Stratford Kadettes were in Sea -
1 orth, Saturday night, playing an ex-
' hibition game with the Seaforth
Fawns. The Kadettes proved too
powerful a team and won handily
by a score of 31-8.,
The Fawns were without three
star players and the substitutes,
although trying, hard, were no 'match
for the visitors, and due to poor
fielding muffed many ehanes to stop
the Kadettes.

Last week we printed two list of
batting averages, one of the Bosh -
arts and the other of the Fawns.
Since this was published some read-
ers have inquired as to how these
averages are drawn up as in the one
list a person that had only played
one game was in second place,
The averages are arrived' at hp
dividing the times at bat into the
number of hits. The number of
games played and the number of
Suns ate not taken into considera-
tion when the batting average is fig-
ured out.
