MAJORS ESCAPE

Prick Says Minors Will Be
Affected by Army Call
This Season, However

NEW YORK, Jan. 16-The fact
that baseball has made a practice
ofspaying its young men a land
some wage now promises to pay
dividends and enable the national
pastime to escape any mortal hurt
by the operations of the draft,
President Ford Prick of the Ma
tional league said today.
The great majority of u play
ers are married and have families,
thank goodness" said Prick as he
looked out from behind a mass Of
draft data he had obtained from
the individual club S of his
circuit. by the time they reach
the big leagues ball players are
making enough money to marry,
and that's usually the first thing
they do.
For the present I'm afraid the
minor leagues are going to be the
most seriously affected. Most OF
their coming stars are single and
without dependents. But, of course,
il the draft continues for several
years we will feel the effects more
and more
Unfortunately, baseball players
very seldom, if ever, can regain
their peak after being away from
the game a year. At least, none OF
the fellows who held out for a sea-
son and then tried to come back
ever was as good again.
That part of it scares me. And
what makes it worse is the fact
that a player drafted during the
season will, in effect. lose two
years, and his club will have to
figure on replacing him for two
campaigns. The only thing we hope
is that this can be avoided in some
measure"
Prick, hopeful of learning with
some degree of accuracy what
players his clubs stand to lose to
the army in the coming year, ask
ed each team to forward him a
list of players, with draft number
and the drawn number of each.
Now he has all the information,
and he confesses he doesn't know
a bit more than he did before.
s Here I've got all the numbers,
they don't mean a thing" he
incurred. 1--we got to start all
over now and find out from each
player where he stands on his 10.
cal board list. It's all very, very
complicated.
For instance, here's one play
.er, Walker Cooper of the Cardinals
with number six, drawn. But that
doesn't signify that he's practical
ly in the army already. My son,
Fred, was drawn number 1917, yet

"Other low numbers in the league
