CRAvATH PICKS REDS
Says Cinclnnatl's Good Luck VIII
Continue In World Series

Boston, Sept. 5.--Cactus Cravath,
hard hitting manager of the Phillies,
picks Pat Moran's Cincinnati Reds to
clean up the Chicago White Sox in the
worlds series. "The club that gets the
breaks will win," said Cravath, "and
Pats club has been getting so many
of them this season it will go into the
series with a firm belief in its own
luck. That is, call it luck. You can
call it psychology if you want to.
ITO my way of thinking" Gavvy
added, "the Reds are playing better
ball than the White Sox and will prove
far steadier in the big money duel de-
spite the previous world series experience
of the Chicago Club. Moran has fine
ball team, good youngsters and first
class pitchers. Above all, Pat is a
wonderful manager. But l don't have
to tell anybody that"

BALL MEN IN n. Y.
SUBJECT TO TAX
Players and Umpires From
Other States Come Under
New New York Law
PAYABLE NEXT MARCH

Albany. \. Y. Sept. 5.-Profcs
sional baseball players and umpires. no
matter what their club affiliations may
be, who participate in games played in
New York state this year will be sub
ject to the provisions of New York s
new income tax law, Comptroller Eu-
gene NJ. Travis ruled today.
This means, it was explained at the
. .comptroller's office, that players and
umpires of the National, American and
international leagues and others sim
ilarly situated whose residences and
home teams are located in other states
will be required to pay an income tax
on the money earned while they are
playing in New York if this amounts
to more than $1,000.
Coincidentally, players and umpires
of New York clubs will not be required
to pay a tax on their salaries earned
in games played outside the state.
The decision was rendered in re-
sponse to inquiries from baseball off
cials, who previously had been notified
by the comptroller that the statute re-
quires them to act as withholding agents
and to deduct the amount of tax due
the state. The tax is payable next
March on this years incomes.
