Five years more and the profes.
sional ball player will command a
price undreamed OF even today II the
present rate Of increase is maintained.
The saying Worth his weight in gold
stands TO be realized In recruiting men
to take the places OF the veterans
now in the major league ranks.
It is a dub who will not bring at
least $4,000 from a Class c league
when the major scout comes around
and a fairly good man with prospects
is rated at from anything up to 81 500.
The record price from the minors in
recent seasons was $1,000 that the
Giants paid Indianapolis for Rube
Vanguard. a pitcher. whose chief as
sett in fast company. seems to be a
past reputation and a crooked neck.
Clark Grifith In the exhilaration of
blowing Garry Herman's Cincinnati
money, coughed up $1,000 to Macon.
Ga, Class c league club, for Ben
ton, a pitcher. Benton made his first
appearance Tuesday. and looked like
a remnant.
The major league magnate is sup
posed TO be fairly reeking with money
and a desire to recruit When the
scout passes among the minors, and
there Is small army of scouts in this
day aud age, the minor league owner
adopts a smooth method. He plays
one scout against another.
"Deti oit offers so much, how r-uch
will you give for Pitcher Swift" the
magnate asks. The Cleveland man
wires home for Instructions and re-
ports.
Then when the Detroit scout tries
to tall business the bid OF the Cleve-
land man is waved in his face - he
is asked for little more. 50 1t goes
until the purchase price has been
swelled a thousand or two.
This gentle system is worked by
mail. also The magnate with ma
terial at his disposal writes every

Action on the Diamond VIII Be
Resumed This Afternoon if

The rain played havoc with the ball
players and the fans yesterday after
noon. All was in readiness for the
second meeting between the Seals and
the second division of the White Sox,
but it had to be called of. Manager
Danny Long of the local outfit was out
at the park bright and early and even
went so far as TO spread the big can
vas on the diamond. Several of the
prayed for the rain TO lay of for a
while. but their prayers were of no
avail
The same condition prevailed over in
Oakland. The coast and the state
leaguers were ready to line up for
their initial meeting OF the season. and
the fans seemed to be well worked up
over it. As the Oakland diamond is a
skin affair. il looked very much like
lake half an hour before playing time
rolled around, and of course there was
no chance in the world for the players
to do any good. so the meeting was
called of.
There viii be three games on both
sides of the bay today, provided that
the sun shines brightly enough this
