CHICAGO, Dee. 2J, (API George Kell of Detroit we
credited today ai the first third beseman var to win the Amsri-
ean league batting crown and ha did if with the ciotett tiflith

The 1 70-pound Tiger, collecting two hits on the final day of
the 194? teat on, shaded Bostons lad Williams, who has paid hit
less in his last game, ,3429 to ,3427. Williams missed becoming
a five-time winner of the crown by two ten-thousands of point
in the slide-tule wtndup,
There have been one point
margins before, but never has
the edge had such a decimal de
cision as this one. Goose Goslln
of Washington grabbed the 1928
title by one point. Buddy Myer
of Washington had the same
close shave in 1935.
The 27-yearold Kell, who was
nabbed by- Philadelphia after
hammering .396 for Lancaster,
Pa., of the Interstate league in
1943, gathered 179 base hits last
season in 522 times at bat In 131
games.
Williams ' appeared In 155
games, had 194 hits In 566 trips.
