PORTSIDE PRACTICE

An unsung hero in the Cubs in- augural triumph was Lefty Bob Chiuman, who gave the Cubs a chance to look at some southpawing in two batting practice sessions in preparation for Newhouser. Chip man, bothered by a sore arm most of the season. which held him to a 3-5 record. whistled portside pitch es at the Bruin batters for more than an hour Tuesday and Wednes- day. In Tuesdays pre-series work out, the slim portsider warmed up for more than half-hour before serving up his Sunday pitches. That may be why the Cubs so readily waded into Newhouser's swift slants.

Majorleague
 Pace Settlers
(By The Associated Press)

FuJJlnB a Ilndl CNecK on Llle Oul- stan ding individual performers during the big league season just closed, it becomes decidedly ap- parent that Tommy Holmes was quite a handy boy around the Boston Braves balL park. All Tommy did was close out the season in either first or second place in all departments of batting except the clouting of triples.
 A close runner-up to the Cubs Phil Cavarretta for the National League batting crown. Holmes led the loop in scoring runs, in number of hits, in twin base blows and in homers. In runs batted in, he was a close second to Brooklyn's Dixie Walker. All-in-all not bad seasons work.
 i Moving over to the junior circuit, we find the Yankees George Stirn- weiss putting the rest of the lads in the shade. During the final week of the regular campaign, Georgie moved right past Tony Cuccinello of the Chisox to take over control of the batting title by a one-point margin-narrow but enough. Stirnweiss also ranks first m nuns scored, number of hits, in triples and for good measure, is top man of both leagues in base steal ing, with 33 offerings. Moses was out in front in collecting doubles, but Stirnweiss was right behind .him, to turn in an all-around of fensive performance that ranks up there with Holmes in the National. The only place where Stirnweiss missed out was in busting, Junior Stephens of the Browns leading the American in the home run division.
 l Mound artists in both leagues mainly finished up in the order they had held for the last few weeks of the season. The only big change was in the National, where Ken Burkhardt moved right in behind his Cardinal teammate, Harry Brecheen, to cop second place among the twirlers. 1 In the American, Bob Muncrief of the Browns finished up a notch ahead of Detroit ace Hal New houser, though with only about half as many wins hung up during the campaign.
