In year when the Major Leagues boast the greatest array of short stops in the history of baseball, the Boston Red Sox' Johnny Pesky stands out today as probably the finest of them all
 The five-foot -nine-inch law who only a few years ago was club house boy out in his native Port land, Ore, and who only last Mon day was stopped one hit short of tying the Major league record of 12 consecutive hits, tied another stan dard yesterday when he tailed six times in a l4-10 slugiest, won by Boston over Jimmy Dykes Chicago White Sox.
 Including the 1our hits in yes terday's game, Pesky has garnered 39 in 91 times at bat for a .429 average to lead both leagues in batting. He also has scored the most runs = 30.
 With Ted Williams, Rudy York and Bobby Doerr joining Pesky ii1 the Boston hit parade, the American League leaders slammed four Chi cago pitchers for r safeties to set a new club record of 13 consecutive victories, topping their 1889 skein by one
