Joe Hauser Holds Batting as Well As Homer Honors Average Sinks to Mere .416,' However; Leaves Little For Others Chicago, May 11.—(4)—Joe Hauser pumped out four more home runs last Week and enough other hits to keep| the American Association batting leadership, although his average drop- ped from .436 to a mere .416. The pace-maker of the Minneapolis | attack not only headed the individual | list, but left little in the way of bat- ting honors for anyone else, according to averages which include Thursday's | afternoon games. His homer total was 17 in 20 games, he had batted in 40 runs, scored 32 times, and had the most total bases, 88. In addition,; he was tied with a team-mate. Andy! Cohen, and Bruce Connatser of Kan- sas City, in hits, at 32. Ray Radcliffe of Louisville topped the field in triples with six, and John: ny Cooney of Indianapolis had eight Goubles for a leadership. Mel Al- made of Kansas City was the leading} base-stealer with six thefts. Earl Webb of Milwaukee ranked second to Hauser among the regulars with an average of 413. Other members of the “first 10” were: Phil Todt, St. Paul. 408; Jack Kloza, Milwaukee, | and Doc Gautreau, Kansas City, 397; Babe Ganzel. Minneapolis, .369; Rad- cliffe, 367; Eddie Montague, Toledo, 366; George Detore, Louisville, 364; and Pinky Hargrave, Minneapolis, 362. George Hockette, Kansas City right- hander, and Jess Petty, the Millers’ yeteran southpaw, each scored a vic- tory during the weck to remain tied for pitching honors. Each had four straight triumphs. Phil Weinert of Louisville led the strikeout artists with 21. Minneapolis’ team batting average dropped 19 points, but its mark of .312 was good enough to dominate the field. Kansas City was second with .304, and Louisville had 301. St. Paul continued as the team fielding leader with .987, a point higher than its mark a week ago, while Milwaukee completed 12 double-plays to take the Walter Neusel, blond German mauler, eked out a slim victory over the aged Tommy Loughran in New York and thereby threw the scramble for Primo Carnera’s heavyweight crown into a bigger scramble. Judges disagreed on the verdict, which indicated that although Neusel won, he was far from being the battler he w ballyhooed as being.

Indians Rally to Win The left heel should never be con- R sciously lifted in the backswing. It is the turning of the hips that causes the left knee to bend sufficiently to pull the heel off the ground. In iron shots, where less hip action is required at times, the knee action will not be enough to lift the heel from the ground. Consciously lifting the heel will cause a swaying action of the hips which must be avoided in the golf swing.

The reason is that he fears his holding ad an be injured in Ossie Solem, Iowa former feat San Francisco, May 12.—(?)—Kid| nce himself with his big bat to within few hits of the top of the National loop sluggers. If it hadn't been for an accident, the Phillies might even be without Allen as their sole cause of joy. It was only through the managerial sa- gacity of Jimmy Wilson that Allen was brought from the Cards to Phile adelphia. ‘When Wilson was sent to the Phils to take over the reins, it was reported there was some high feeling between Wilson and Frankie Frisch because the former was forgotten by the Cards’ front office in choosing a new manager last year. It was also rue mored that Frisch's election had ree sulted in a rift in the ranks, Wilson being the chief dissenter. *** * In the process of building up his Phils, Wilson scouted around for a punch in the outfield, and his eyes fell upon Allen. Ethan hadn't done so well by the Cards in 1933, having hit only .241 in 91 games. ‘Wilson, probably the cagiest catcher in the ional loop when he played for St. Louis, knew Allen could play better ball when he was in the line- up regularly. So he engineered the deal that weaned Allen away from Frisch. Other wise heads at the game questioned the transaction, but Jim- my held his peace and proved hia point early in the year, when, after losing seven in a row, the Phils came back and took four out of five con- tests, chiefly because Allen's bat boomed so lustily. Allen always was a ball hawk, but his might at the plate was a bit ques< tionable until Wilson showed enough confidence in him to make him a reg- ular employe in the garden. ee * In the last four seasons, playing part time with Cincinnati, the Giants and the Cards, his attack had been woefully weak. His average in 97 games played with Cincinnati and New York in 1930 was .292, but he revived considerably after he had been swapped by the Reds and, in 1931, hit 329. In 1932 the Giants again put him on part time, and he dropped to .175. His brief career at St. Louis in 1938 again indicated to Wilson that the University of Cincinnati ball haw could play a swell game if allowed to take a regular turn at the plate. Just as one swallow doesn’t make a summer, or keep a guy in alcoholia bliss for a day, one ball player doesn’t make a team. No matter how hard Allen toils in the outfield and at the plate, his efforts apparently are in vain. The Phils, even with four such hite ters as Allen in 1933, couldn't get any- where. At the end of the season Chuck Klein and Virgil Davis were running one, two in the standings, while Wes Schulmerich and Chuck Pullis were right on their heels. Allen won’t make the Phils a pen< ant contender, but he will do credit to the judgment of Jimmy Wilson by proving he is a real ball player and not just an individual with part time ability. w eRERS (By The Associated Press) (Including Friday’s Games) AMERICAN LEAGUE Batting—Reynolds, Red Sox, .4649 Voralk. 3 Indians, 411.
