Suspended Werle
Seeks Solution
With Bill Meyer
Pittsburgh (U.R) Bill Werle,
Pirate southpaw pitcher under
indefinite suspension for break
ing training, said Tuesday he
thought Manager Bill Meyer was
"right in. cracking down on those
who didn't toe the line" but ex
pressed hope that he could "iron
out" his troubles with the club.
Werle returned to Pittsburgh
from Beaumont, Tex., where he
was banded tne suspension
i Thursday and fined $50Q to pre
pare his "case for Meyer and
general manager Branch Rickey."
"It was my first infraction of
the training rules and I feel that
I'm being made an example for
the youngsters on the team," the
soft spoken Werle said.
Werle was the first player to
fall under the ax in Meyer's
"get tough" policy..

needed for each. The critical Mexican audience was so pleased
they awarded her the ears and tails of the two bolls.
