Cooney banged out 16 hits in 30 trips to the plate—14 of them singles— to pull his average up to .368 and re- place the faltering Buzz Arlett of Minneapolis as the league's best bats- man. Leaders Backslide Dale Alexander, husky Kansas City first baseman, didn’t lift a bat all week but went into a tie with Arlett for second place as there was a general backsliding of the leaders. Arlett and Alexander were deadlocked at .364, the former dropping 13 percentage points as he collected only six hits in 28 at- tempts. Johnny Gill, the circuit's leading home run hitter, slid from second to fourth place, with .361 but cracked out two homers during the week to boost his total to 34, nine more than Milwaukee's Ted Gullic, runnerup in this department. Leads Pilferers Fred Haney, manager of the Toledo Mud Hens, added three more stolen bases to run his league leading total to 27, six more than pilfered by Jack Sherlock of Indianapolis, the runner up.
