BASEBALL BRANDED
 AS B|G BUSINESS
Value Of Big League Clubs Is Now S50,000,000, Says Ruppert

New York. March 14 Pl-The add cd leisure of American business men and the incre, d interest in all sports that comes of playing golf and other games has helped jump the present day value of the major league baseball clubs to S10, 0,O0e, GOO, in the opinion of Colonel Jacob Rup- pert, owner Of the New York Yankees.
 Golf was supposed 10 have taken fans from the ball parks. yet think in reality golf has increased interest in baseball, l suppose you might call it the sporting, the athletic complex" he said.
 The Yankee magnate thinks that Americans are more leisurcly these days too. "The American idea used to be 10 work early and late. The business man used to start his tasks at eight a. nl., or earlier and quit al 6. Now he starts at g in the morn- ing and quits earlier in the after noon. And this is true of all classes
 Baseball j "bic business" today. he said, in explaining the amazing growth Of the game in the past ten or 13 years. With Colonel T. l.. Houston. Rupert bought the Yankees for S260.o00 in 1915. when the club was by no means the low est quoted on the baseball exchange. The value Of none of the seven or ganizations in the American league at that time was over $l,00o.00O. he thought The National league values were slightly higher.
 Now the American league clubs are worth a total Of S25,000,0oo, Ruppert said, and the National lea sue has the same value. Babe Ruth alone will represent an investment of S600, 900 by the Yankee manage ment when he has completed his three year contract calling for an- nual pay of S70,oQQ The Ruth fig ure included purchase price and sal ary payments, he said.
 Baseball has undergone some wonderful changes" Colonel Ruppert continued. The game did not war rant such an inves' ment as Ruth dozen years ago. Today il is good business.
 Baseball has attracted better class of players. There are no rouglneCkS" left in the big leagues. The average intelligence is greater and play on the field $ cleaner. This cleaner baseball has done much to increase the crowds and especially the interest among woman."
