"I think the fine is too high, and
it is not to my Itkmg to play for u
salary of $4500, but I love bnscbull
and I am willing to meet tho condi
tions imposed against me in order .o
get back into the game.
"I would rathor play in Chicago

"I will remain hero just long
enough to straighten out my business
affairs. It was iniossiblo for ne
to piny baseball last year because
my business hero was in its infanev
