The Climb Starts.
In 1887 when Detroit and st. Louis
played fourteen games in nearly .
dozen cities the receipts amounted to
$4,000. about 5000 a game. which
was then considered q large amount
The following year $24.3S2 was taken
in for the ten games played by New
York and St. Louis. The first year OF
the Temple cup series. 1884. four
games were played and the average
per game YVES $500 at Baltimore and
New York. There was a falling ON
a year later when the Cleveland-B alti-
more series of five games realized
only $14,750.
A marked increase in attendance and
receipts was registered in 1909 when
Las, 2s5 persons paid S1ss, 1902 to see the
seven-game series between Pittsburgh
and Detroit. Philadelphia and Chicago
played five games in 1910. before 1874
222 persons with gate receipts Of $113,-
$50 and this, amount was almost dOu-
bied the following year when 1913
Philadelphia and New York series Of
six games.
Each of the winning players on the
winning side in 1903. the first year that
the series was played under the condi-
tiOns which now prevail, received ST.
316.25 and each Of the losing players got
81 1872. In 1912 the Boston winners re-
ceived A.022 each and the New York
losers were handed 1856 each. Last
year each player of the Athletics got a
winning portion of $3.246.36 and the los
ing share for each New York player
was &2,164.22
The basis upon which the worlds
series receipts are divided is as fol-
lows: The national commission receives
10 per cent of the receipts OF each and
every game. The players of the, two
competing clubs receive 60 per cent of
the remaining 80 per cent of the first
four games played. The sum is divided 60
per cent to the winners and 40 per cent
to the losers. The remaining 40 per
cent of the 80 per cent Of the first four
games goes to the club owners. 80 per
cent of the receipts Of every game af-
ter the first four becomes the property
of the stockholders Of the two contest
ing clubs.
Details Of attendance and division of
the receipts each year since 1903 are
as follows:
