One of the best brother acts
In baseball, Ace Pitcher Morton
Cooper and his slugging battery
mate, Walker, today staged a
walkout on the World Champion
Cardinals after a front office
salary squabble,
Should the Coopers stick to
their decisions to quit the game
for good, they might write finis
to the Card's hope for a fourth
consecutive pennant and second
straight world title.
Speaking for both, Mort said
they had quit the Cardinals
"never to return" and will find
Jobs out of the game.
The salary quarrel was
touched off a few days ago when
the brothers learned that Short
stop Marty Marion had signed
his 1045 contract at salary re
portedly higher than they were
to receive for this season.
Owner Sam Breadon refused
to comment on the Coopers' ac
tion.
He did say, however, that he
would not become alarmed over
the walkout until they failed to
show up In Chicago for next
Tuesday's opener.
Mort said Breadon denied him
a raise this year citing a govern
ment ruling which would pro
hibit paying him more than the
highest salary on the club in
1943 which was $12,000. That
Incidentally, was Mort's own
paycheck for '43.
"Now I hear he made quick
arrangement with Marion that
boosted Marty's figure over my
supposedly top salary," the big
hurler said.
"We staged our walkout on
Mr. Breadon after a conference
yesterday. He offered to increase
our salaries $300 apiece, but
that's not enough."
Walker, like Mort, signed for
$12,000 and both are understood
to be holding out for an addl
tlonal $1,800.
BAY CITY FACE

San Francisco, April 14 (U.PJ
The so-called "fixed fight" busi
ness in the San Francisco Buy
region Is due for another shuffl
ing on Tuesday night when the
rand jury continues its probe
of questionable results in con
nection with the squared circle.
While the fans for the last
three months have been grumbl
ing about the surprise endings to
many bouts, and the promoters
and boxers were terming it
"just one of those things," It
now appears that the men who
lay the dough on the line at the
box office had something about
which to growl.
The best proof came from one
of the boxing clan when Aaron
(Little Tiger) Wade, a well
known local sepia fighter, offer
ed to "guarantee' there would be
no more fixed fights in San
Francisco if the district attor
ney's office would drop the
probe.
The offer was made to the
surprised district attorney, Ed
mund (Pat) Brown and Brown
thought so much of it that he
will call Wade to appear before
the grand jury on Tuesday to
repeat his offer.
