JANUARY 28, 1981 Musial, Spahn Sign for 1961 Unlttd Prtu International Stan Musial and Warren Spahn are signed, satisfied and set today (or a 1861 base ball season in which both may reach career-capping m 1 1 e stones. Musial signed for an esti mated $75,000 with the St. Louis Cardinals Wednesday while Spahn agreed to an esti- ' mated contract of between $72,000 and $75,000 with the ; Milwaukee Braves. Musial already has passed the 40. year mark and Spahn will be come 40 on April 23. Musial needs 137 hits this year to set a National league record of 3,431 hits for a life time. He should be very close to that figure by the end of ' the season if he can approxi mate his 1960 pace when he hit .275 in 116 games. Spahn, with 288 victories, needs only 12 more to become the seventh 300-game winner and the first National League left-hander to reach that goal in history. He turned in a rec ord 11th 20-win season when he had a 21-10 record in 1960 . and he also pitched the first no-hitter of his career.

Moore-Rinaldi Mix Considered Miami Bcach-flJPIJ-Promoter Jack Fugazy of Feature Sports leaned today toward an Archie Moore -Giullo Rinaldi light heavyweight title fight because of Erich Schoppner's sarcastic refusal of terms as challenger. Fugazy said he believed a defense by champion Moore against Rinaldi of Italy would draw more money than a de fense against Schoeppner of Germany because Rinaldi al ready had beaten Moore in a non-title bout at Rome last Oct. 29.

"Unless the commercial de velopment takes full advan take of the advance technol ogy of the B70, it cannot, in my opinion, remain commer cially competitive very long," he said.
