd.
BY PAUL PURMAN,

It Is only a question Of time until
baseball fans and critics will demand
a change in baseball statistics which
will give a better line on a players
actual value than the system now
in use.
For several years critics have now
md then pointed out the fallacies and
short comings Of the present systems
Of rating ballplayers, but the national
commission, most reactionary Of reac-
ionary bodies, has failed to take no.
tice.
The most revolutionary change in
the history of baseball rating was
adopted a few years ago by the AM
erican league in rating pitchers &C
cording to earned runs made off their
delivery instead Of on games won and
lost.
The earned run system is, Of course,
Z the falrest.
Changes in batting and fielding
averages could be made to be of great
benefit to the game and show with
more fairness the value Of the play
ers.
Several theories have been advanC.
ed suggesting means by which this
could be accomplished.
Perhaps the most remarkable is
one which would consider the number
Of bases secured on hits and the nun.
Der Of runs scored as the result Of
hits.
For instance-last year Waffle
Pipp, according to the present
system Of averages, batted .202
md ranked fiftieth in the list Of
~ batsmen. The average was based
on 143 hits in 545 times at bat.
No account was taken Of the
fact that Pipp had to his credit
20 doubles, ID triples and II
home runs for a total Of 227 eX-
ira bases, record exceeded by
only eight men in the league.
Jack Graney stood seventy.second
h the list with an average of ,242. But
Graney had to his credit Al doubles,
IL triples and five home runs, total
ling 226 bases.
Isn't it natural to believe that
either Of these players are Of more
value to their team than the player
standing near the top of the list, who
bats around. $50 and gets about $50
bases out of 225 hits?
will be done on the longer hits, Runs
vii ball games and the man who
builds UP his own batting averages
V Of the most value to his club.

Evening Chat

The Irvine oil field, in Kentucky as
developed from nothing three years
ago into the richest oil territory in the
state, and a dead-and.aliYe town OF 800
people has expanded into a city Of Is
900 inhabitants.
Three years ago there was a sleepy
little village on the bank Of Kentucky
river near the place where 1t rushes
forth from the mountains OF eastern
Kentucky and becomes a quiet, naNga'
BILE stream in the great, peaceful blue
grass region. A railroad with one To-
cal Lassenger train day each way
meandered from the low!ands on the
west I'D along the bank of the river
through the village to some other set
Elements upstream, 80 or 40 miles away
BIZ water or railroad or half the dis
lance as the crow flies. Rugged noun
taineers brought small loads OF COun-
try produce over long and winding
trails to the village and traded it for
what they could get, but they didn't
get much, for the rocky, mountain sides
do not produce much. The lands neal
the village could be bought for two or
three dollars an acre.
The mountains here are composed OF
layers of rock, one, two or three hun
dred feet thick, and the region is like
a great layer cake that has been cut
into at dozen places, the cuts being
valleys, in the bottoms of which rush
the tumultuous tributaries of the Ken
lucky. Nature had nearly everywhere
draped the cuts and scars with bushes
ana trees, but one layer of hard lime
stone near the mountain tops persist
ed in breaking down in huge blocks,
leaving an almost continuous line OF
cliffs that winds intriCately around the
mountain sides. Wealth was too scant
in this region to be wasted on survey
ors and on the recording of deeds, so
the cliff was used as property line, in
a sor. of gentlemen's agreement, and
few land owners knew their acreage
Now, after three years, a profound
change has affected the people OF the
region and their activities. The little
used mountain trails are widened and
deeply worn into riCky roads, over
which 6.mule teams struggle to pull or
hold back small loads of steel pipe and
machinery. The mountain stiffness is
broken by the staccato pup, pup, pup"
of scores Of gas engines, most OF them
hidden from view in the shrubbery.
The poverty.stricken mountainous,
who cared little for titles, precise acre
age, opsltion of boundary lines, or
court proceedings, are now hiring law
yers and surveyors to solve intricate
questions of ownership Some are now
wealthy and are growing Weather
through their tithe-or rather their

eighth-of the oil found on their
farms; some are hopeful of the results
Of tests about to be made; and some
are sury because they sold at too low
figure or feel that they have been
cheated by unjust laws or lawyers. A
recent court decision dispossessed
family that had been living for twenty
years in undisputed possession Of a
farm, found to be rich in oil, because
the person who sold it to them did not
haze full title and power to sell,
Some farms that we're worth few
huadred or thousand dollars three
years ago would now bring a million
or more The village, which is now
the city of Irvine, has an estimated
population of 5000. The railroad and
the few wagon roads have been great
ly improved. The picturesque moon
sinner has gone and, curiously, al
though the spirit of the place is much
like that of mushroom mining camp,
the puritanic stringency that prevails
is so strict that even a newspaper can
not ba bought on Sunday.
The Irvine oil field is in several re-
spects unique. 1t is by far the richest
yet developed in Kentucky. In fact,
its output in 1917 will be more than
twice as great as that of the dozens Of
other oil fields in the state, some Of
them long productive; and if nothing
unforeseen happens 1t will, according
to the United States Geological Survey,
produce much more in 1918. The field
is in region wherH oil showings have
long been known and oil has long been
sought, and yet somehow this great
pool 10 miles long and two miles wide
was missed.
The oil industry in the United States
is said to have begun in 1858, in north
western Pennsylvania, but oil and gas
were known in eastern Kentucky 80
years earlier. Some oil had been
found southeast of Irvine 20 years ago
and pools have been developed in the
surrounding region, but the great pool
northeast of Irvine long lay undiscov-
cred and unsupported, though the Uni
ted States Geological Survey, in 1911,
had reported that oil would probably
be found at this particular place.
Most Of the old produced in the Uni
ted States comes from beds or sands"
that lie one, two, or three thousand feet
below the surface and many miles
from an outcrop of the bed at the sur
face. The west side Of the Irvine field
is within a mile of outcrops Of the oil
bearing bed, which may be seen at sew
eral places in and around Irvine. Some
of the wells are less than 100 feet deep
and yet furnish good yields, even the
Oldest showing a relatively low rate Of
decline. In most of the oil fields of
the eastern United States the beds Of
rock are very gently warped but not
broken, but a long, narrow section OF
the earth's crust along the north side
of the Irvine field has been dropped
down 100 to 200 feet.

SEE CHAMP. GAME
EOnsOI and Grant Town
Managers Working on
the Details.

The date on which the Consolida-
t1on Coal Company baseball team and
Grant Town will meet to decide the
county championship is yet undecided.
Both teams have confidence that they
are better than the other and when
they do come together a stellar con-
test Is assured.
The one big drawback to the two
teams is to find a place to stage the
deciding game. 1t is probable that the
game will be played in Huntington
some Sunday within the near future.
Manager McAteer of the Consolida-
ton team and Manager Kirchner of
Grant Town are doing their best to
come to some agreement.

Purohased Mine.

c. slavah and Max Bear. two local
merchants have recently invested in a
we'll equipped coal mine near Shin
nston. They were in that town yes
terday looking after its first opera
ton under new management. Several
acres Of coal have been purchased,
enough to keep the mines in operation
for several years, The mine has
been previously operated and when
purchased by the two local merchants
was fully equipped with cars, track
laid complete, supply shops and all
other necessities in its operation. A
fine truck has been purchased for the
purpose Of hauling the coal to the
railroad for shipment.
