CONSIDERABLE MONEY IS
INVESTED IN BASEBALL
Development of the National Pastime
as Business During Recent
Years.

Charles A. Comiskey. owner of the
Chicago White Sox. and famous years
ago as the great first baseman. man
ager and captain of Chris Won der
Ahes champion ST Louis Browns,
contributes the following interesting
chapter TO baseball history:
"The development of baseball, as a
business. has beenso complete that II
has attained prominence second to
no other American industry in extern
siveness and importance. The busi-
ness of baseball fourishes wherever
there is stretch OF level ground
and enough lumber to make n bat, and
as more people are Interested In It
than in any other single industry in
the country. surely IL is the most i'm
portant In Chicago. where the live
stock trade has acquired somewhat OF
reputation, 1t is extremely probable
that most of the Inhabitants. If con.
fronted with the alternative of giving
up their meat or their baseball. would
choose to become vogetarians.
THE statistical extent OF baseball
Is difficult to estimate and not likely
10 be overestimated. approximately
300 professional teams are listed
under the national agreement, and to
the players OF these clubs over 81 2.577,-
600 was paid out last year In salaries.
To maintain the grounds OF these
clubs and for incidental salaries there
was an additional expenditure of'2h
million dollars. For railroad fares the
club owners parted with close on to
one million dollars, and for hotel bills
for the travelling clubs the amount
paid out approximated $l50,0OO For
spring training expenses the mag
mates parted with $125,000, part Of
which they made back. of course, in
the ante-season exhibition games, For
all additional expenses rolled mp by
the clubs playing under the national
agreement there was an outlay OF at
least one million dollars
"These figures. IT. must be remem-
bered, are the clubs playing for what
is known as organized baseball. In
every city in he country there are
hundreds of teams playing as ANA
teurs and so.caled semi-professionas
The semi.professiona teams. however,
are just as much professional, from a
strictly business standpoint, as any
league team in the country"
