Retired Weiss Gets
Big Job, Two Salaries

MIAMI BEACH, Mar. Is
(AP). Retirement for busy
George Weiss apparently means
a big new job and two salaries.
Weiss, who left his long time
job as general manager Of the
New York Yankees last October
after he had passed the clubs
mandatory retirement age, was
named president of the New
York National League club yes
terday. He will take up his
duties Immediately. although
the club is not scheduled to op-
crate until 1862.
The appointment brought ur
the question of whether base
ball law will permit him to re-
ceive salaries from two clubs.
The 66-year-old Weiss has
been serving as a consultant to
President Dan Topping of the
Yanks and has been receiving
a salary under a carry-over
contract which has five years
to run. The new arrangement
was made with Topping's ap-
proval.
Asked about the dual salary
situation, Weiss said:
IT see no reason why not

as long as one is not dependent
on the other and there is no
conflict of interest. Actually
my income from the Yankees
is at a reduced scale and repre-
sentS deferred compensation.
It is money I earned the previ-
Gus year. That income will be
further adjusted now that I'm
with another club"
AS consultant Weiss report
edly was receiving about $685.
000-half his former Yankee
salary. Estimates put his pay
as president Of the Still-un-
named new club at $4,000.
Since a clause in his contract
with the YankS stipulated he
could not become general man
ager of another major league
club for a year, Weiss was
named president of the Ma
tionals, replacing Donald Grant,
who became head of the board
Of directors. Charles Hurth
continues as general manager.
Neither Weiss nor Grant
would indicate who may become
field manager of the club,
though Leo Durocher and Casey
Stengel have been mentioned
as possibilities.

Yanks' Slump
BY the Associated Press

Beset by ambushes along
baSeball'S exhibition trial the
New York Yankees were faced
today with the prospect of
opening the season without
their southpaw relief artist,
Luis Arroyo.
The portly, 32-year-old left
handler was struck on the left
wrist in batting practice yes
terday by a line drive off the
bat of rookie Catcher Jesse
Gonder just before the winless
Yankees went out and lost
their fourth in a row, Al, to
the Milwaukee Braves.
Arroyo, who won five and lost
one while making 80 relief ap-
pearances in last years pen
nant drive after being brought
up from the international
League, suffered an oblique
fracture of the ulna bone. He
will be out of action from three
to four weeks.
While the Yankees were un-
able to come up with victory
No. /, the Los Angeles Dodgers
came through, making Pitts
burgh their first victim with
an 8-3 decision that snapped
the previously unbeaten Pirates

Princeton got a terrific game
from several players, notably
hespectacled Pete Campbell, a
E6-foot-l speed boy who scored
q points.
MarkOwitz Scores 25
Dick Markowitz was GW's
top scorer with Is points, and
there was a big drop down to
the next man. Bill Ingram. who
netted IL. Little Jon Feldman
was held far below his average
with IL.
Don Swan, one of the Tigers
starters. suffered a conclusion
in the opening minutes of the
game and was removed to a
hospital for observation. He
probably will make the trip
to Charlotte but his playing
status is doubtful.
Swan was knocked down try
ing to get a rebound and struck
the left side of his head. He
was bleeding badly from his
ear and appeared semi-con-
scious when carried from the
court. .
After the first few minutes
Princeton led throughout, but
there were several times when
the Colonials showed flashes
of the come-from-behind form
that made them the rags-to-
riches kids of the Southern
Conference. Each time the tt
gers put out the fire and re-
mained in charge.
ColoniaIs Cut Lead
Midway through the opening
half. the Tigers worked up an
eight-point lead at 1922. Here
Markowitz inserted a three
point play and Feldman came
through with his first two field
goals of the night to pull within
one point at 1929. But a pair
of foul shots by Campbell fol-
lowed by an outside shot again
opened daylight. and the Tigers
held on for a 41-34 half-time
lead.
To open the second half,
Ingram drove in with a layup
to cut the lead to five points,
but CIV never got that close
again. Campbell and Art Hy-
land led the Tigers to a 13-
point lead. 52-39. with only
