The following year saw him at Toledo and Newark, where his hitting was only fair. In 1932 he was sent to Buffalo, where he hit .289. Meanwhile the Yankees were sold on Frank Croâ€" setti, using the young Pacific Coast leaguer at short and third. There seemed no spot for Werber in the Yanâ€" After his graduation, in 1930, the Yankees sent him to Albany,, where he hit .339, was named most valuable player on the Albany team and receivâ€" ed a gift of $500 worth of furniture. It may be just the Yankses‘ tough luck that in 1935 Bill Werber proves to be the key man in the Boston.ensemble, the spark to lead the Red Sox past the Yanks to a peonnant. pBlar in Football, Too Bill is one of the few ball players in the majors with an A.B. degres. He was born in Berwyn, Md., June 20, 1908, and grew up in Langdon, District of Columbia. At Duke university he disâ€" tinguished himself in athletiecs, espeâ€" clally baseball, under the tutelage of Jack= Coombs and George Witted, and was a fine student as well. He was Allâ€"Southern football guard in 1929 and 1930, though only five fest eleven in height, weighing 165. The Yankees, bringing him up in 1930, tried him at Albany, Toledo, Newâ€" ark, Buffalo and the Yankee bench. Though a fast man, he was solemnly adjudged a flop at short, ‘"not quite good enough." At Boston Bucky Hatlr‘s put Bill on third and he became a .321 hitter last year, led his league in base running with 40 stolen bases, and acâ€" cepted more chanses at third and had more assists than any otherâ€"third bassâ€" man in the league. Bill undid the wisdom of that deâ€" cicion by becoming one of the most dangerous hitters in the American league and a third baseman second to none in the business. This year he is counted on, with Joe Cronin, to form the strongest combination in the game working on the left side of the infield. After giving him a trial here and there, the Yankees daecided William M. Werber could nst hit. So in 1933 they sent Bill to the Boston Red Sox in a deal.

Compensaticn for Ruth Peorhaps that‘s the way the baseball fates have of evening things, for with the league‘s greatest drawing card for the past fiftesn years, Babe Ruth ready to lure hordes of people with him over to the National League, something had to happen to keep the turnstiles from rusting away.

The only way I can account for this is that it fits in with his hope that some day he‘ll run across the secret Oof the game, a short cut to success. This is just human nature asserting itself in another field, another example of the tendency to follow the line of least resistance. Lasting success in anything is to be had only through application and a certain amount of hard work. In other words, it‘s all right to read about the game, but it‘s better to do a little work in the form of exercise which will improve your swing.

It seems likely now that the CA M A. anntual meeting at Halifax 3 mâ€"nth will be presented with a motion allowâ€" ing the NOH.A. a charter to control amateur hockey in the North. Support of this proposal has already been ofâ€" fered from the West and although opâ€" position may come from the O.H.A. representatives, there is no doubt that other branches of the CAH.A. will support the North in its request for autonoimy in the matter of hockey.

Albert Hughes once played with the Americans, under the management of Eddie Gerard. Other Collingwood boys who were not just good enough for the majors but starred in the International, Canadianâ€" American and American Leagues are Mike Brophy of Cleveland Indians, Art Clark of Oklahoma City, "Tony‘ Mcâ€" Leod of Kansas City, Norman Burmisâ€" er, formerly of New Haven Eagles, and Bill Joyce, who once played with Gailt in the Ontario Pro League, but has since been reâ€"instated as an amateur. Roy Burmister has just returned from Philadelphia Arrows. He first broke into the NHL. in 1929 with the New York Americans. Collingwood‘s latest addition to the honour roll is the famous Canadian allâ€" round athlete, Jack Portland, who last year broke in with Canadiens and is now with the battling Boston Bruins. Ber‘n Brophy starred this year with the London Techs, last year‘s Interâ€" national League champions and this year‘s finalists. Bern has seen service with the Montreal Maroons and Deâ€" troit. "‘Sailor‘"‘ Jim Herberts, another proâ€" duct of the Collingwood mill ponds, is on his way home from the Maritimes, where he was a referee this season. He has played with Boston, Toronto and Detroit. Probably the "daddy of them all" and the first Collingwood man to reach the heights, is Reg Noble. Noble, in his day, was considered one of the best forwards in the NH.L. and up until two years ago his play on the defence was on a par with the best in the game. Reg. refereed a few amateur games this year but his hockey days are over. It is surprising to find that this little town on the Georgian Bay, during the past 15 years, has turned out 12 players who were good enough to make the ranks of the professionals. Six of these have made the National League. With the closing the 1935 hockey seaâ€" son, Collingwood boys who have made good in professional ranks are flocking back to their homes in the Shipbuildâ€" ing Town. Pro. Hockeyists Return to Collingwood Homes The N.O.H.A. got off to a great start in 1919. All over the North, great crowds turned out to see their home town teams playing. Iroquois Falls had no covered rink at the time, but they played all their games in Timmins and brought a specal train every time. It was an exciting series for the norâ€" thern group that Timmins won. When the local team went to New»Liskeard to play in the semiâ€"finals, their train was late and the game did not get unuâ€" der way until after 10.30. They were beaten, and failed to tie the round when New Liskeard came here. Sudâ€" bury won both games of the finals: In the Allan Cup playdowns Sudbury won easily from Collingwood and then from the famous Granites. The Wolves were only stopped by Toronto Univerâ€" gity in the Allan Cup quest. N# A L4 CA CE _ _In an official pubiication of the N.O.
