sy he Assoeiassd Press

NEW YORK. Jan. Shy twos
and threes. the New York Giants
daily announce signings Of satis-
fed hirelings. The total is now
%.
But q check of the list fails to
produce the names Of such bul-
warks Of the National League
champions as Bobby Thomson and
Larry Jansen, Sal Maglie and Jim
HearT1, the big three Of the pitch
ing staff.
The list Of satisfied players does
include such regulars as Whitley
Lockman, Don Mueller, Max La
nier, Monte Irwin and Alvin Dark.
But it is also swelled by such vir-
tual unknownS as Rudy Rufer,
Ronald Sanford and Hoyt VIII
helm, who, signed yesterday.
It is too early to describe jan
sen, Hearn. Maglie, Thomson and
other unsigned Giants as hold
outs. The Giants. however. figure
to have q tough time signing
some Of them.
Maglie. in fact, Is in town, eager
and ready to talk business with
his bosses. He arrived yesterday.
A Giant official predicted the club
would have no dificu1ty getting
Sal to come to terms. He said
the club and the veteran right
handler were not far apart in their
estimates Of the 35-year-old right
handlers ability.
1T isn't very serious" Giant
oflcial assured. 1--WE have a couple
Of fellows who threaten to become
holdouts. But Maglie is not one Of
. them. Sal has been given q SUBJ
stantial increase but believed he
is entitled to q little more. I'm
sure we'll have no dificulty get
ting together.
An original estimate that Maglie
has been offered So, 500, but was
asking for $4,000 more was later
revised. It seems the native of
Niagara Falls is asking $40, 900 for
next season.
Maglie's % won and six lost
record made him the Giants top
pitcher for the second successive
year.
