The silver-haired boss of the Sen- ators has long ‘held a warm spot in | his heart for Myer but there was |a time back in 1927 when he had an idea that the little infielder did not have the makings of a big league star. It was then that he traded Myer to the Boston Red Sox for Topper Rigney. Buddy played only fair ball in the half of the 1927 season he wore the Red Sox uniform, but the following year he blossomed out into a real star| at third base.

So on De- | | cember 15, 1928, Griffith completed | 1the deal that brought Myer back to the Senators where he really | belonged. Just how badly Griffith | wanted Buddy back can be judged from the fact that he gave up Gas- | ton, Lisenbee, Reeves, Gillls and Bigelow to make the trade. | But the Silver Fox has the satis- | faction of knowing that while Myer | is just arriving at his baseball peak, | | the men he sent to Boston in the trade have passed out of the big | league picture. | | Buddy has always been a fair | batter, but this season he blossomed | |out as a contender for the batting| |laurels of his league.
