Jacob Ruppert may have to don false whiskers and a red auit and play Santa Claus to the other American league club owners before he get any ball players to plug the weak spots In the New York Yankees. The rising strength of the Detroit Tigers and Boston Red Sox make It imperative that the Yankees land some star players If they are to be contenders in the 1936 pennant race. With one of the btegeat fortunes In baseball at his command. Col. Rxip- pert Is finding It Increasingly dif ficult to do any business with other clubs: the Yanks are practically boycotted. This unlaue situation goes back to the daya when the Yankees were rid ing high, wide and handsome and had a aurplus of talent but refused to let any of their star players go to weaker clubs to help balance tne American league strength. Dd Barrow, Yankees' buslnefia manager. Incurred the wrath of other magnates and managers by his refusal to consider anything like an even deal for any of the Yankees' overflow. Now Col. Ruppert finds that Bar row's policy t being thrown back In hla teeth every time he attempts to make a deal. He asked Clark Orlfflth a Quotation on Buddy Mycr, Amer ican league batting champion, and re ceived the cold-blooded reply inai me price was ,500.000. Griffith's price wa about five or six times too high for a 32-year-old player who never hnt.tri more than .313 before last season. Griffith's proposition was no more fantastic than some of the deals Bar row tried to put over when the Yanks ruled the baseball world.
