Williams SLUMP
IN HITTING RAISES
HOME RUN QUESTION
tBy Associated Press)

ST. LOUIS, June 9.-Since Kenneth
Williams of the st. Louis Browns
jumped to the front as potential
king of home run hitters, his batting
average has dropped 166 points, he has
fallen from first to 10th place among
the hitters of the American League
regulars and his present mark Of .2S3
is 81 points below his percentage Of
last season, when he crashed out suf-
ficient hits to give him a season rec
ord of 347
AS a result of this slump, possibly
the greatest ever experienced by
major Lacquer, this question now is
asked around the American league
circuit: rs trying to hit home runs
luining Williams as batter?"
Something is wrong-that is certain
but whether it's trying to hit home
runs or whether it is Just one of those
unexplained slumps which some times
hit the best of sluggers is not known.
Against the home run theory is the
fact that virtually every heavy hitter
in the American league has lost many
points in his batting average during
the past few weeks, although none
has approached Williams tremendous
drop. Improved pitchers, brought on
by the warmer weather is said to have
caused shrinkage in batting marks.
The statistics on Williams present
some interesting facts which, how
ever, are taken by some to indicate
that it's the continual effort to send
the ball out of the park that has
brought the st. Louis slugger from
the top of the list to a place among
mediocre hitters.
Slumped In May
It was along in May that Bing Mil
Her, of Philadelphia, began to press
Williams for home run honors and il
was at that period that Williams be
gan to slump the most. Whether
worry over the possibility of losing
his place as leader In knocking home
runs helped in the slump cannot be
said, of course. but when Roger Horns
by in the National league equalleC
Williams mark, the latter slumpeC
even more.
During the period given above viii
liams has averaged only hits week
while in one week he drove safely only
two
When Williams first upset the
league with his home runs. Babe Ruth
tho king of all sluggers and then undel
suspension. warned the st. Louis out
fielder to be careful not to try too
hard for long drives.
IF Williams does not try too hare
for homers, but just takes a goot
swing at the ball, he will send a 10
of balls over the fence this season,
said Ruth, but if he concentrates OF
home runs he will spoil his swing
just as a golfer spoils his follow
through by trying to murder the ball
That not only will mean fewer homeri
but it will mean a big drop in his bat
ting average and much of his value t
his team will be lost"
