Since re turning from Korea, Ted's average Is 378 compared to his lifetime fig ure of 346 from 1939 through 1983. He hit .407 In 37 games last season. Williams doesn’t appear among the league's leading hitters because he hasn’t been “officially at bat” enough times. But he has a nine point spread over the official lead er, Irv Noren of the New York Yankees, and the only thing that can keep him out of the running is the possibility he won’t have 400 official at bate by the end of the season. HITS HOMER NO. 16 Ted, who crashed homer No. 16 in the Red Sox’ 10-2 rout of the Cleveland Indians Thursday, has batted 184 times this year and banged out 67 hits that included 11 doubles and drove In 47 runs. Since his return from Korea, WO-, liams has played 96 games in which he blasted 29 homers and knocked In 81 runs. Williams’ 16th homer sent the Red Sox off to a 2-0 first-inning lead Thursday and paved the way for Boston’s second victory over the Indians in 16 games this sea son. It also enabled the New York Yankees to slice the Indians first place lead to 1% games via a 10-0 rout of the Chicago White JENSEN HOMERS TWICE Jackie Jensen hit two homers and drove in six runs for the Red Sow while Whitey Ford spun his third shutout and gained his lOtti victory of the year for the Yankees behind a 13-hit bombardment.

Filmed Ones The author or today’s column Ul Jack Gator's vacation ab settee is prodneer of NBC’s “TV Playhouse,* “Mr. Peepers,” etc. By FRED COE Written For United Press NEW YORK UP ln televi sion, one of the surest ways to start an argument is to bring up the issue of live dramatic shows versus filmed dramatic shows. As long as I’ve been working in the land of the coaxial cables— and that’s close to a decade—the proponents of both sides have yaged a running battle. As of right now, I regret to say, because I’m a veteran fighter for the live shows, it looks as though the celluloid boys are winning They're winning because of a va riety of reasons, but mainly be cause it’s easier, though not neces sarily less expensive, to put shows on. film. How much simplier, say the film exponents, to know to the last tenth of a second, how long your show will ran. And to prepare your show weeks, maybe months to advance, so that you can re-ehoot scenes whenever necesary. TRUE WITH RESERVATIONS All of these arguments are true— with reservations. I have produced nothing btR live dramatic shows In my 10> years in television shows like “First Person,” the “Philco and GObdyeaf Television Playhouses,” and “Mr. Peepers,” “Television Playhouse" oh NBC TY 52 horir-long shows n And fbr me, the iive shows still have it over films. Not Just be cause there is a greater “psycho logical Immediacy” the feeling that living theatre gives to an atM ■ ence—but because 'the producers lof the live shows, most of which orlgihate from New York, have paid some attention to that factor without which h&' shows would amount to anything In any form, and that is the script. WRITERS IMPORTANT Because—when you come right down to plain facts about plays on television—it is what the actors say, as well as how they say it, that lifts a show, any show, from the long, endless slough of medi ocrity. And in Hollywood, where most shows are filmed, the writer —virtually without exception—is a plodding cipher, whose talents are measured in terms of quantity, not quality. Oh my Shows the writer is treat ed as a creative person,' riot as a cog. He follows each production through from 'the first script con ference to the last second of the show. He is paid top rates, and after 17 losses to 21 games. Southpaw Bob Cruse pitched a flVe-hit shutout to wfn the opener for the Buns 4-0 at the expense of Dte Voiselle. Joe Emery hurled the nightcap, scattering tone hits as he pitohed his first full game of the season. The 8-7 wfn was his fifth victory. .

About twice a week, he schedules an appointment with a dozen House members up tor re-election. They meet to the Cabinet Rbom where a photographer from the Republican National Committee shoots pictures of each congress man shaking hands and smiling at the chief executive.

Col. Percy Thompson, Mrs. John Eisenhower’s father, Is making his first real visit to the White House since the inauguration. He has one of the guest rooms on the second floor of the executive mansion.
