Finishing in Fifth Places, Men
Have No Cry Coming
for Raises. I

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 12.-With the
salary of ball player measured q
year behind the work presented
neither local club is expected to ext
perience any difficulty in deposit
ing the signed documents this win
ter. Both not only finished out
Cf the world series money, but in
fifth place.
Following the triumph of 1922,
when the Browns were a nose be-
hind the Yankees for the pennant,
Bob Quinn had to unload a chunk
Of gold to satisfy his players. And
why not-the season Melted close to
$500, 900 for the owners.
If salaries are balanced accord
ing to batting averages, Ken VIII.
liams is the only member in the
Brownie stable who will put up q
fuss for an increase.
Williams showed an increase OF
twenty-five points from 1922 to
1928. Ken, the home-run leader in
1922, was second last season.
Other members of The Browns
hung close to their 1922 marks.
With the fire put out in the camp
before the season opened, owing to
the absence of George Sisler, the
athletes were depressed.
Hickey should not be worried over
any hold-out demands. The con-
tract on Hornsby covers the 1924
season. Bottomley is entitled to a
stiff increase and no doubt will get
it. Howard Freigau is another who
should advance, considering that
he came in on a low salary.
AS instances of ball players re-

portance. There was Jacques Four
nier, who talked about a business
career when he was traded to the
Superbas, but who eventually re-
ported and then completely proved
that long training trip is not es-
sential by ranking third in the

the best tribute paid to the men,

the razz because all rockies get

me and helped me along. He
