SOUTHERN LEAGUE

Veteran Larry Bachiu of the pennant-winning Regina Red Sox, carried off the batting title with a torrid .466 mark accumulated with 27 hits in 58 times at bat. His former teammate and current playing-manager of the Yorkton Cardinals, Ed Stefureak came in second just 16 percentage points behind with a lofty .450 average compiled with 36 hits, tops in that department, in 80 times at bat. Stefureak was also the circuit's leading home run hitter with seven. Swift Current shortstop Dennis Williams was best in the run scoring category with 25 and led in doubles with six. Melville third baseman Doug Biro and Regina catcher Andy Logan hit three triples each to tie for the lead in that offensive grouping.

Lefthander Wayne LeBere had the best winning percentage of pitchers in the league. He won six of seven decisions for an .857 average. Import righthander Howard Terry of the Melville Millionaires led in a pair of categories, strikeouts with 54, and bases on balls issued with 55. Bill Sobkow of the Yorkton Cardinals gave up the most hits, 82. and runs, 57. LeBere's win total of six led the league while Terry's six losses were the most absorbed by any chucker over the season.
