ju vidaus santvarkos ir nuo vi
so to, kaip jos supranta piliecio

nei viena valstybe neturi tel

taip tvarkytis, kaip visu tautu

He will prove a big attraction on

Peck's complete season record
shows that he has either walked
or hit safely or driven in a wait
ing runner exactly half of the
times he's been called on. Ken
nedy, too, has apparently relished
these clutch assignments, running
up a total of one walk and six
hits in thirteen attempts for a
800 average. One of these broke
up a twelve inning struggle with
Washington and another tempor-
arily saved crucial game with
Boston. In one stretch, he deliv-
cred a hit five straight times.
Yet, oddly enough, neither of
these invaluable clutch operators
can quite break into the regular
lineup. In Peck's case, it's a weak
throwing arm, while Kennedy
seems unable to hit consistently
day after day. But that's alright
with manager Boudreau for he
knows he can call on either of
them in a pinch and it's a fifty
fifty bet that they'll come through.

HAL PECK AND BOB KENNEDY ARE
LAUDED AS PINCH HITTERS

AS the day by day fortunes of
the Cleveland Indians are chroni-
cIed in your favOritc newspaper or
related by your own "private eye"
sportscaster, the biggest bouquets
are usually tossed at the Boud-
reaus, the Gordons, or the Lem
OnS.
But every now and then a les
ser known member of the wig
wan cast will be favored with a
well-deserved burst OF praise.
Such pair is the Indians unsung
but invaluable pinch-hitting duo
Of Hal Peck and Bob Kennedy.
Separately and together right
handler Kennedy and southpaw
Peck have piled up an amazing
record of dependability in the
toughest Of all baseball assign
ments-that of coming off the
bench "cold" to deliver a clutch
hit when the opposing pitcher is,
more often than not, bowling over
the Indians with unpleasant regu-
