TEXAS LONGHORNS DEFEAT CRENSONS BY 6 TO 3 SCORE
Cowboys Hit Ball When Hits Mean Runs to Beat
 AIabamdf
By nuKE MERRITT

University, April 29.-(Special.)- Hitting when hits meant runs today accounted for the 6 to victory of the Texas university Longhorns here this afternoon. The game was featured by long hits and good pitch ing by both hurlers. and though the visitors accumulated II bingles, it was not due to any faul of McMillan.
 The Cowboys took a one-run lead in the first inning on Nolen's single and Dunnaway's triple In the third they put another across when Par sons connected with a fast one and rode it for three cushions. scoring on a squeeze play. In the fourth, another resulted when Oden hit for three bags and scored on Boyd's sin gle to center. The last two were put over when Leissler was hit by Me Milan and scored ahead of Oden when this husky hit the ball over left field fence for a home run.
 AIabnma's Runs
 Alabama's runs came in the sixth and seventh. Gazzolo tripled in the sixth. Oliver strolled and Elmore went safe on an error. Al Clemens singled, scoring Gazzolo and Oliver Clemons was run down and tagged out between second and first trying to stretch his hit into a double. In the seventh, Davis hit fly over sec ond and countered when Gazzolo tripled for the second time. Ala bama had other opportunities to score. but could do nothing with Ponsford's southpaw slants in the plnches. His pitching, with the hit ting of Oden and Dunnaway, fea- tured for the Texans.
 For Alabama, Gazzola and Hall stood out. Alabama meets Louisiana State in a two-g game series Monday and sruaedaV Score.

 New York, April 29.-Kenneth Will Hams of the St. Louis Browns is growing hitter. Growing hitters de- velop into sluggers. The difference between a slugger and a hitter in , baseball is the difference between a steam whistle and a fog siren. The whistle makes a noise that carries all over town when it is time>to knock, off work and eat. and the siren makes a noise that carries all over town and into the next county.
 Of the sluggers Of baseball in these days there are Ruth ana p'red Williams of the Phillies; in other days there were Brouthers, Sam Thompson, Delehanty-Ed Delehanty, not the younger Delehanty, Pete Browning, Anson. who would have been more of a slugger If he had been able to run faster than a wooden legged horse, Ewing, Stivetts and others whose names might be cited.
 Willie Keeler, who was one of the best batters in the history of base ball, could not be called slugger. Nor can Ty Cobb, with all If bis super batting, be so termed. He is an artast. So was keeler. Their bat ting is the top hole batting of tine skilled athlete to whom the wooden stick he wields is but the prolonga- ton of his arms and which he handles with such dexterity that 1t seems to be a part of him.
 Iris Speaker is near slugger. He can hit two baggers more often than any player in durance but he does not seem to be able to hit home runs and three baggers with any prodigaI- ity.
 Williams of St. Louis may become the Babe Ruth, Jr., of the baseball league for he has done what no other player in the American league ever has done, except Ruth. Also he has done something that Ruth hasn't done. He has hit three home runs in one game. He did this April 22 against the pitchers of the Chicago American league club.

Williams May RiUal Babe
 Ruth s Home Run Record

One afternoon in conversation with Ruth he was asked if he was satis- fled with his batting. Did you ever hear of ball player who was satis- fled with anything he had done on the field?" he said. "Of course I'm proud of what I've done but I've got more to do. I've got to hit three home runs in one game and then I've got to hit four home runs in one game and I've also got to hit six runs in two games in succession to put this home run business where there will be no one to rival me. I'm not greedy about it. I'm merely looking for inc reputatian of the thing. If anybody's got to have it. l can't see any req son why that somebody shouldn't be me-
 Now he has been headed off from the three home runs in one game mark by player of his own league.
 He beat you to it, said the base ball critic to Ruth, referring to the performance of Williams.
 He had to do some hitting to do 1t, though" said the Yankee exile. You gotta give him credit. I know because you've got to catch three of them just right if you're goin to lift the ball three rings around the rosy in one afternoon. Besides l ain't playin'."
 That's just it. Ruth isn't playing. There always will be the interval of 1922 to take into calculation when the historians of the future write about Ruth.
 Having batted three home runs in one day Williams took up the task and batted another on the next day. April 2S. That gave him four home runs in two successive days. That feat tied Ruth's record, made in 1921.
 On the third day. April 24, Will Hams batted another home run. That gave him five in succession in three consecutive games and that also tied Ruths record of 1921. On the fourth day April 25. Williams batted an other home run and that tied Ruth again for a similar fete.
 Will Williams equal the record that Ruth had made in other respects? Can he bat as many home runs in a sea son as Ruth has batted and will he be the batter this year who will sur pass Ruth? Who knows except per haps ouija board and it won't do to bank too heavily on that

Leading Hitters in Three Leagues

Chicago, April 29.-Kenneth Will Hams, the hard hitting outfielder with the St. Louis Browns. who start ed the baseball world by cracking Babe Ruth's home run record for the first two weeks of the season when he smashed out his sixth circuit crive, is at the top of the batters in the American league, according to averages released today and which include Wednesdays games.
 Williams is tied with Iris Speaker, the veteran leader of the Cleveland Indians, Each has an average Of .4f9.
