BY HENRY L. FARRELL,
Omitted Press Sports EditorD

NEW YORK. Sept. 20.-(t. Po-
General opinion rates nrofessona
baseball as one of the best paying
sports for athletes,
Some mistaken notions, however
are spread regarding the big salaries
paid to ball players, according to Rey
]. Cannon, who is helping the players
to form an organization.
Cannon gays that the average salary
of the professional baseball player is
$4,000 a year.
One might have the opinion that
most of the players were getting 1T
least $4,000 a year if the yelps of the
club owners were taken at face value.
During the White SOX expose it Vas
brought out how little ComisteV was
paying his stars and Phil Douglas r.
Gently claimed that he was getting
only $4,000 before he was banished
from the New York Giants.
Douglas was the best pitcher in the
National League. and if his salary was
the standard for the best players in
the league, the players have good rc7-
son to howl.
Cannon maintains that the club
owners keep boasting about the sal
airy paid to big stars and that they il!-
tentionally allow figures twice the am
cunt of the real salary paid 20 the
stars to be published and circulated.
1t was generally believed that Bahc
Ruth was getting close to 100000 a
year from the Yanks until Ban Jonn-
son let the information slip out that
he wasn't getting half that sum.
Salary disputes are not the only
grievances behind the organization of
the players union. The men who are
making the game good for immense
profits to the club owners object to
the form of the contract which doesn't
give them chance and they also
kick against conditions which make
them virtual slaves.
