L. ID. SAMPSON PUTS
OVER ANOTHER ENTERPRISE

The Newark, New Jersey, Ath-
letic Club gave an informal recep-
tion to its members on November
1st in It's building which is nearly
completed. Mr.. Lewis d. Sampson,
brother of Judge F. d. Sampson of
the Kentucky Court of Appeals, was
the organizer of the Newark Athle-
tic Club. He created and executed
the plan for procuring the members
Beginning with the day in 1919 on
which he was engaged to build up
a large membership, he advanced
every cent of money laid out until
such time as the club was able to
meet its own obligations.
When Mr.. Sampson was employed
by the president of the Club, there
was no money in the treasury and
the club had a total of 81 members.
Mr.. SIMPSONS plan and work re-
suited in more than 2,70O members
each Of whom pledged himself to
pay an initiation fee of not less than
$4,000. The clubs ground and
building represents an investment of
about 100000.
President Edward D. Duffield. of
the Prudential Insurance Company
Of Newark, a member of the Board
of Governors of the Newark Athle-
tic Club, was one of the speakers at
the informal reception November l.
He spoke OF the great benefit the
club would be to Newark, a city of
nearly half a million people.
Among other things he said:
This club should awaken a town
that has slept too long. The club
will make for live citizenship that
has the interests Of the city at heart
and will work for Newark. 1t will
be great thing to feel that we
haven't served only our own selfish
interests in the establishment of the
club. What we have done here is
done that Newark and all that it
means should be a realization and
not a dream"

At various times since the old play
ers' fraternity ceased to function, the
players have been considering the
formation Of another organization.
The demand for such a protective
body was felt to have been acute last
winter when Babe" Ruth, Bob Meusel
and Bill Piercy were suspended for
violating the anti-barnstorm rule.
Think Rule Is Unjust.
The players took the position that
the rule was unjust to them and that
practically all of the rules along the
same line were drawn from the club
owners viewpoint alone.
Efforts also will be made, it is I'M
derstOOd, to have a different form of
contract adopted in the major leagues.
The players maintain that under the
present system they haven't a chance
to have a voice in their own affairs
and have no appeal from a form of
virtual slavery" that the present
form of contract places them in.
The players also. would like to have
some kind of an arbitration board for
the review of salary disputes.

and particularly of able first sackers.
The Cardinals were weak at that sta
ton at the time and Hendricks decided
to give the flashy kid a chance. Grimm
failed to measure up to major league
standards, and st. Louis let him out to
Little Rock of the Southern asSOcia-
ton, without strings on him. That
is the mysterious part of the entire af
fair. Grimm went big in the Dixie cir
cult in 1919 and thereby won a trial
with the Pirates. His style of playing
appealed to Manager Gibson and he
landed a regular berth right off the
reel in 1920.
Grimm, the peer of any first base
man in the John Heydler circuit, not
even excepting Daubert, lived up to
all the nice things said about his han
ding the pellet, but he failed to set the
world on fire as hitter last season.
However, he has shown a vast i'm
provement in this department of the
game this season and his batting has
been a big help in keeping the Pirates
at the head of the list.

HELPS WIN BASEBALL GAMES
Nothing More Conducive to Success Of
Local Team Than Hearty Sup
port of Fans.

After all, one of the things which
helps a team win is the support of the
home folk. It's so in all kinds of
sports, particularly baseball. With the
fans full of pep, cheering the athletes
on, it is easier to respond. With the
fans giving the razz, II is easier for
the players to drop into a slump. Many
baseball games have been won by the
fans as well as the players.

EXPENDITURES INCREASE

Perhaps in no other sport is
there as much expense as in the
running of a ball team, and the
cost has increased greatly since
the early days of the game.
There is an authentic record of
receipts and expenditures of the
Boston club for the year 1875.
The total receipts for the season
were S37. 767 .06 and the expenses
were $34, 800 90, which left a bal
ance of $3.26107. A profitable
season in those times. Now, fig
ure McGraw's team as an eX-
ample. Two players cost him
$4,000 without figuring any
thing else Babe Ruth'S salary
alone is probably twice the
amount of the total receipts of
the Boston team back in 1875,
and there were good ball play
ers in those days, too.
