T0DAy'S SPORT ANGLE

1t is impossible to make money in
any business where more money is
being spent than is taken in.
That is the situation hat has pre-
vailed in the minor leagues for sew
eral years. If they are TO continue
in business il must be remedied.
Unfortunately for mos minor
leagues, there is usually n owner
in every circuit who is in baseball
simply as a sideline. 1t is a sport
with him rather than a business.
OF course it is the desire of every
owner to have a winner. The mag
nate in the game merely for sports
sake, doesn't think of the money IN
volved. He simply wants a winner.
Profits mean nothing to him.
In order to keep up with that type
OF magnate, a number of the others

a general loss throughout the league,
rather than a tidy profit, If the mag
nate observed the salary limitations.
