IBEDIENT WILL BE LEADING PITCHER One of the best prospects for leading lead-ing pitchers of the American loaguo this year Is Hugh Bedient. The big youngster had a good season last year and was almost as big a factor In the pennant winning of the Red Sox as i was loe Wood He rounded out tho 'pitching staff, and altogether shared with Jean DubllC (of the Tigors) the honor of being the recruit sensation I of the year. Rut he did not come to his own until the world's series. In the fifth game of the series he pitched against Matbcwson and won, after perforniinc; as a rescuer in previous games. He was sent into the eighth the deciding decid-ing game acalnst the great Matty ami worked brilliantly until taken out to allow Henriksen to hat for him. With the confidence that his record rec-ord gives him. he looks ns cood as any one for the top of tho percentage column.
