RED FANS WONDER

hEO FANS WONDEh
Every time they read about Kenneth
Williams spectacular clouting these
days.
For when Ken got chance with
Cincinnati in 1856 his poor hitting
brought about his return TO the min
ors. His first year in Beerville he hit
.242 in 20 games and the next year
collected three hits in q attempts for
a Ill average. Which wasn't quite
up to standard, of course.
The change is all the more remark
able when it is pointed out that he
has hit in the 300 class ever since he
has been with the Browns. And this
is his fifth campaign.
Ken halls from Grants Pass, Ore,
where he was born June %, 1898.
When he broke into the pro game in
1913 with Regina in the Western Can
ada league he was torn between two
ambitions-whether to play the infield
or outeield. He landed in the outfield
and played that position entirely with
Edmonton and Spokane before going
TO the Reds. The season the Reds
shipped him back to Spokane he NOV
ed to Portland in the Pacific Coast
league and it was his hitting and field
ing with that club that caused the
Browns to buy him Sept. l, 1917, for
! $3,500
| The jolly record books give no aver
ages for him in 1918, but in 1919 he
soaked the apple for a 800 average,
in 1920 for a 1907 percentage and last
year for a .347 percentage. Which in
dicates that he is on the rise as far as
hitting goes. Babe Ruth, please note.
