 New York, April 29.-(UP)--In spite of what Rudyard Kipling wrote about never the twain shall meet, east clashes with west in the major leagues today.
 The first intersecttonal series is on. The western clubs in the Ma tional league swing into the east and the eastern teams in the Amer ican league invade the west. It's a sort of day of reckoning in base ball, a time to cast up accounts and to see what has happened now that the law of averages is beginning to get in its licks. Rockies who seemed to be potential Ty Cobbs down south have dwindled to mere mortals and some of them to pygmies. Class Is beginning to tell in both the team standings and the individual aver- ages. lights of the first fortnight of the 1941 season:
 Best American league rockies Phil Rizzuto, shortstop who was brought up from Kansas City by the New York Yankees. He's hitting BOP. covering ground like spring rain and already has broken up one ball game with an 11th-inning home run. It looks like nothing but a serious injury can keep him from becoming one of the top shortstops in the game.
 Best National league rookie Walker Cooper, catcher for the St. Louis Cardinals and brother Of Mort Cooper. Cardinal pitcher In nine games he has become the Carcin. als' No. catcher and has raised the problem of what to do with Don Padgett, the outfielder who was con verted into e receiver. Cooper S hitting .333.
 On the Bench
 Early season bust-Lou Novikon' the Mad Russian" whom the Cni- cago Cubs brought up from the Coast league. He brought With nm 8 reputation of being able to nit any kind of pitching and of smack ing had balls for extra base hits. with an average of .l54, about the only thing he has been hitting IS thin air. Failure to hit and his dis Appointing performance in the field has caused Manager Jimmy Wilson to bench him.
 They're at it again--the Cincin- uati Reds. after a shaky start, are hack in the groove. depending on sood pitching and a tight infield to win ball games. The Reds have staeed their speclalty-winning by one run-four times already this rear. The scores: 7-e. l-o. ss2. 3-2.
