WANTS $lQ,0OO
 FOR RELEASE
 OF PITCHER

LOS ANGELES, May 29.--A new price was set as to the value of a minor league bas ball player accord ing to information just obtained, when George Putnam, Secretary of the San Francisco Club of the Pa cific Coast League, yesterday told Denny Lonf, scout on the coast for the Chicago Americans, what he wanted for Willie Kamm, the star third baseman of the Seals. As an expression of value, saying that Kamm is worth his weight in gold is understanding the case. Putnam only wants one hundred thousand dollars and three pitchers. for Kamm Kamm has been playing a whirlwind game for the San Francisco team, and is undoubtedly of major league calibre.
