NEW YORK, Aug. 81. The
'Bama Kid, Carvel Rowell of the
Boston Bees, still is showing the
way for the National League hitters
but it looks as If the scrap for the
hitting championship in the senior
circuit is going to be a scramble all
the way down baseball's home
stretch.
The fleet young outfielder sur
rendered two points of his average
this week to wind up at 1923 Friday
with quartet of experienced sharp
shooters punched within easy range
behind him.
Mize Still Big Threat.
Johnny Mize of the st. Louis
Cardinals, the 1889 hitting king who
threatened Rowell last week by
surging into second place with 1923
mark, slipped back in more recent
days to tie for fourth at 3lS, but
that's not an awesome distance with
a month of competition ahead
Mize was bracketed with Harry
Danning, the New York Giants
catcher who set the pace for many
weeks and likewise remains a men,
ace to the leader. Two points above
both, at 320, were bracketed con-
sistent Frank Mccormick of the
Cincinnati Reds and Dixie Walker,
the Brooklyn Dodgers hot and cold
.sharpshooter who also was an early
season leader.
Mccormick Top in Hits.
Buck Mccormick had something
of monopoly on the speciality de-
partments for another week, top
ping the league in runs batted in
with 103, in total hits with 155 and
in doubles with 38.
Mize increased his home run total
to 81. Lonnie Frey of the Reds
has scored the most runs, 81. Pee

McFadden, on the other hand,
