Villa had signed Ron from Moor Green in December 1950 having been a much sought after player as a local amateur Ron joined Villa as a professional and as a well built centre forward with a good shot proved able to use his head in more ways than one.

On This Day
Villa are desperately unlucky at White Hart Lane after going two behind within a minute of the restart they fight back to 2-2 only to have a penalty awarded against them with 10 minutes remaining.
Joe Rutherford however pulls off an excellent save to keep the scores equal however the referee orders a retake, for no obvious infringement, and this time the spot kick is successful and Villa are harshly beaten at the last by the League leaders.
George Martin's Villa lose for the fourth successive game.
Overall Villa make it five wins, ten draws and fourteen defeats in twenty nine division one games so far this season and sit 21st in the table.
Centre forward Ron Jeffries made his Villa debut after moving from Moor Green in August 1950.

On This Day
George Martin's Villa lose for the sixth successive game as Villa's poor form shows no signs of abating.
Villa are unlucky however as the winning goal comes after a Joe Rutherford save who then proceeds to stumble, fall, and allow the ball to cross the line with just 9' left.
Overall Villa make it five wins, ten draws and sixteen defeats in thirty one division one games so far this season.
Centre forward Ron Jeffries plays his second and final game for Villa before moving on to Walsall in November 1953 without making a further appearance.
