TIP
WARNED MORAN
TO HOLD RING
PITTSBURGH LEADER WANTED
REUTER- AND RING so MORAN
DECIDED TO KEEP THEM.

Ring and Reuther have proven them
selves pretty valuable to the Cincin-
natl Reds in their drive toward the
pennant. but perhaps it might be in
order for Pat Moran to thank Barney
Dreyfuss for tipping him to the value
of these hurlers.
Soon after Moran took hold of the
Cincinnati club he decided to attach
the hardware to Ring and Reuther. He
asked for waivers on the hurlers and
every club waived in Jig time but Bar
ney Dreyfuss. When Moran learned
that Barney was willing to annex the
tow stars, he began to thing. He had a
conference with Garry Hartmann and
the latter advised Moran to hold on to
the hurlers and to give them a
thorough trial. Garry did not force
his views on Moran. but told him to
use his own best judgment.
Moran thought the matter over. He
called Ring and Reuther in for a
heart to heart confab, and the result
is now known to all fans of the coun-
try. 1t is limited by reliable parties
that Moran gave Ring and Reuther
substantial boost in salary with a

selves out of a job unless they deliv-
cred the merchandise.
Moran admits Dreyfuss made him
think. II figured that if Barney could
use this pair they must have some
value" he said. Pat recently declared
he was never in doubt as to the abil-
ity of Ring and Reuther, but he did
figure they were not overburdened
with ambition and therefore would be
the same as a mill stone about his
neck.
Like several more managers in the
National League, Moran has a great
deal of respect for the ability of Drey
fuss to pick ball players. especially the
young ones who have flivved after a
short trial. Ring has been a star for
the Reds this season. He has worked
hard in every game in which he has
hurled, and at all times he displayed
much more interest than last season.
Reuther too has delivered the goods.
1t was a close call for Moran and one
he will not forget in hurry, according
to his own statement.

CLAUDE WILLIAMS.

Claude Williams is one OF the best
if not the best left handed pitcher
in the American league. He is another
of Gleason's aces. He was born March
1888 at Aurora, Mo-, and broke into
baseball at Nashville. Tenn. in 1912.
This is Williams fourth year in major
league baseball, always as a member
OF the White Sox. His effectiveness
this season has been another strong
point in favor of the White Sox- He
and Cicotte have been called upon to
do the burden of the pitching for the
club and they always have been will
ing workers. Rarely does Williams
lose a game where his teammates go
out and get a run or two for him.
He bats right handed. He is mar
ried and resides in Springfield, Mo.
He is feet, 81 inches tall and weighs
$50 pounds. Lefty" worked in the
shipyards last winter and was one of
the players whom Manager Gleaosn
brought back to the club. He Joined
the White Sox from the Salt Lake
club of the Pacific coast league.
