Liberties of the Mexican people.
And Gompers rose TO the moment in

He poured op. his heart and soul,

was the apostle, the brother. the

was talking TO the multitude that he
loved, talking from a great heart and

words, as they came in the English
tongue, rose and fell in a cadence
that stirred and reused the soul.
Translated into the Spanish Of his

HOPPE SHOWS OLD
WIZARD WITH CUE

NEW YORK November 13.-Willie
Hoppe. worlds 1922 balkline billiard
champion, gave one of the most con-
vincing bits of evidence of his wiz
ardry at the game yesterday when he
ran 600 points in five innings and de-
feated Albert Cutler, Junior cham
pion. in the first two blocks of their
special 1,200-point match at the Hoppe
Academy.
In the afternoon he ran 800 points
to Cutters Is in three innings, getting
his total in % minutes and making
a high run of 191. In the evening he
did even better, getting his 800 points
in two innings while Cutler was
scoring caroms. He made 96 in the
first inning and an unfinished run or
205 in the second.
The circumstances attendant upon
the play make Hopes performances
all the more remarkable. Since last
May, when he met Young JAKE
Schaefer on the Pacific Coast. Hoppe
has not played in an 1872 match. de-
voting his time since then to three
cushions. at which he has been re-
markably successful against some OF
the leading players in the three -cush-
ion ranks. The balkline champion
returned to this city yesterday after
a 1,20O-mile ride from Minneapolis,
where he had been playing three
cushions. His train was late In ar
irving and he had no opportunity to
rest or practice before he went to
the academy to meet Cutler.
When he arrived at the academy.
Hoppe found that his favorite cue had
been mislaid and was compelled to
use another. Here was a chain OF cir
cumstances that might have caused
another player to crack.
Hopes touch was never more deli
cate his cuing never more fluent and
so accurate was his position play that
it was only at rare intervals that he
was compelled to drive for positions

After trudging all the way up the
hill and examining the layout, Jerry

ball stopped 10 feet short and he got
down in 4, seemingly sure of the
hole.
But mark the irony of events Mar

inadequate second shot. leaving him
short of the green and still to the
left. Nevertheless, he pitched his
third eight feet from the cup and
sank his putt, halving the hole and
winning the match.

though, than that one of Jerry's.

Hughie Jennings Tact
Cobb's Turning Point.
Enuy and Jealousy.

He knew that Cobb, being what he
was, could not work with other men.
Cobb, as he was, could not shape his
play to conform with that of others,
for there was no one else near his
style. nor was there any other man
that could fit into the system that
Cobb used. He was adapted to his
own system; other men We're not,
either mechanically or mentally.
| The perfect freedom that Jennings
gave Cobb enabled him to cut loose.
Having only himself to consider,
Cobb was in no way hampered by
signals and team playa He did en-
gage in a certain amount of team
play, but never when it interfered
with his individual game. He was
never subjected to any of the rules
that applied to ther men. He rare
ly ever showed up for morning prac-
tice and rarely ever did he report be-
fore the opening of the season. Cobb
never went to bat with instructions.
He could bunt or hit. as he saw fit.
He was not subject to the signal of
the men coaching at first or third.
He ran as he pleased
While. this method enabled Cobb
to develop to the fullest possible eX-
tent, it made Jennings position ex-
tremely delicate. Other players could
not see why they had to report for Spring
training when Cobb did not. Other play
ers could never see why they had to get
up in the morning and go to the bail
park and practice when Cobb did
not. Other players could not under
stand why they had to be back in
uniform at 1850 o'clock when Cobb
rarely got to the park until an hour
later and sometimes was not on the
field when play started, substitute
going to his position. These protests
often reached Jennings ears, and he
had but one reply:
Whats YOUR batting average?

1t generally has been believed that
there was ring within a ring on
the st. Louis team. Not all of the
players have been convinced that
Sisler was as good p manager as he is
a first baSeman. This probably lies
at the bottom of the plans for reor-
ganiZation.
Stories of dissatisfaction began
cropping up in the 1924 Spring train
ing season. The players, however,
hid any such feeling from outsiders,
if they had it, and talked more than
anything else about their hope that

Mackenzie started with pair of

2 on the second hole. His tee shot

hardly be good enough to hold Sara
zen and Farrell, but they doubtless
will do better next Sunday.
Aside from the interest in the
match with two local players paired
against a duo Of recognized profess
sional stars, members of Washing
ton Golf and Country Club are in
terested in whether any member of
the four-b ball match breaks the par
of 20 in the two rounds to be played
on Sunday.
Par has been equaled only once
and never broken at Washington. The
holes are not only long. but the pen
atty on many of the holes for a mis-
placed tee shot or badly hit second
shot Is severe. All this initiates
against low scoring, and any man
who breaks 20 over Washington Golf
and Country Clubs course will have
to be straight and far.
