Unique Record Set
BALTIMORE (MP)-Quarterback
John Unitas of the Baltimore
Colts is going to make the Nation-
al Football League record book
the hard way. He caught his own
pass.
It happened in Sunday's game
against the Detroit Lions. Unitas
threw the ball, it hit Ray Krouse,
big Lion lineman, and bounced
straight back to Unitas. He caught
it and gained a yard.
Joseph T. Labrum, assistant to
Commissioner Bert Bell, said he
thinks it is the first time a player
caught his own pass in the league.
At least, it is the first time in the
10 years he has been compiling
the record book and he told John
Steadman, publicity director for
the Colts, he is going to include
it.

multiple tie.

New Batting
1 11
Ryule Adopted
For Baseball
CHICAGO (MP)-A new batting
title requirement rule, based on
total appearances at the plate,
yesterday was written into the
books for organized baseball.
The rule was adopted by base-
ball's playing rules committee and
supersedes the old regulation re-
quiring 400 official times at bat
to qualify for the championship.
Jim Gallagher, chairman of the
committee, said the new rule
reads:
"The individual batting cham-
pion shall be the player with the
highest batting average.
"Total appearances at the plate
shall include official times at bat,
plus bases on balls, times hit by
pitcher, sacrifice hits, sacrifice
flys, and times awarded first base
because of interference or ob-
struction."
He must be credited with as
many or more total appearances
at the plate in league games as
the number of games (154) that
each club plays, multiplied by 3.1.
