io Ken Williams, ‘As Himselt, As a Swat Artist, “As a Doughboy ‘ How many big league stars could you identify out of the baseball uni- form? In uniform, you yecognize that familiar swing, no ‘doubt. That can’t be anybody but Kenneth Wil- liams of the St, Louis Browns. You’re right. But who's the chap in the nifty street suit, white collar and silk cra- vat? Who's BROWNS SHOWN LEADING YANKS INSEASON PLAY “Dope Sheet” Gives Gives St. Louis. Better of All Departments Except Sacrifice OTHER LEAGUE RECORDS (By the Associated “Press) Chicago, Sept. 9.—WitK the Yan- kees and Browns neck and neck in the home stretch of the American ‘League pennant race today, a dive into the batting averages of the two contenders reveals’ the startling fact that the St. Louis batters have. con- nected with 154 moce hits than their Yankees rivals; scored ninety-nine more runs, stolen eighty-three more bases, and have been excelled only in sacrifice hitting. The figures show the Browns have connected with 1471 hits as against 1,817 for the Yankees, and have! scored 765 runs, as compared with} ‘666 for New York. In home run hit- ting, the Browns, with Ken Williams jn the lead, have belted gut'eighty- seven, while the Yankees, avith their mighty Ruth, are trailing with eigh- ty-three, cd Better Base Runners. : In base stealing, the Browns excel nearly two to one—stealing 117 bases ds compared with ‘fifty-two for- the Yanks The Browns also have proved | he better club in getting bases on halls, having .a total. of 407, with B24 for the New Yorkers, = George Sisler, first base star, it not alone in the hitting drive of the ‘Mound City club. John Tobin is fifth in the list of league leaders avith an average of .339, while Wil- liams, who cracked out his thirty- fifth homer of the season, is batting 3326. Hank Severeid, who has been doing the burden of the catching for the Browns, is batting .319, while ‘McManus, Jacobson and Pat Collins, pinch hitting utility catcher, all are above the .300 mark, The batting of Sisler the. last week enabled him to boost his average from .413 to .421, which makes it an almost certainty that he will finish the season well above\the .400 mark. In his last cight games, Sisler cot nected with nineteen hits, five of which were doubles and one a triple. "On the paths, Sisler romped across the pate twelve times, which gave him the lead as the best run getter. Sisler has registered 120 times, whil2 Blue of Detroit has counted 117.
