THE EVE!"NG HERALD, KLAMATH PALLS, OREGON February 18 1931 PAGfc TWO Braucher's Sport Gossip By Bill Brauchor Clark Griffith, who glvee each of Mi noble diamond ath lotes a herring upon the per formance of. aoma outstanding teat, hain't a earner on all the financial toxlness In the big leaguei, after all. Connie Mack, the "lean and kindly , leadar of the A's," Isn't 10 dumb about money matters, . either. When the lean and kindly leader sent Jimmy Foxx a con tract offering him a handsome 25 per cent cut from his 816. 000 salary as a reward for Jimmy's brilliant baseball of the last few years, he came pretty . close -to Orlff's all-time record for nickel-nursing. Foxx, prompted by persistent ' gentlemen of tho press, had been almost ready to publicise himself as a $50,000 ball play er which he certainly Is If the 1934 edition of Babe Ruth la worth (35,000 when along came the mail man bearing the bad news. ( Just $38,000 less than he expected, and a 69 eont dollar at that! Here Is a Dall player who would bring. 5250,008 on the trading block, being offered 5 per cent of his value to toll for one year. At that rate. Lefty Grove would be worth Just 6250 annual recompense from the Red Sox. There Is a chance, though, that Mack really didn't mean that opening offer to his great lugger. Major league club owners, most of them, anyway, are experts In the dealing out of object lessons. Mack Is faced by the necessity of cut ting his payroll mightily this year. Philadelphia fans, not over enthusiastic even in years when a championship team played In Shibe park, can be expected to stay away from the place in large numbers during the coming season. Mr. Mack, looking over his roster, picks out his best ball player, and Instead of giving him a raise tor consistently meritorious performance, ot . fen him a whale of a slash. The othor employes of the Ath letic orchard, reading the sad tidtngi in the newspapers, think themselves very fortun ate to receive only a 50 per cent slice. At least that is the theory. The owner, in that way, can get his ball club signed up quickly at bargain prices. The star holds tor more, and prob ably finally gets it Foxx is sillier than most of the base ball geese if he signs for less than $35,000 this year. . Three years ago Al Simmons, then nnder the lean and kindly ..direction ot Mr. Mack, waa a haggling hold out. Mack rais ed the ante gradually as open ing day drew nearer. Simmons waited.' On the day the season opened, Simmons finally signed a three-year contract calling tor 1100,000. Federal Court Upholds State's Rights on Oil SHERMAN, Texas, Feb. 13.
