One peck at Llber In action even then wne enough to convince anyone that he was n natur al slugger. 1 Thero isn't a right-handed batter In the National league today who hits the ball harder than Lelber does. He are mil to have found his real stride and hla average is going to sour It he keeps on getting the two and three hita he haa been pounding out per game of late. Hank hits the ball on a line, but in the early gamea waa nrt getting many breaks. Many of rils drives tha,t went for put-outs w nuld have been extra-bnse hits hnd they been placed a few feet to either side. Out fielders and infleklers were robbing htm of hlta with spectacular catches. The law of averages now seenm to be working In his favor for his chives are dropping where tho fielders can- I not lay a hand on them. One-fourth of his hlta to date have been extra baee clouts. Arizona Vnrlteer To make hta hitting more deadly Lelber seems to have found the range of the park walls. In a recent game against the St. Louis Cardinals he hit a pair of home runs, one of them just about the longest ever hit in the Polo grounds, It struck the balcony railing some 428 feet from home pint. Lelber was a great athlete at the University of Arizona and no shrink ing violet when it eame to estimating hu own ability. Hunk thought he was a good ball player when he first struck the Giants' training camp and wanted everyone to know about It. He la one of the most powerful men in the game. It haa taken him quite some time to polish off the rough edges and to develop the balance and steadiness necessary to a big league regular. Now that be has finally begun to click In a big way It la a feather In Terry's cap for the Giants' m nun tier waa confident that Iielher would come through If given enough time.
