Terry, the only National leaguer, in modern times except Rogors| Hornsby to slug his way abova the 400 mark, finished with an unoffi- eial average of enough margin . over rival, Babe Herman of Brooklyn, to avoid thc risk of being dethroned i on the other hand, needed the help of a recount in the last few days to be assured of the American league championship over Lou Gehrig of the Yankees. Gehrig was just about to take three bows as the new hitting champion, official figures, until it was dis- covered five times at bat had beer cmitted from his record.

Last season, Al seemed to have, the title clinched until he struck a slump toward the end of the sea- son and fell below Lew Fonseca, the Portuguese slugger of the Cleve- land Indians. Lew was nowhere in the 1930 race. The National league season has not been remarkable alone for the vigor with which the contending clubs cuffed each other around in the last few months of the cam- paign. More and. bigger records were kicked all over the premises by the ingividual stars of John Arnold Heydler's family circle than ever befgre, All club batting records were wiped out by an orgy of slug- ging in which the Giant led the league with a new all-time team | mark of .318. Hack Wilson and Chuck Klein did most of the record-busting. Hack grabbed the home run. honors by cracking out 56, galloping home in front of Babe Ruth for the first time in his career and establishing himself as the only National leaguer to paste out more than 50 circuit| clouts. Wilson also set a new record for runs batted in by accounting for 190, 17 more than Lou Gehrig's Zormer major league record. Klein lost the home run record, which he set at 43 a year ago, but he made up for this by hitting'out a record number of doubles, 59, and | creating a new mark for assists, 42. The Philliesstar had one of the greatest offensive records of all time, leading the run’ scorers with! 168, collecting 250 hits, ort of the record that Bill Terry equalled with 254, driving in 170 funs and banging out 40 homers.| Hxs batting figure was .386. —_—— - BASEBALL GOT AL SPANKED‘; TAMPA, Fla., Oct. 15.—Mrs. Faus- tina Lopez used to spank her son Alfonso because he playsd base- ball when the cow had to be milked. | This fall she went to Brooklyn to see him perform behind the. plate | for the Robins.
