NEW YORK, Aug. 27.-The major
league batting races settled down this
week to a pair Of close stretch lights.
Jimmy Foxx of the Red Sox, collect
ing 10 hits in 43 batting chances
boosted his average 10 points to 1856
and regained the American League top
spot from Cecil Travis Of the Senators
by 3-point margin.
Ernie Lombardi of the Reds, while
still setting the National League pace
with 1851 mark. saw his lead shrink
to II points by the late-season drive
OF Phil Weintraub of the Phillies, who
advanced points to $40 to take sec
ond place from Cincinnatis Buck
Mccormick.
In the American League, the top
ranking leaders all increased their
averages, with Hal Trosky of the
Indians climbing from sixth to third
by an ll-point rise. The National
League saw all its top flight, with the
single exception of Weintraub, lose
ground.
Newcomers In the top-lo groups
during the week were Joe Di Maggie
and Bill Dickey OF the Yankees and
Joe Cronin Of the Red Sox. who climbed
to tie for eighth place in the Amer
ican League, at 1926. and Stan Hack
OF the Chicago Cubs. who nosed into
tenth place in the National League

EASTON AND DELAWARE
DIOCESES NOT TO UNITE

A penny-a-liner correspondent from
Chestertown in the Sun on Friday last
spoke of possible merger of the Dio-
cese of Easton and Delaware. This
penny-a-liner disregarded the fact
that this proposition was debated for
two hours at the May convention of
the Diocese of Easton, and was over
whelmingly turned down.
The harm that these so-much-a-
line correspondents do is great and
there is none more pronounced than
the one in Chestertown. His effusion
in the Sun was as follows, and it is
all untrue to the last limit:
"The recent resignation of the Rt.
Rev. George w. Davenport a Bishop
of the Diocese of Easton and the near
approach of a special convention,
which has been called by the standing
committee of the diocese to meet at
Easton, December Is, to elect his sue
cessor, have revived question which
has been agitating the minds Of a mum
Der of leading laymen in this section
of the diocese for some years relative
to a union of the Diocese of Easton
with the Diocese of Delaware.
proponents of the union in this
section of the Eastern Shore believe
that because of the relatively small
area covered by each diocese, a union
of the bishoprics would not only aid
materially in developing the work of
the two dioceses but would centralize
it's supervision under the control of
an outstanding man of the church
working with a combined standing
committee of representative clergy
and laymen of the two dioceses, which
would eventually result in the strength
ening of all parishes in the combined
area.
"It is said that the question will
be brought to the attention of dele
gates to the convention in Easton
with view to having special COM
mission appointed to confer with a
similar commission from the Diocese
of Delaware for the purpose of study
ing the advisability of bringing about
