Sian MusiaI,
 Batting Siar

NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-Stan Mu- sial, brilliant Culielder and first haseman of the world champion St Louis Cardinals, all but made a clean sweep of the National Leagues batting hcnors in l946 according to the official averages released.
 In capturing the senior loops batting crown fer the second time in his four-year Major League car ger, the 26-year- -old-clouter from Donora, Pa, compiled a percentage of .365, went to bat the most times, 624; scored the most runs, 124; col lected the most hits, 228; amassed the most total bases, 366; gathered the most singles, 142; the most doubles, 50, and the most triples, 20.
 Only in the matter of home runs was Musial surpassed by a rival Circuit hitting honors went to Ralph Kiner of Pittsburgh, who led the locp with 23 home runs. This gave Kiner the distinction of becoming only the second National League player since 1900 to lead the circuit in home runs in his first year in the Majors. Harry Lumley. of the 1904 Brooklyn Dodg- CTS, was the other with nine.
 Pete Reiser, Fleet Dodger out fielder, stole the most bases, 34, in cluding seven successful thefts of home in nine attempts. His team mate, Ed Stanky, had the most sacrifice hits, 20
 Although Mel O5t appeared only inirequently in the lineup, the New York Giants manager increased a number of his own records. He played in his 21st season with the same club; boosted his run scoring mark to 1859, his total bases to 5,o41, his extra bases to 2,165, his long hits to 1,071 and by hitting Che home run brought his National League lifetime record to 511.
 Team batting laurels went to the Cards with ,265 mark, one point better than the Boston Braves .264.

SPORTS 0DDITY
 OF 1946

NEW YORK, Dec 24-Mrs. Mil Louis Cardinal-Brooklyn Dodger re- gular season tie for the National League pernant has been voted the No. sports oddity of l946 by a close margin over the Ted Williams shift.
 Twelve of the 56 writers who participated in the annual Asso- ciated Press poll to determine the oldest event of the year, agreed that the Red Bird standoff was tops while II thought that the Cleveland and St Louis shift for slugger Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox was the strangest occur renee The other votes were well scattered.
 Although the Chicago Cubs and the New York Giants played off a tie game which decided the 1908 pennant in favor of the Cubs the Card-Dcdger deadlock marked the first time in Major League base ball that two teams wound up the regular season in a dead heat for the title.
 The two teams entered the final day of the campaign snarled for the lead and both contestants lost, resulting Tn a best-two -out-of- three game playoff for the flag which the i,a tttfn e.k, i,l,t games.
 williams Shift"
 The now famous Williams Shift" vas employed by Manager Lou BOudreau or the Indians after the Bostcn strcng boy had belted three home runs off Tribal hurlers in the opener of double header. Boud- reau moved practically his entire team into right field and Manager Ed Dyer of the Cards used a var iation of the move in the World Series. The strategy paid off as Williams was held to five singles.
 Stoppage oi a second game of a twin bill between the Dodgers and Chicago Cubs because of an inva- sicn of gnats at Ehbets Field drew five votes and Enos Slaughter's mad dash from first to home with the Cards payoff run against the Red Sox in the last game of the World Series gained four votes.
