It's Williams timely hitting that
has kept the Phillies from dropping
completely out Of the bottom.
He is always there; always de-
pendable - that consistency that
counts for any club.
Errors he makes, surely, but they
are errors OF effort and over-eager-

The Phillies acquired him in a
trade with the Chicago Cubs, for
Paskert, in 1912. He showed his
worth by being right up among the
boys with 164 hits for an average OF
1928.
Last year he hit 1sz times for &
