Three years ago, when the . fu- ture of the team was much in doubt, Crosley was prevailed upon to interest himself in the club.

Erskine has the most hits of any batter, 21, but has also more times at bat charged against him than any other player in the league, 55. Niemi, who has just returned from the Westward, has been at bat only 13 times so does not qualify as a regular batting leader.
