Ted William. 0ny Wakefleld has fallen behind schedule among the big hitters. The others have picked up Just about where they left off and the scramble still will be keen along most of the remaining route. There is little chance now that anyone will come close to overtaking Babe Ruth's high mark of 60 homers, or the two big years that Jimmy Foxx and Hank Greenberg had in the past but It will take around 45 homers to lead the two circuits, and the four present leaders all have a shot at this target While Joe DIMag glo's general av-erage av-erage baa been well below other years his lifetime mark la around .S37 (he Yankee outfielder outfield-er hasn't lost his grip en the home-mn home-mn bat.

In the way of a home run market. It Is almeat a certainty that the American Amer-ican will have the four top men. Baseball again haa proved, aa boxing proved in the case of Joe Louis, that the punch is the last trnng to leave the athlete's system. Bank Greenberg certainly has proved it to a marked decree. Hank is no elastic cat around first base the old legs are not what the young legs used to be. They never are. But the Tiger slugger has proved that he can keep on getting his home runs, whatever else may have happened through the enervating process of added years and a long war layoff. Your Money's Worth From which anort does one set the best return for the money ho invests aa a spectator? We offered this query to a rather large group of sports-loving fanatics who follow ine tortunes of many games. We began be-gan to figure out the coat, clua the excitement, the thrill and the sat- unacuon derived, it broke down something like this: 1. For World Series game, the cost for reserved aeat la $5.50. The coat of a aeat for a series of three games la $16.50. aV For an Army-Notre Dame or aa Army-Navy football gam tat top aeat coat to $4.40. The price la bo higher for a MlchW gaa Ohio State or a Pennsylvania Pennsyl-vania Army contest for any football contest. For an open Golf contest the coat to $3.50. 4. For an International Polo match the coat tag la around $5. 5. No championship or high-ranking high-ranking basketball gome costs more than $$ or $4 for seat. . Yon can aee a national ten, nis championship match for no more than $5 If that much. 9. For a day at the Olympic gamea yon could get a good seat for $3. a. Yon can get one of the beat seata at the Kentucky Derby, the Preakneaa or the Belmont for prices that range from $5 to $10. It waa hero the argument warmed up, all on one side. Then why should a boxing match range from $16.50 to $100, when on a general gen-eral average the contestants Involved are far below the average kill of baseball, football and other start, including golf? One answer might bo that the public is willing to pay. It is, of course, au up to tne sporting public. It still can be said that no law exists Which forcea anyone to pay for more than a show la worth - and the public to the only agent that fan handle the situation. 1 (ill fl3B M "Ul'il It agfJn-I still don't believe woman can - - I I 1 possibly resist Gregory Peck for two hours!"

The Yale classic festivities fes-tivities coincided with the opening of Jimmy's latest movie "Two Sisters Sis-ters From Boston" in the colleee town. Both Yale and the picture people made the most of it. No result re-sult was announced officially, but observers say Yale lost another close one. Believe It er not, the class of 1913 adopted Durante.

News that Jimmy Durante would be a Yale commencement figure drew out greater crowds than any commencement in years and there are those who insist that the closine line of the famous old Yale theme song was rendered "For God, for country and lor the scnnozzie.
