Players, Owners
Near Agreement

NEW YORK R-After three
days of bitter accusations major
league baseball players and owners
seemed close TO agreement today
on the pension question.
President Walter o'Malley of
the Brooklyn Dodgers, who Spon-
sored a resolution to consider the
ACCESSIBILITY of ending the pension
plan, denied he was trying to kill
the idea.
Instead, he said, the purpose
of his resolution was to improve
the benefits to the players.
He admitted the wording Of the
resolution was perhaps mislead-
ing and certainly unfortunate" but
explained that ii would be neces-
sary to terminate the old plan il
4 new and better one was to be
put into effect.
O'Malley said the players had
every right to seek an increase
in benefits, but he added that this
could not be done under the terms
of the present contract. He said
increases in benefits could be at.
tanned after the current contract
expired and a new one was nego-
tiated.
"But We cannot commit our.
selves now for what we believe
will take place in the future"
o'Malley explained.
0'Malley still insisted that Ralph
Kiner and Allie Reynolds, the
player representatives, agreed to
his resolution last Sept. % at the
meeting of basebal's Executive
Council.
"The only one opposed to my
resolution was Commissioner Ford
Frick," 0'Malley continued. ''He
thought it would endanger the pen
sion plan and he did not want
to agree to anything that might
jeopardize the players benefits.
Kiner, Reynolds and Lewis q.
Norman Lewis, their attorney
were in full agreement, however.
and signified thus in voice vote"
O'Malley also denied the con-
tention by Lewis and former Com.
missioner A. B, (Happy) Chandler
that all the television and radio
money from the World Series and
Al-Star Game belongs to the
players.
Chandler and Lewis know that
is not so and the players should
know 1t too," he said.
