Even the Yankees and Dodgers, good enough to carry off a pair of pennants, won of their starts, and only football should be judged in much the same manner. There are too many strong teams in the field today for old grads to keep expecting one victory after another. Many have now even reached the point of tossing out teams that happen to have lost a single game. On this basis where would the Dodgers have been last spring when even the Giants beat them three straight to open the season? As Bob Zuppke once said, "Out in that Big Ten I can lose every game and still look good." And that might be true. Accidents, tough breaks, injuries and other details can often make a difference of two or three touchdowns in a game. The psychological setup has wide ranges. The main answer is that any team schedule can playing a look back on a good season if it can win a majority of its starts. Last season, for example, Minnesota won every game yet Minnesota had the closest possible calls against Michigan, Northwestern and Ohio State, with whom just a slender flop in luck the other way might have brought the gallant Gophers three setbacks. That's the way football is. One or two breaks, especially in the passing game, can raise an abnormal Cain. It has amount of been that way every season, and this should be no exception. wil- - two-thir- first-cla- ' league baiting title, he called to mind a couple of great swatsmiths of a bygone era Hugh Duffy and Shoeless Joe Jackson. Duffy has been called the greatest hitter of all time. Back in 1894 he was fashioning a truly great bat- ting average, hitting well above .430. Toward the end of the season, Duf- fy's friends wanted him to quit in order to protect his great mark. Duffy turned thumbs down, lie went up and took his cuts right in order. When the season had ended, Hugh had batted an unbelievable .438. Williams boasted a .405 average this year when the Red Sox pulled into Philadelphia for the final three- game series of the year. Williams' friends, like Duffy's, urged him to sit the three games out. He had bested the .400 mark and would be the first American leaguer to do it since Har- ry Heilman hit .403 in 1923. In fact, he would be the first major league batter to turn the trick since Bill Terry hit .401 in 1930. ss The 'Next Year Job Messrs. MacPhail and Durocher of Brooklyn's Dodgers are not thinking at the moment of any revenge on the Yankees next fall. Their first move will be to stall off the Cardinal charge. Sam Breadon and Branch Rickey both believe that said Cardinals will 3 1L j f j 4 j v Fitz-simmo- In the matter of style, Williams reminds one of Shoeless Joe. The latter, like Williams, was on the tall, loose and lean side. Williams is free of all tension at the plate. So was Jackson. All pitchers looked alike to them. Both have had almost perfect hand and wrist action and both hit anything and everything offered to them by baffled pitchers. Jackson and Williams have other attributes in common. Both weighed 175 'pounds when they entered the big time. Both were tall men Williams six feet three and Jackson six feet one. Both hitters were born that way. They belong among the natural hitters, along with Nap Lajoie and Babe Ruth. In handing out honors it is impossible to overlook Rogers Horns-by- , holder of a record that e belongs among the great est. From 1921 through 1925 Horns- by averaged slightly more than .401.
