An analy als of th batting; performances of Babs Ruth this season discloses that th bit; slugger complied one of the most remarkable, if not the greatest, record In major league hlatory, despite the fact that he failed to lead the league hitters and was only, able to tie Cy Williams of the PhllUba (or the home run leadership, with 41 circuit blows, 13 behind the world's record he aet in 1.821. The complete record ot the Babe, however, and the story of hit versatile greatness the work that tamed him the crown of the most valuable American league player shows him as the big star of the year.

In attaining that high high nark, O'Neill was aided by tho rules of that year, which provided that bases un built should be fig ured at hits, when a batter was hit by a pitcner, he was charged with time at bat and credited with a base hit. Even wlth tfroie advantages O'Neill must have been a great hitter.

Yet It Is ecrtaln that many bases on bollo figured In the compilation of O'Neill's .482 mark. IJnofllolal records for ths 1923 season showed that Babe Ruth participated In the entire schedule of tho Yankees, 152 gurnet, a sec ord In Itself for Ruth.
