Williams Takes
 His Place Among Baseball IInInortals

Philadelphia, Sept. 29-(UPl--His name is Theodore Francis Williams, his age is a and although he meas ures six feet three inches in height, he weighs only i75 after eating a couple of thick steaks but this lean southpaw swinger who plays for the Boston Red Sox ranked with baseballs immortals today.
 Toothpick Ted, whose proweSs with A bat is exceeded only by @ natural flair for the dramatic, slashed out six hits in eight times at bat in his teams 1.-two games yesterday to finish the season with batting average of .4067, the first time in Il years that any major leaguer has batted that high. :.
 After bouncing along almost all season with such clocklike consist. ency that his average rarely fell below .4i0, Williams made only one hit in four ofiicial chances last Sat- urday and dropped to .S996.
 But when he was through swing ing against four Athletics pitchers as the Red Sox split Q twin bill he became the first major leaguer to hang up @ 400 batting average since Bill Terry hit .40l with the Giants In 1880 and the first American Leaguer to accomplish the feat since Harry Heilmann of the Tigers bat ted .403 in 1923.
 Remember?
 Since the American League was formed in 1900, only four batters before Williams hit 400. Larry La Jole hit .405 in 1901, Ty Cobb .42C in 1911 ard 40 in 1912, George Sisler .407 in 1920 and APO in 1922 and Heilmann .4o3 in 1923.
 Williams slugged out four straight hits of Fowler, Vaughan and Shir- ley yesterday before he was stopped in the opener and then connected for hits on his first two tries in the nightcap against Caliguri. All oi his hits were drives that carried beyond reach of outfielders or ia- flelders.
 One of his hits was his S7th homer of the season which gave him the major league homer title over Dolph CaInilli of the Dodgers who hit S4. During the season williams made i86 hits to lead that division, scored lS5 runs, drew l5l passes and famed % times. He drove in 120 runs to finish fourth in that department.
