Mail Tribune Shoot
On Saturday, Sunday
Baseball Owner
Profits Small,
Washington (U.R) Organized
baseball told Congress Friday
that the game is a poor business
for the owners but a good one
for the players, whose average
wage Is four times that of work
ers in other Industries.
Paul A. Porter, baseball's spec
ial counsel, claimed in a letter
published by the House Monop
oly subcommittee that tne
sport's profits are "trivial . . .
infinitesimal . . . and virtually
negligible," for the owners.
Porter contrasted salaries and
bonuses paid Investors and ball
players in 1950 to show that
while the Investors' share was
"virtually negligible," the play,
ers had "remarkably remunera
tive occupations" when compar
ed with other industries.
Seven Teams Lose
Porter said seven of the 16 ma
jor league teams operated at a
loss in 1950. With $31,541,000 in
vested in the 16 clubs, he said
Investors received $775,000 In
salaries and bonuses for an "in
finitesimal" 1.5 per cent return.
When minor league clubs are in
cluded, he said the investors' re
turn on baseball's 1950 gross re
ceipts of $55,000,000 was
"pitifully small" 0.4 per cent.
In contrast, Porter said major
league players were paid $5,890,
000 In 1950, while those who
took part in the world series col
lected another $485,000.
He pointed out that the aver
age salary for each major league
player in 1950 was $13,842,
while trie average 10 years ago
was $7,306. The average in all
other industries was $3,024 in
1950 and $1,269 in 1939.

Free Passes
Cursed in 2
PCL Towns
Snn Francisco (U.R) The
base on balls, an innocent, un
spectacular occurrence that gives
a bRtter a free ticket to first was
being cursed steadily in at least
two Pacific Coast league cities
Friday.
A product of errant or unwill
ing pitchers, the walk has been
the scourge of managers since
the Inception of the diamond
sport.
Fines or Farms
Some skippers have slapped
fines on pitchers for issuing
passes to batters. Others have
shunted the guilty to far off
farm clubs, or worse, to the
Ignominy of the practice cage.
Trying to be too cute, some
pitchers issua Annie Oakleys by
missing the corners. That hap
pened, disastrously, In the PCL
Thursday night. Others, their
control in the locker room, Just
can't find the fnt part of the
dish.
The cute pitcher was Seattle's
Earl Johnson, who had set Snn
Francisco down one-two-three in
three frames of relief work and
nursed a one-run lead in the
ninth.
Two Score
Ray Hamrick legged out a
cheap Infield hit, and, with two
out, Johnson tried to be coy
with Len Ratio, a 232 stroker.
Ratto, the potential winning run,
was walked. Both he and Ham
rick scored on Jim Moran's bun
bounce double and the Seals beat
Seattle, 5-4.
Oakland pitcher Bill Ayers
walked two men to force in the
tying run and his relief, MUo
Candlni, passed Al White on
four pitches to push home the
winning one as Sacramento nip
ped the Oaks, 3-2.
In other games, homers by
Ron Northey and Max West enr

Preakness
Set Saturday
Baltimore, Md. (U.R)
Headed by the favored Sub
Fleet, a late-running colt who
ran out of ground in the Ken
tucky Derby, four more entries
were expected Friday to com
plete a field of 10 for the 76th
running of the Preakness stakes
at Pimlico race track.
With Calumet Farm's Ken
tucky Derby champion, Hill
Gail, on the sidelines because of
a leg Injury, the race was re
garded as a wide open affair
from which none of the antici
pated starters was expected to
withdraw before they are sum
moned to the post for the mile
and three-sixteenth classis a t
5:17 p. m. Saturday.
Sub Fleet Favored
Scheduled to be entered Fri
day along with Sub Fleet were
two other derby disappointments
Blue Man and Arroz and
Jampol, only gelding in the
field.
Sub Fleet, because of that pul
sating late charge which fell
just short of Hill Gail in the
Derby, was the 3 to 1 choice to
roar right back for Preakness
gold and glory. Blue Man was
the second choice at 4 to 1, with
Jampol 10 to 1 and Arroz 20 to
1.
