The club doctor is always called in anything that looks at all serious. College trainers keep their eye on the weight of the athletes, pay at: tention to their food and look after their condition in general. The question as to whether a real col: lege trainer would help a major league club has been raised by the showing of three players this year, Babo Ruth of New York, Harry Hellmann of Detroit and Eddie Col- lins of Chicago. Ruth took off 80 pounds from last year, his playing weight drop- ping from 235 to 205, Harry Hell mann, who has wolghed as much as 225, but*who played at about 210 last year, tips the beam at 180 this 'year. Hddle Collins, while no light er, is in great shape, WOULD’ COLLEGE TRAINERS HELP BIG LEAGUE TEAMS? Ruth and Hellmann realizing that weight was slowing them up, went on a diet, did much exercising and are playing the best game of their career, Collins, believing he was to go to New York in a trade, caro. fully prepped himself for the 1923 campaign. He is better than ever, altho in his 16th year in the big show. Condition has made over these three players, All of which merely strengthens the belief that a college trainer would help a major league club by watching closely the condi- Hon of his charges.
