MAKES GREAT COMEBACK
Rases Peekiansugh. Once Almasi Al Through, Has Piayed Fine I,aiI This Year.

Washington, Oct, s,-Ths greatest comeback" of the year in the AmeTis can league is Roger Peekmpsugh, vet, ersn sheFtstep Of the Washington Ma tianals,
 Last season Peek got away 10 a very had start, due largely to injuries that handicapped his spring training in the south, Only in the final weeks Of the campaign did he hit his stride.
 Incidentally the failure of Peekin, paIgh to be made manager last year aneeied his work, Eager to try his hand at the managerial game. the ap- nointment of Clyde Milan to lead the Nationals in isss was no doubt dis tinet disappointment q
 fhis spring Peek reported in the heat shape of his career, eager to make good for Donis Bush. He sure has delivered,
 No shortstop in the American league has played more brilliantly, His work in starting double plays has buen marvellous. While he hasn't broken any records at the plate. his hitting has been timely. His great work has featured the play Of the club.
 Last season Galloway was the most valuable shortstop in the American league. This season the honor goes 10 Peekinpaugh.
