Sports Roundup

NEW YORK R-Next time the
big league clubowners get together
for the purpose Of wondering how
to revive tagging attendance, they
might forget television for a few
minutes and have the secretary
read them the figures on how
much each of the Yankees and
Dodgers received for playing in
this years World Series.
They will learn that each full
grown member of the winning club
was mailed a check for $3.50 So,
which Is more than a lot of other
big league players are paid for a
full seasons effort. Those who
were away on hunting trips at the
time also will be amazed to find
that each Brooklyn hero was re.
warded to the tune of $6,17s,42 for
losing.
The figures are not new to the
average fan, but they will bear
repetition here because, in this
corners opinion, they have grown
out of all proportion to the salary
framework Of baseball and are in
danger of becoming real menace
to the game unless someone rises
to say look here.
II the magnates themselves are
mot smart enough to see that such
a slaphappy payoff to the two pen
nant winners is threat to player
morale on all the other clubs and
that they might never again have

reason prevails, then they should
not be surprised If they hear some.

BY SHELDON sAKoWlTz

NEW YORK R - Brooklyn's

honorS in the American League

Snider's booming bat accounted
for $40 total bases in 500 trips to
the plate. The 27-year-old outfield-
