individual scoring race is shapihg up so far this season as a three way battle among Earl Monroe of the Baltimore Bullets Elgin Baylor of the Los Angeles Lakers and Dave Bing of the Detroit Pistons At the moment Monroe is nominal leader but he played three more games than each of his chief rivals and trails both in average number of points per game At the same time Monroe's average produc tion per game is sufficient to suggest that he will remain in the fight for the lead when his rivals catch up to him in games played The official figures released today show that Monroe has scored 300 points in 11 games for an average of 273 per game Baylor has scored 249 points in eight games for a 311 average and Bing has tallied 247 in eight games for a 309 average Bob Rule of Seattle Kevin Loughery of Baltimore Czzie Russell of New York and Gus Johnson rank 4 54 7 in points but the next best average after Monroe's belong to Gail Good rich of the Phoenix Suns who has scored 216 points in eight games
