Ted Needs Five
Hits in Three
Weekend Tits

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 81
(R) - Ted Williams figures he
needs five hits against the Ath-
letics in three games during the
weekend to become the first
American Lacquer in ID years to
hit 400 or more for a season.
The tall Boston Red Sox out
fielder is confident he can get
those five all-important bingles
but says he's going to play "even
if ! finish at $780,"
Somebody started rumor
Williams might not play in the
single game today and the dou-
bleheader Sunda.' in order to
protect his present .401 average
but Ted assured "I'm going to be
out there taking my cut"
The last American League
player to hit over 400 was Harry
Heilman Of the Detroit Tigers,
who wound up with .403 in 1923.
Bill Terry Of the Giants was the
last National Lacquer to turn the
trick, getting .401 in 1880.
To keep in tiptop shape, Will
Jams has worked out the last two
days at Shibe Park, spending
nearly an hour each day at the
plate whaling at batting practise
pitches.
Williams slumped in the Bos-
ton series at Washington, getting
only one hit in seven times at

and shoot with the best of them, not exclud-
ing such redoubtable figures as Jesse James,

However, she was not killer. Legend
and fact both have it that she never fired
shot when a smile would do the trick, and she
achieved a great deal more through the use OF
feminine wiles than she did with gun.
