HOOPER APPEARS AS WONDERFUL BATTER Two Homers, Single, Four- Runs, Two Passes in Game New York, Sept. 14.—Right Fielder Harry Hooper of the Chicago White Sex stole Babe Ruth's thunder yes- torday. He hit two home runs, a single, drew a couple bases on balls and scored four runs in the western team’s thirteenth triumph over the Yankees this season. And he was sup- posed to have been crippled, due to an injured leg which has kept him out of the same muc hthis season. Ruth incidentally, playing on his home grounds, went hitless in three times at bat. None of the balls he hit went beyvond the infield. Hooyer shared his brilliant 'per- formance with his team mate, Pitch- Dick Kerr, whose victory was the sixth in seven games he has pitched against the Yankees this season. New York's defeat alded Cleveland's cause in the American league pen- nant race. By winning from Phila- delphia the Ohio aggregation harrow- ed New York's lead to five points. Manager Speaker, out of the game hecause of an injured knee, had a worthy substitute in Wood. In four times at bat, he hit a home run, a triple, a single, scored three runs and made three put outs. Another prominent hitter yester- ay was Leftfielder Barber of the icago Cubs, whose four hits gave him a perfect batting average. As both the Glants and the Pitts- bursh Pirates won in the National league their relative positions were not materially changed.

Neither, however, was knocked down Tendler was more aggressive than the Chicago boxer and this, together with cleaner punches, was a big factor in glving him the popular declsion. The Philadelphian had a slight advan- tage in the first, second, third and sixth rounds: Freidman took ‘the sev- enth, while in the rourth, fifth and eighth honors were about even. Tt was the third time the two men have met. On Aug. 24, they fought an eight-round draw Iin the same ring in which they met tonight. JOCKEY IS KILLED. Clarksburg, W.
