Don't believe for a second that all had nothing but big days. They have all known dark days on one or more occasions. Grange Stopped I still recall the day when I traveled with "Our Town" Frank Craven, the football loving actor, to to see Red Grange run against Nebraska which had a tackle by the name of Weir a hurdler. That day we failed to see the famous Redhead cross the scrimmage Ur-ba- d line. Frank Reagaa made ever JO yards against Princeton but only six yards at ball carrying against things trade him or play him at first. The decision was up to Greenberg and it wasn't a particularly tough one to make. In the first place, no man relishes a salary slash. Then, too, Greenberg knew that York's bat would give Detroit needed power and that to trade him would be unthinkable. Hank went to the outfield. Even though operating in strange territory and in the face of predictions that be would prove a flop. Hank not only kept up his share of the defense, but assisted materially In the Tigers' pennant success with a large variety of plain and fancy hitting. As soon as the switch was made Hank put everything be bad In learning how to play his new position. No man in the Florida training camps worked harder than Greenberg.

Things were far from bright for the tall, lanky Bronx boy when the Tigers' front office called him to Detroit for a chat. It was then that the Detroit officials offered Greenberg his choice of taking a sizable salary slash or shifting from first base to the outfield in order to make a place for York, the misfit.
