BOSTON, Oct. 11. The big bat
ter faced the big pitcher at a crucial
moment of the world's series between
the Philadelphia Nationals and the
Boston Americans today and the
pitcher decfined the challenge. It
was in the thrilling last half of the
ninth. The score of the third game
cf the world's series was a tie.
Harry Hooper, tleet of foot, was
. on second base, with only one out
when Tris Speaker, o Hubbard City.
Tex., stepped to the plate and turned
a determined face toward Grover
Cleveland Alexander, the fighting
hope of the Thlllles, who was In the
worst plight of his pitching career,
lie Passes Speaker.
Big- "Alex" looked at Hooper, gave
heed , to the crowd, saw gpea Iter's war
club gleaming In the : late aftern ion
un. His mind was made up. The first
ball went far wide or the plate. like
wise the second - and the third. Tha
maddened throng knew what this meant
and they howled in derisive delight as
on the fourth straight pitch the atar
renterflelder of the Red Sox trotted to
first. , ,
Thla put the issue squarely ' up to
HobliUell, lanky guardian of the Box's
lnnrr corner, and Alexander faced him
with more confidence. The yelling of
the crowd and the. strain of. striving to
stave off defeat - seemed momentarily to
tell on the pitcher, hower, and he had
difficulty in finding the plate.
Duffy" Lewis Vp. 1
It was three and one On "Hoibby,"
when the- first baseman sent a slow
bounder toward second. The , crowd
feared a double play and the lusty howl
ing died away. But Speaker had taken
a flying start with Hooper and the two
Boston runners were. safe on third and
second, as Nlehoff tossed "Hobby" out
at first. "I !
The'chorua oT'2.WO of his home Jolks
was calling upon him 'with a etxroor
that carried far from the wide green
reaches of the. Braves' field to Carve for
himself a niche In'the-feSae ball hall Of
fame.' ,
'Duff bad already made, .two hits In
three times to the plate, two . stinging
blows beyond the Phillies' line of Inner
defense, but this decidedly healthy bat
ting average of '.B67' did not deter him In
the least Alexander, stout of heart, fight
ing as he never fought before, calling
upon all the reserve cunning of his strong
right arm, put Into his first pitch all the
wile ha could command and sent the
sphere speeding on' its way.
- Home Conies Hooper.
Lewis met the ball with a smashing
crack and, It flashed over Becond base, a
gray, fwhite streak that no defensive
Phtlly, could reach, and Hooper raced
across the plate with a historic run. It
gave the game to the Red Pox by two to
ne, and the advantage of the series by
the same margin of games won and lost,
two for the "Red Sox and one or the
Phillies.
With the "big fellow" defeated In this
"breaking" game of the 1915 conflict be
tween the title-bearers of the two major
leagues the Boston players and their sup
porters tonight are willing to wager at
almost any ods that the home team will
win the series.
The Phillies had placed their hope In
Alexander, but put upon him In advance
the burden of winning three of the games
of the series. One failure on his part
meant a serious setback to their chances.
But tonight Manager Pat Moran of the
visitors is far from admetting the failure.
The Phillies are not yet through. They

Stubborn Resistance.

Macedonians Gather in Bands with.
Hope of Repulsing Attack' of

ACTIVITY IN WESTERN ZONE
VIENNA, Oct. 11. (Via London.)
Austro-German troops advancing
from Belgrade, have beaten back the
Serbians, both southeast and south
west of that city. This was an
nounced today by the Austrian war
office.
LONDON, Oct. 11. The Austro
German armlea which crossed the
Danube and Save rivers and occupied
Delgrade are meeting with stubborn
resistance at the Serbian advance de
fenses, but have not yet come In con
tact with the main Serbian forcea.
The Serbians' plan of campaign
depends considerably upon the
amount of assistance they will re
ceive from allied troops, but It Is not
believed that they will attempt, In
any event, to make a decided stand
north of the mountain range near
Kraguyevats, which they already
have proved to be a line offering
superb facilities for defense.
Telegrams from th Balkans, though
not minimising the seriousness of th
Serbian position, reflect a ton of cheer
ful confidence in th ability of th allies
ultimately to check th Austro-German
invasion and successfully meet any fu
ture attack from the aid of Bulgaria.
The national danger, say these tele
grams, has united Serbia as never be
fore, and throughout tha country men
normally unfit for th regular army and
women and old men are arming for the
defense of their country.
The population of Macedonian Serbia
has gathered Into bands with th object
of repulsing a possible Bulgarian attack.
In addition to 330,000 soldiers, 1,000,000 Ser
bians of both sexes and all ages, ar
said to be ready to dispute all attempt
at Auatro-German-Bulgarian conquest.
' Th suspense attending the tnttlntton f
the Bulgarian -cafhpaVgnuaslliig mill- "
tary writers hers, bUt it la considered as
probably due to the fact that th country
still required several weeks to complete
mobilisation when th Russian ultima
tum was sprung upon It.
In th western theater of th war, tha
Garman attack In th vicinity of Loos
appears .to have subsided, having ac
complished nothing except th securing
of a temporary partial footing In sotn
