Williams Is (i Credit te Baseball
TVRl'S RAYMOND CeliH. who i- new in the three, of a batting duel with
(ieerge Si-ler. of the Hrewii-, wi.l prelial)! be the net lntijer leaguer te
get Inte the selci t r'as- of niitury home-run hitter-. The Detroit manager
has eighty-six te hi iredlt. with the pre-peet of reaching ninety this year
and getting into the hundred cln next -aeti,
fJetting back te Williams, if every player in the majors had the same
arne-tness of play and the -atne dc-irc te give the f;m their menej's worth
when they wetk a- doe- VYil'laiii-, the pl.iy In both league, would be of such
ft high order that the m.igin.tes i.iiihl never remp'ain of irewd-.
Since joining the Phillies m mis William- has ierfermeil en a last
place team, jet he has played with all th -plrlt and enthusiasm that a member
f championship contender m the da-h down the -tretch is supposed te exhibit.
His hitting and tletding with the Phil lev this ear ha- been one of the
few redeeming features of nn otherwise co'erless season. He stands second
te Hern-by in home runs nnd i- batting well ever the ."00 mark. Net only
that, but he is covering all kinds of territory in the outer gnrdens.
Previous te 1!H0 William- was never noted as a -lugger. In his thirty
first year he started pounding the ball, turning in a mark of .Jli.',". Last
year he hit the pellet for .."HO and this -easen he should be well above the .300
nark when the curtain Is rung down.
Williams is a home-loving athlete. The bright lights of the big towns
fall te Intrigue him as they de most players. His training campaign keeps
him In excellent shape both winter and summer. During the off-season 67
leeks after his farm In Indiana, where he lives with his family.
CCRT WALKER, irhn eame te the 1'hih in the trade icith the
Giants lait season that ruf .lfri re rtc Verfc, ii another
athlete of the same tripe of WiUiumr Ilu earnestness nnd hard irerk
this season icith the I'hilhei have stamped hit m one of the real stars
of the game. He. like Williams, is a real swatter. Te date he has
nine home tutu te his credit and is leadma the Phillies at bat.
Hubbell Wins Despite Lcbeurveau
WILLIAMS played a conspicuous part In the first victory scored by Wll
heltn's hirelings in a week. The lanky outfielder had a double and a pair
f singles, and drove In a run. In addition, he had four geed catches In the
outfield nnd made one of his verv few eirer.
Walker was Impotent with the tik. but the remainder of his mates made
up for ln lack of hitting. All told, the Phils garnered fourteen safe drives,
about their average number a game. Only difference vesterday was the fact
that they were meeting a team that looked wer-e and that Wilbur Hubbell
pitched a fair article of ball.
It was the first game in some lx weeks that the husky former ("Slant was
able te finish. Out in the West he had trouble getting by nnd since his return
home he has been belted from the mound en four occasions. His support
was net of the best agalni-t the Ilravcs, but with men en bases In the later
innings he proved an enigma.
If Hubbell ran get b.n-1; Inte the form that characterized him early In the
ensen and the ether pit. hers et the sureties out of their salary wings the
Phils may yet keep out of the (ellar. The liraves are a mil. h worse-looking
combination by far ami there is no reason why WUhelm shouldn't guide his
team for the rest et the season in si.venih pl.v , something that a number of
ether managers, tee miinviuu- te ineirieii, have been unable te de In the last
five seasons.

THE number of women participating In uperts In America Is Increasing Ime

In RWlmmlng mere than In any ether sport women dress with the Idea el
gaining freedom of motion. The California one-plcce nult with the short skirt
attached Is within the limits of modesty and yet docs net weigh down th!
swimmer.
bi golf, knickers are the rage, and sorne women tcnnlB players are wcarlni
them en the courts. '
In track and field, however, the contestants have net learned their lessen
from kindred sports. Most of the xvemen athletes en the cinder path wear full
bloomers and blouses. These arc caught In the wind nnd retard the speed te an
amnzing degree.
In Europe the women arc garbed similar te the men. Short trunks inj
athletic jerseys are used universally.
