Rumors
CHICAGO (AP)-Ted Williams
Boston's splendid splinter, isn't
hitting his weight, but bury those
rumors that he might quit base
ball before the season is over.
"Sure, I might have decided to
call it quits now if I had had a
bad season last year," said Wil
liams Sunday before a double-
header against the Chicago White
Sox.
"But t got olf to a bad start
last year and won the batting
championship, so why should 1
call it quits?
Williams, always confident, ex
pects to shake his present slump
and eventually get up above the
.300 mark.
"I think I came back too soon
after that trouble with my neck."
raid Williams. "There were about
40 at bats that I shouldn't have
had."
So far. he hasn't been able to
nntrack himself. He is batting a
feeble .183.
"So what." is Williams answer
to his bad start. "On May 20th
last year I was batting .224. By
the time the All-Star game came
around I was batting only .280.
But I finished up okay."
That he did. Williams ended the
season with a .328 average to cap
ture his sixth American League
batting championship.
Williams never has batted less
than .317 since breaking into the
big leagues in WW.
"The way reporters come after
me in every town you'd think 1
was batting .436." he said, laugh
ing. "Say. do you think Hank Aaron
(Milwaukee) can hit .400? I do."
said Williams. "He's got i good
start and that's what counts"
Once again the conversation re
turned to the possibility of retire
ment. "There are a lot of factors to
consider," said Williams. "Heck.
It's no secret that I want to hit
Son home runs." The man who
batted .408 in 1M1 has a career
tolal of 483 home runs, including
