NEW ORLEANS EVENTS

New Orleans. Jan. 27.--Favorite
players had one OF the biggest days of
the meeting Mt the Fall Grounds today.
Four choices were successful, while
Mary II. at Q to 2, accounted for the
second event. Brian Boru. at 20 to !,
upset the dope by winning the final
race. There was no particular feature
carded. A mile and 70-yard race.
which went to Bertodano, the 7 to 8
favorite, was the fourth on the pro-
gram. Bertodano was easily the best,
and won without any trouble. Dude
and Business Agent made the pace
for six furlongs, but when Metcalf
turned Bertodano loose the race was
over an eighth OF a mile from the
finish. Judge Murphy notified s. STAN
ton, owner of Stout Heart. Kate X, and
other horses, that no further entries
will be received from him during the
remainder of the meeting. Suspension
against Jockey Burger on January IS,
for his ride on Stout Heart was made
permanent today. The permanent sus
pension virtually means that Burger
stands ruled off the turf.

Clubs in organized baseball, as well
as the Federal league, are apparent
ly finding 1t a hard matter to dis
pose of surplus players, as news of
sales has been unusually scarce since
the peace agreement.
Reason for the inability of man
ayers In the big leagues to get rid of
surplus pi@yers lie found In the un-
usual condition, at the present time.
Before the war ended nearly every
player worth keeping even for a trial
was placed under contract. In or
der to pass players from minor to
major league clubs under war condi-
lions II was necessary to employ In
teriocktng contracts. Before being
bought by a big league club a player
signed q contract with the latter.
Regular players were placed under
contract as much as possible before
their contracts expired. Hence, with
few exceptions, National American
and Federal league players are un-
der contract at the present time and
for O good figure. Many of them are
straight contracts, too, and must be
lived up to, while unconditional re-
lease would have to be given under
the ten-day clause in others.
Minor league clubs were all but
down and out last season owing to the
war and must regain their financial
standing before they are in position
to pay high salaries. Before the war,
the American Association and Pacific

MINOR ORGANIZATIONS MAY

Coast League were paying salaries
larger than those in the National
League before the American League
broke in: in fact larger than ia tine
American and National Leagues after
peace was declared. in many in
stances. Last year salaries were cut
hard in the minor leagues from top
to bottom. This year the minor
leagues are also showing a disposj
ton to keep salaries down to bedrock,
Hence players from the major leagues
with big salaries are not wanted, ever
IL they can be obtained for nothing.
Selling players with this kind OF con-
tracts appears all but impossible.
1t looks as though In many cases
the big leaguers will have to agree to
stand part of the, salary of the play
ers going to the minors In order to
avoid paying all, or giving unoonai-
tionai releases. In other words. the
minor leagues, which were last year
bearing the brunt OF the war between
the big leagues, are In n position TO
do some of the debating since peacA
