his ability to duplicate last mark early season reports queried as to whether he would break his home-run record before the first of September and reports of the fhiddle of July wondered how much he would shatter his old mark Some radical writers thought that perhaps he would get as many as forty home-runs in the season Now the Big Bambino has hit out thirty-three of them and he has more than two
