To Improve Season Averages

Let no one tell you that the
American League pennant race
is over and that a let down
OF play will be seen in the
three-game series beginning al
Briggs Stadium Friday night
between the Detroit Tigers and
Cleveland Indians.
Friday nights game will be
followed by single games Sat-
urday and Sunday.
Detroit's Tigers will be
fighting for fourth place, and
a share OF World Series money,
while the Indians, in the pro-
cess OF annexing only their
third pennant in the history
Of the league, have their
sights set on a few records.
Chiefly the one held by the
World Champion New York
Yankees of 1927. That team,
on which the famous George
Herman (Babe RUTH Ruth
played. finished the season
with 10 victories: highest
pennant winning percentage

AL Lopez, skipper Of the In
dams. would like to surpass
that record Also. Senior Lopez
and Big Mike Garcia would
like to see the latter reach

naming games. you can be-
lieve that he'll be given every
opportunity TO hit the charmed
