The Cardinals decided the young-j| ster needed additional seasoning, so they sent him on to Columbus. When the Detroit Tigers decid- ed they needed an experienced catcher to help out during the ab- | sence of Mickey Cochrane they dug up old Glenn Myatt. Myatt cer- tainly has plenty of experience to recommend him. Glenn must be nearly 40. He has been around a long, long time and | should know all the answers.

Reiber Returns to Minors | Myatt caught on with the New | York Giants for a spell. Then he| moved on to Montreal where he was playing when the Tigers pick-| ed him up. When Myatt came along Frank! Reiber was sent back to the min- ors. The move would seem to indi-| cate that the Tigers have - finally | lost faith in Reiber. There was a| time when Reiber was looked upon as a; likely successor to Mickey‘ Cochrane and was being schooled to take over the catching job. ! Only rarely did Frank flash any | signs ‘of latent greatness. His main | trouble was his inability to throw to bases. Not that Reiber lacked a strong arm — his throws lacked accuracy and at times he seemed puzzled as to just where to throw. This failing caused him no end of worry and resulted in loss of ef- fectiveness at the plate as well as behind it. The lad is still a youngster and, may yet come around, but the ‘Tigers are in no position to gamble cn him further. 5 estt- ELECTRIC JUNEAU 6 - >~ Lode and placer location netic for sale at The Empire office.
