The Yankees practically rewrote the record book. Ignored.in the pre-season favorite list, they won! the American League pennant by 19% games and beat the Giants, four games to two, in the World, Series. H Some idea of the Yankee power may be gained irom these figures:| They whacked out 1676 hits, in-| cluding 315 doubles, 83 triples and| 182 home runs. These were good for 2,703 bases, 995 runs driven in, and 1,085 runs scored. Their total base hits, extra base hits, home runs, runs scored, and runs batted in established new major league' records. Hubbell closed the season by win- ning 16 straight victories whxchl floundering by the Cards and Cubs, practically carried the Giants to the National League pennant. The Giant ace won =5 games! and lost 6, and for the third time| in his career led National League: pitchers with an earned run aver- age of 241. Hubbell was named “most valua- ble” in the National League and Lou Gehrig, Yankee first baseman,; was named in the American. Second Southpaw Scores Another venerable left-hander, Lefty Grove of the Boston Red Sox, topped American League pitchers with an earned run average of 2.81. Counted out two years ago after a remarkable career, Grove has now ! led his league two years in a row. The batting: champions of the( two leagues were Luke Appling of the Chicago White Sox in the Amer- ican with a mark of .388 and Paul ‘Waner of Pittsburgh in the National with 373, There were two important ad- ministrative changes and one im- portant legislative change in the big leagues. The St. Louis Browns were | purchased from the estate of the late Phil Ball by a St. Louis syn- dicate headed by Donald A. Barnes; | and Burleigh Grimes replaced Casey Stengel as manager of the Brooklyn | Dodgers. Both administrative moves were made after the close of the season.

FOR MAYOR- | Sport Slants Bu PALIP It seems strange, with all the athletes developed in college sports, that no college trained fighter has a serioi contender for the yweight boxing title. Steve Hamas came the closest to being rated near the top after he scored over Max Schmeling. But he, too, dropped by the wa, e when he met Schmeling in Germany in a urn bout and suffered such a ng that he ever beer the same since.

Football is a great gome, It gives the individual chance to gain a measure of fame that may serve to pull some cus- {temers through the gate later on, but it generally does so at a price.

This request was denied, marking the first time in Landis’ baseball career his power had been curbed. Altendance Soars All club owners in the majors re- the year before. Unofficial figures showed the Yankees on top with a a million.” Attendance at the New York World Series also reflected better times. The record single-game attendance of 63,600 set by the Yankees and Cards in 1926 was broken twice,| and a new all-time high of 66,669 was established. The season also produced two outstanding rookies, Outfielder Joe Di Maggio of the New York Yan- kees and Pitcher Bob Feller of Cleveland. Di Maggio hit 323 in 138 games, whacked out 29 home runs, two in one inning, and got 206 hits. Hi was the 12th major leaguer in his- tory to get more than 200 hits his first year up. Pitching despite a protest that he was signed in violation of the major-minor league agreement, Fel- ler won five games and lost three. He tied Dizzy Deans ma’jor league strikeout record by fanning 17 Phil- adelphia batters on September 13. He pitched to 227 batters and struck out 76, almost one in every three. Champions Fall Other outstanding first-year men were Johnny Mize, who replaced Jim Collins as regular first baseman of the St. Louis Cardinals, and Roy Weatherly of Cleveland. Weatherly hit 335 and Mize, .329. It was a hard year on defending batting champions. Both Buddy Meyer of Washington and Arky Vaughan of Pittsburgh, 1935 champs of the American and National League hitters, respectively, started poorly and were never able to get on top. Meyer slumped 30 points from his winning total and finished with a mark of .269. Vaughan, however, ended with a total of .335.
