We have learned that Asbury Park has a contract with Wood-bridge to play that squad on Turkey Day for the next, two years. This season, Asbury Park played Woodbridge on Oct. 18, and we're told that next year the Bishops will trade dates with Woodbridge and Snyder, playing the Jersey City school in mid-season and the Middlesex County school on Thanksgiving.

Sauer won his circuit's highest honor by a narrow margin over Robin Roberts, the graceful righthander of the Philadelphia Phillies, and Joe Black, the rookie relief expert of the pennant winning Brooklyn Dodgers. The Chicago star, whose climb to major league stardom was a tortuous path, collected 226 points out of a possible 336.

Roberts, who won more games than any other pitcher, 28, finished second with 211 points. Black, who made Brooklyn's entry into the World Series possible, was third with 208. Sauer, a six-foot, four-inch 200-pound bruiser, ran into a terrible slump In September. He hit only three homers, drove in seven runs and collected 16 hits in 75 times at bat.
