TO REVISE SCORING
Players Want LiberaIity in De-
Gliding Hits; Leniency
on Errors.
STRONG PLEA FOR CHANGE

That the scoring rules should be re-
vised in regard to hits is the opinion OF
fered by freak plays this season. as
we'll as in other years. That there
should be more leniency shown by
scorers in jotting down errors also IL
contention of certain of the sluggers
batting average.
Hitting has been unusually light this
year. or rather was up to the first of
last week. 1t is beginning to show an
isfy those Of our hitters who imagine
that every mans hand is against them.
Wherever players congregate there
have been exciting arguments over
what they allege Is unique system Of
apportioning hits and errors. This is
nothing new-in fact. is as old as the
same-but several plays have come up
this year which. according to the play
ers. demand a new Interpretation.
There have been several cases this
the ball into safe territory. only to- be
robbed of a hit through a force play or
other circumstances. The most notice.
able incident was tho Larry Doyle case
full. Les Mann hit the ball to right
center for an apparently safe hit. only to
have Gavvy Cravath hoist the pill to
the plate and Kill off Doyle, thus. ac-
cording to the Interpretation Of the
rules. robbing Mann of a hit.
Another play of slightly similar char
acter also came up at Philadelphia In
the game between the White Sox and
the Athletics. The bases were full. with
one out. Hap Felsch hit a short fly
back of second base toward right field.
1t seemed as II any one of the four men
could get 1t. but no one did. Leihold
was on third. Jackson on first and
Weaver on second at the time. Leibold
ond on throw from Bill Johnson to
Witt.
Hap Needs the Hits.
Although some Philadelphia scorers
in the press stand insisted 1t was a hit
and scored 1t as such. the official scorer
did not, and all that Felsch got out of
1t was q time at bat, which sadly cut
into the lean batting average Of Oscar.
This play was different from the Doyle
incident in that a man scored. and tho
players unanimously insisted that IT
the scorers would not give tho batter
q hit under such circumstances the
rules should be revised.
The argument advanced Is simple and
has considerable force. 1t Is to the
| effect that batter should not suffer
for what a baserunner fails to do. Had
there been only two on at the time
Felsch hit the ball the chances are that
Hap would have been given credit for
| a hit. but this probably would have de-
pended on the runner on third. A slow
man might have been caught at the
plate fast man would have been
certain to score. Why. then. should the
batter be penalized when he does his
| part?
| The same holds true with many In
| field hits, as the players have pointed
| out The batter rolls a grounder to
some part of the infield in such man
| ner that there isn't chance in the
| world to make play at first. but on
| account Of the slowness Of some run

Promoted Over TOO Mem.

Commander Campbell was actually deo-
grated by the king before the award OF
the Victoria cross was published in the
Official Gazette. and he also received the
distinguished service order, under similar
circumstances a short time earlier. and
was given special promotion over the
heads Of about 700 officers. Current ru-
NOR ascribed his remarkable preferments
to work against submarines.
The advancement Of Sanders has been
even more remarkable. He was COM
missioned in the naval reserve as a sub
lieutenant a year ago. The rule is that
an officer shall serve eight years as a
lieutenant before getting further advances
ment, but he has risen by special diepen-
sation from sublieutenant to Lieutenant
commander In less than q year.
