Don- Osborn, general manager of the Class A- Spokane Indians, said it's a serious situation cost ing WIL owners thousands of dol lars and be urged an emergency league meeting to deal with it. 'Nonsense." retorted Bill Bur gher, manager of the Bandon team in the semi-pro Southwestern Ore gon - League which Is sponsored by lumber companies." , Cal Mclrvin, leading pitcher In the WIL last year with a 13-4 rec ord and a 2.28 earned run av erage, has declined to report to Spokane this year and will play for Bandon instead, i, ' Mclrvin, acquired from Victoria and expected to play a key role in Spokane's 1953 plans, "told me he could make almost 11,000 a month with the semi-pros and we can't match that," Osborn said. Burger said Mclrvin win. work for the Moore Lumber Co., spon sor of the Bandon team, at the regular pay scale in the mill. The average, lumber wage is about 2 an hour for. a 40-hour week.

He said players in organized ball who stand little chance to get to the high minors or the major league hardly get enough money to live on. The Western International has a salary limit of so.vuo a month for 18 players, an average of $317. Osborn said the "raiding" is as serious ' to the Western Interna tional as was the post-war "Jump ing" of American players to the high paying Mexican League.
