NEW YORK, Aug. 11-N9-While
New York's Johnny Mize captures
headline attention with his drama
tic surge toward Babe Ruth's
home u record, the Phillies'
Harry Walker continues to set a
steady pace toward the National
League batting crown.
Walker, shortening up a little on
his bat, doesn't concentrate on
distance in the Mize manner but
included in his 129 hits are IL
triples, topping both major lea
CUES. At .344 Walker enjoys a 49,
point edge on %runner-up Walker
Cooper Of the Giants.
Although he dropped three points
during the week, according 10
averages including SUNDAYS
games, Walker lost only one
point of his lead to the Giants
catcher who also fell off a bit to
1925.
Cincinnati's Augie Galan drop
ped nine points but still holds
third at .317, three points better
than Frank Cuisine of Pittsburgh
at .314. Phil C%avarretta of Chicago
is fifth at 1909 followed by Dixie
Walker of Brooklyn and Andy
Pafko OF Chicago, tied at 1907.
Mize and Boston's Johnny Hopp
are all even at .306 with Boston's
Jimmy Holmes rounding out the
top 10 with a .304 mark.
Mize had a big week. c,outing
four homers to make it SO for the
year, exactly even with the Babe
for the same date in 1927 but
actually seven games ahead. The
Giants have played only 102 games
as compared to 100 by the '27
Yanks.
In addition to the home run
leadership, Mize is tops with 50
runs batted in and 100 runs scor-
ed. Other departmental leaders
are Frank Baumholtz of Cincin-
natl in total hits, 1877, and doubles,
Is, and Jackie Robinson of Brook
Ign in solen bases, 16.
Although Ewell Blackwell of
Cincinnati has lost his last three
starts after winning 16 in a row,
he still tops the pitchers with an
1875 won and lost mark. He drop
ped his only start of the week, 2-1,
in II innings at Chicago. However,
the lean righthander's total of IA
strikeouts is by far the best.

Offensive Will
Feature Wilson Attack
By GENE
Star Sports Writer

Well concentrate on passing
and the old razzle-dazzle stuff
this season." said Coach Hank
Madden of the defending State
champion Wilson Cyclones last
night in a telephone converse
ton with the Morning Star. :
take a look at our line and
you'll see why. Both first
string ends, Bull Newsome
$50 and Sturgeon Speight
Q75) are back, but there you
can stop. Both tackles and
both guards graduated, and
our All-State center, Jimmy
Zrakas, is being taught the
tricks of fullback. Therefore,
we must find some one to fill
I'D the center of the line and,
with only sophomores and
freshmen having enough
weight, you see wat we are
I'D against this season.
"Dicky Davis, u fine pass
err, is back and with his toss
ing and Speight and Newsome
on the flanks, Wilson should
create a few headaches. Zrak-
as, who tips the scales at 165,
may fill in nicely for graduate
=, Dick Hackney at full. Billy
Gardner (155) and Ham Crow
der (145) are the left and right
halfbacks Of this years out
fit. Crowder played almost
half of each. game last sea-
son and it will be he and Zrak-
as who will do most. of the run
ming for the Cyclones. Gard
ner is only a freshman, but
shows possibilities.
"Bucky Draughn, u second
string guard in '46, will take
over Zrakas' old pivot slot
this campaign. Jimmy Davis
Q7O), Malphus Bradbury Q65),
and Dick Gillett (160), no re-
lation to the great Jack, will
hold up the remainder of the
front wall along with a couple
of 200 pound Junior varsity
boys"
Wilson, Madden disclosed,
has only one pre-conference
game and it is with Central
High Of Charlotte September
IL.
Madden explained that Will
son Highs football practice be-
gan yesterday with only 1S
boys turning out. Most of the
recruits are working in the to-
bacco fields and will not get
into grid garb until next week.
Coach Madden sounded very
discouraged last night, but Will
mington fans remember the
same chatter last year when
Wilson captured the North
Carolina Class IA Conference
crown and whipped Whining
ton by a one touchdown mar
gin. One of the tbs came on a
sleep end play. The other was
a pass by Dickey. Davis to one
of his backs and a lateral off
to Bull Newsome, who scamp
cred the field for the decisive
core. So watch Wilson'S team.
It is the darkhorse Of the -
ference.
