Williams Bad Luck
Makes Deal LikeIier;
zauchin May Be Key
By Burton Hawkins
Stcr Sacff cerrsspondent

ORLANDO. Fla. Mar. 2.-Joe
Cronin, general manager Of the
Red Sox. is due here today in an
attempt to obtain Mickey ver-
non. holdout first baseman. from
the Senator'S.
Calvin Griffith. vice president
of the Senator's, admitted that
Cronin is en- route here and that
their discussions will revoive
around Vernon. whose salary de-
mands have angered his bosses.
Vernon has reduced his de-
mands $500 to $4,000 but the
league leading hitter and WASH
ington officials still are $4,000
apart and prospects of their
settling the dispute appear re-
mote. Calvin said that when
they parted yesterday after a
conference that neither side
mentioned the possibility Of an
other meeting.
Washington's bargaining pow
err has increased in the last "a
hours because of the broken coll
larbone suffered by slugging Ted
Williams yesterday at Sarasota,
and the prospects of a deal be-
tween the clubs have frightened.
May Try for Zauchin.
The Senators may concentrate
their efforts on obtaining Norbert
Zauchin. towering 24-year-old
first baseman recently discharged
from the service. Zauchin, a
right-handed hitter from Royal
Oak. Mich. is 220-pounder who
stands GA and is rated an out
standing prospect.
Zauchin batted only .267 with
Louisville in 1851 before entering
the service. but the sort of power
he displays is indicated by the
104 runs he batted across. The
previous year with Birmingham
he connected for IS home runs.
The Senators are showing no
conjunction about trading YER
non despite his 1877 average OF
last year. with his near-36 age
figuring in their reasoning. The
Grifhths regard their $4,000 raise
offer to Mickey as fair and have
stated firmly they won't bulge
beyond $25, 900.
The Red Sox are short on
front-line pitchers and conse-
quently the Senators aren't likely
to emphasize a request for an
other starter.
No Ordinary Dispute.
Vernon. regarded in some
quarters as having his bosses
over a barrel. doesn't intimidate
them with his holdout tactics.
They attempted to unload him
during the winter because of his
age but found no takers because
OF the same factor. Now they're
willing to take less enviable
deal to get rid of a fellow whose
money requests have become in
tolerable to them.
The fuss with Vernon is no
ordinary exchange of differences
between player and clubowner.
Both sides may yield a bit, but
the $4,000 gap separating them
seems to be too much of a
canyon. Bitterness has cropped
out and 84-year-old Clark Crit
nth can be tough bird when
aroused.
II Boston's regard for Zauchin
is lofty. the Senators may settle
for Dick Gernert. 24-year-old
right-handed hitter who batted
.253 last season. A 6-foot-3, 21O-
FOUNDER, Gernert slammed 81
home runs last year and batted
in II runs.
