$45,000 Salary
For Kuenn
By JOHN GRIFFIN
United Press International
Singles hitters can so make
big money, Harvey Kuenn in
sists and the American league
batting champion proved his
point today by agreeing to a
$45,000 salary for 1960 -the
highest Detroit Tiger salary
in nine years.
Kuenn, who led the league
with a .353 batting mark last
year that included only nine
homers, ended his six-day
holdout Sunday when he and
Tiger General Manager Rick
Ferrell came to terms by long
distance telephone.
The pact, said Ferrell, was
a "compromise" between the
$47,500 Kuenn was asking
and the $40,000 the Tigers
were offering. It makes
Kuenn the highest paid Ben
gal since Prince Hal New
houser, who drew down $48,
000 in 1951.
It also keeps tobacco-chew
ing Harvey the top salary
man on the current Detroit
roster, ahead of Al Kaline's
$42,000.

his amateur status.
"I didn't work too hard
against the Red Wings," he
added in the Rangers' steamy
dressing room. "I got wonder
ful protection up front."
