Larry Dolby Signs
$4,000 White
Sox Contract

Chicago, Jan. % - An elated
Larry Dolby, the smuggling sensation
of the Chicago White Sox, had
a $4,000 seasonal contract dangled
before his eyes last week and
nothing more was needed to excite
his ink pen into action.
Thus did the big centerfielder
join the ranks of contented White
Sox, although Sox officials said
Dolby signed at the same salary
he received last year.
Last season Doby's first with the
Sox after leaving Cleveland, found
the hard-hitting outfielder hamp-
cred by a fungus growth on one
hand an prostate trouble. He re-
ported that he has recovered from
both.
Larry led the Chicago South
Siders in runs batted in last year,
accounting for 1902. He lost "a balls
via the home run route, and drew
102 walks in 140 games. His batting
average last year 1868.
The former Cleveland Indian &C
complished this despite being
hampered by ailments.
The White Sox front office re-
ceived Doby's contract by mail
with an accompanying letter thank
ing officials for the "fine treat
ment" he had received in Chicago
Larry became the third Comis-
key Parker to sign for 1857, being
preceded by shortstop Luis Apa-
ricio and pitcher Jack Harshamn.

Says He Doesn't
Plan To Retire

Kansas City, Mo-, Jan. 29-In-
dicating that he may go into semi
pro baseball, Leroy (Satchel)
Paige, rated by many as the grand
daddy of baseball, said last week
that he definitely ais not ready
to retire from the diamond"
"Satch," who answers to the age
of 81, had an excellent season with
Miami in the International League
in 1866. chalking up IA wins
against 4 losses.
The ancient pitcher, who has a
lifetime record in baseball that is
probably the envy of many big
league hurlers, expressed an am
bition to return to semi-pro after
25 years and regain the title Df
most valuable player in the annual
national tournament in Wichita,
Kansas.
National Baseball Congress of
ficials said Paige won the title
almost singlehandedly for Bis
marck, N. D., in the first tourna-
ment in 1885. He was credited with
four straight pitching wins in
seven games taken by Bismarck.
His NBC record of an average
of Is strikeouts per game down
through the years, still stands.
The NBC awarded Satch the
"Most Valuable Player" award
title for a 20-year period in 1854.
Says Paige of his age, at doesn't
do any good for me to tell my right
age. The fans think Pm not telling

Eta Molten, and businessman
Lloyd Kerford. In the spring of
1866 a stream of letters, visitors
and phone calls flowed into Phila-

for him. Finally, Phog Allen him

len says: Lets be realistic. Until
1916 | never had any help. Then
alumni started to sweeten the pot.
Well, | heard that another coach
charged us with giving Wilt $4,000.
Well, if he charges $5,O00-and
he's sore about it-why then that
must mean someone was dickering

Gets Standard Help
Today, LIFE says, Wilt openly
gets standard athletic help-free
board, room, tuition and books, plus
S135 for selling football programs
and sweeping the stadium. He ma
jors in business administration and
is an average student. His faculty
adviser says his only problem is
"too much publicity"
Ironically, Phog Allen. the man
who brought Wilt to Kansas and
who calls him "the greatest basket
ball player l ever saw" has been
forced to quit as his coach because
last year he reached the Univer-
sity's compulsory retirement age of
70. Today Allen watches Wits
amazing performances from the
stands. He says, admiringly, L

girls, two Phi Bet Kappas and Wilt

The only team to beat Kansas
this year was Iowa State and they
did it by ganging up on Wilt and
holding him to II points. But the
Silt leads the nation in scoring
with a 30.6-point-a-game average,
and deserves an assist for many
