The big part of the show was Ruth,

This enormous outpourng lined UP so
many automobiles or the street out
side that new traffc regulations were
necessary for the occasion. Ruth,
variously manned UP as to knees and
ribs, slid q home run over the right
field fence in the first inning, and
after that struck out twice and walked
once. 4 point was stretched to let

The hitting was spasmodic, thc feId
ing mottled, but with bright spots; the
playing uneven, the contest of pre-
vailinr dull tone, but relieved by home
runs rom the poles of Ruth, Walter
Pipp, Leon Cadore and Hy Myers.

Hoyt Has Bad Inning
Waite Hoyt came up with better
form than in any previous game, even
thcugh he was dubbed severely in the
fourth inning. Six hits and seven runs
in one round didn't upset him. He
pulled himself together with the easy
assurance of an old campaigner and re
turned two good innings after his
plastering.

The Yankee infelds rather awkward
