I" Ai. S: r: t; i id KL' }•*. Versatility is the outstanding characteristic of William Hartman Woodin, New York industrialist, who was recently appointed as Secretary of the Treasury by President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt in the cabinet that will come into being after the inauguration on March 4 Not only has Woodin climbed to the peak in business, but he is world-famous as an authority on old coins, of which he has one of the largest private collections extant. He is also a collector of rare books, an enthusiastic angler and a musical composer. Among his musical compositions are five symphonies, a children's book of songs and a score of popular pieces. Critics have lauded Woodin'* musical creations, and there is no doubt that he could start life all over again from scratch nnd win fame in tha field where Mozart, Beethoven and other masters won it before him. Despite his hobbies, Woodin has proved all through his career that he possesses the faculty of untangling knotty financial problems, so he is weU equipped for the difficult task facing him. The man destined to be custodian of Uncle Sam's pocketbook was born at Berwick, Pa., in 1868. He was graduated from Columbia University in 1890 and began work in bis father’s foundry as a cleaner of castings at 90 cents a day. Devotion to his job resulted in rapid promotion up the ladder, step by step, until he Vvcame foundry superintendent. He decided to travel when he got that far, so he resigned and toured Europe and the Near East, studying music in the European capitals. A life-long Republican, he created a sanction by coming out flat for Alfred E. Smith in 1928. During the recent campaign he acted as economic adviser to Mr Roosevelt. Mr. Woodin is married and has four children, William, an electrical engineer; Mary. Anne and Elisabeth. Incidentally, one of Woodin’s musical compositions, the “Franklin Delano Roosevelt March," will be played when his close friend is inaugurated President of the United States on March 4. J

Hi roe Tigers — By BURNLEY 1 I l —, 1 - — ' | I Bucky HARRIS CAPABLE LEADER OF the DETROIT team /«j© I9i>. King Feiruro Syndicate. Inc. Great Britain rights reserved

BUCKY HARRIS has his hands full right now distributing a bunch of recruits nere and there —where they will do the most good and learn to do the least harm—and whipping into -hape a Detroit team that is expected to do “much better’’ in 1933. A more able man for the job woukl be hard to find. Capability is the Rucky’s middle name, and with the Tigers reporting for training right now, the work is under way and they’re ratin’ to go. Harris will play Harry Davis at first base, and this promising young man should more than fulfill the expectations of his manager. Davis proved himself a good player in his first regular position last season. although his batting was nothing to rave about. If he keeps up his brand of play at the initial sack and lifts his batting average, he will ring the hell.

> Bucky thought so much of young Davis that he traded Dale Alexani der, who previously held down first i base, to the Boston Red Sox. Alexander apparently liked the New 1 England atmosphere, because he promptly uncorked a brand of batting that found him leading the American League hitters at the close of the season. It’s hard to figure out what Harris thought about that, but it had nothing to do with his opinion of Davis; and as a matter of fact, when the records are scrutinized more closely, it will be found that Davis actually drove in more runs than did Alexander, with all the latter’s high average. At second base the Tigers will have one of the great players of the American League—Charlie Gehringer. the born ballplayer -who is well-liked by fans and players and ’can always lie counted on to play ford City Airdales finished in a tie for first place in the Northeastern Indiana conference race.

hard and fast. In 1931 Gehringer had played in more than 600 consecutive games, and then came an arm injury that benched him for a good while. The arm gave him a lot of trouble, and he still felt the effects of the injury in the first few weeks of the 1932 season; but as the stiffness wore off. Gehringer hit his old stride again and finished the season in first rate style. The good Gehringer will be back there this season with all that it takes, and the Tigers can count on him for plenty—fielding and batting. Fans are enthusiastic over a renewal of the old feud between the Tigers and the Giants in exhibition games. This feud ended abruptly a few years ago. but it is to be re•mnied in a series of pre-season games this year. Uowriglit. 1*33, King Futures Syndicate.
