for the records to catch him

New York (AP)--Never mind what the record book says, Henry Aaron, the man with the beau- tiful swing and the disposition to match, has arrived at baseball immortality. It will take the record book time to catch up with him when he hits his next home run and ties Babe Ruth's record for career homers. But even if Aaron never hits another home folk- run he has attained a place in American lore achieved by only a relatively few base- ball greats.Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Stan Musial, Bob Feller, and only a precious few more.

Mention those names and even those who have no other interest in baseball know who, they are. The non-fan may not know what records the immortal established, but they know the men were great and did something spectacular. So it will be with Aaron.
