Pirates Pay
$100,000 to
Ballplayer
Los Angeles. Jan. 31 (U.R)
The most unusual deal in base
ball history brought Paul Pettit,
an untested roukic left-hander
who pitched six no-hit games for
his high school team, into the
Pittsburgh Pirates farm system
today for a record bonus of
around $100,000.
"Our scouts think he will be
an outstanding major league
pitcher," said Roy Harney, the
Pirates' general manager.
"He certainly should be. for
that kind of money."
Pettit, a 6-foot 2-Inch young
ster of 18 who graduated from
Narbonnc high school at Lomita,
Cal., last week, will report to
New Orleans March 1 for a
year's seasoning' with tho Pirates'
Southern association farm team.
The contract that makes him
organized baseball's highest-priced
rookie was signed late yester
day in the office of Al Blum,
business manager for Frederick
Stcphanl, motion picture writer
and producer who set up the
transaction when ho signed
Pettit to an exclusive contract
while the boy was still in high
school.
The rules of organized base
ball forbid any club to approach
a prospective player until 24
hours niter he graduates from
high school. But Stephani was
not bound by such rules.
Tomjack Basket
Gives Crusaders
47 to 45 Victory
Beni Tomjack's lay-in shot in
a sudden death overtime period
last night gave St. Mary's high
school its first county B confer
ence basketball victory of the
season, a 47 to 45 win over Pros
pect high oh the local parochial
floor.
The score of tho regular game
was tied at 41 to 41 when the
final gun sounded and the two
quintets already had played one
overtime when Tomjack drib
bled in fur his shot. He fouled
on the play but a Prospect free
throw failed.
Crusaders In Lead
St. Mary's led most of the
way, including 14 to 12 at the
first quarter, 22 to 17 at the half
and 31 to 28 at the third quarter
whistle pause.

points and Long who dumped in
