PLAYERS ACCEPT
SALARY REDUCTION

AS a general proposition the players
Of the Coast league seem to take the
view that the best thing to do is ac-
cept the reductions in salaries pro-
posed by the CLUB owners, though the
players, as is natural, find it hard TO
reconcile the leagues demands for
economies with the reports of good
attendance that have been sent out
But it is a case of take il or quit, and
as no better jobs are in sight, what
can the ball player do? The dis
closures incident to the salary agita-
ton reveal that the Coast clubs have
not been paying such high salaries as
some believed. The average does not
seem to be much over $500 a month.

A LOSING pitcher in baseball
n works 80 percent harder than
L - the winner.
Roy Mitchell. member of the Vernon
pitching staff. is the author Of that
statement and he should know, for
he has been pitching ball for a num-
Der Of years
From an endurance standpoint
alone I would rather pitch three win

course Of a tanning bee.

gun in the navy or behind in a base
ball game.

often enough to tell which is the
hardest on a pitcher.
In the first place, if you are pitch
ing a game and your team has put you
out in the lead YOU know that the
opposing batsmen will have to hit you
to win the game. You know just how
to play for them. But il they are
ahead the man may experiment on
you. They may bunt, hit or try any
or all of the various systems Then
again when you are losing, you have
you pitch TO the harder the strain is
on your arm
IF you are ahead yau can ease up
little after you get one or two men
out in an inning, but if you are be-
hind you have to keep on pitching
against players who have the conf
dence they can hit you
Pitching is about the same way as
boxing Two men are in the ring and
one fellow is getting hammered The
fellow on the receiving end of the
punches. as a rule. is striving harder
