1 Aside from Carl E'rskine’s
L no-hit game; the fir ng of
i .rte map;. • rs, and mis
ellaneous fenus, fights and
finings, the real surprise of
- lie major league campaign is
the showing of three clubs—
1 the Phillies and Tigers, who
- were expected to do nuch
i worse.

3 running fairly true to early
estimates, unless you expect
1 ed the Indians to be out in
front and headed for the barn
by now. The Cubs surge may
"* be traced largely to Hank

Do you remember when the
National League had the close
races while the American
League season was over early
in September as far as the
pennant was concerned? Well,
at a recent check there were
32 games between the first and
eighth place teams in the
National, and only 18 between
«the similar teams in the
j American.
