A Monkey on Their Backs

BALTIMORE, June IS. - Those who
would pin the label of business" on major
league baseball just haven't been reading
the papers lately. Monkey business" might
fit the ludicrous practice of shelling out
thousand dollar bills to schoolboys who
still treasure Mickey Mantle's autograph
If only one clubowner were doing it, his
family and fellow stockholders would haul
him before sanity hearing on the grounds
that he no longer was competent to handle
his own affairs. The men in white jackets
would be waiting in the wings.
But everybody is doing it and this is
the basis for one of the most monStrous
jokes of our time. The Yankees did not like
paying 100000 to Jake Gibbs The Athletics
gritted their teeth privately and smiled
publicly when they handed $125, 900 to Lew
Krausse, jr. The Senators put out $65,O00
for an infielder named Ed Brinkman, but
General Manager Ed Doherty admittedly
always has been opposed to big bonus pay
ments.
The practice - unless checked - will
wreck baseball, according to Lee MacPhail,
president of the Orioles, another of the
free-Spending outfits
"The way things are going" MacPhail
says, "a lot of clubs will be broke in five
years, and we'll probably be one of them"
The exceptions will be the high-budget Or
ganizations like the Los Angeles Dodgers,
who repeatedly pay out Accent dollars be-
cause of tax savings.
Nobody blames the youngsters in the
receiving line, though their fathers have
had to stop telling them that you have to
work for everything you get in this world.
ut makes us a laughing stock" says
Manager Paul Richards of the Orioles. cit
tends to destroy the confidence of fans in
baseball to think that the people who run
it are really that silly"
All the club officials agree that the
paying out of large bonuses to untried ap-
prentices is stupidity carried to the ex-
treme. Yet they all do it for the simple
reason they can't find way to stop. In
short, they have monkey on their backs.
Richards has plan to get the monkey
off. MY plan," he says, would be to put
all bonus kids on first-year draft unless
they were on the roster of the parent club

Pattern Reversed
Donovan has jumped from
the bottom to the top of Dame
Fortunes list. He dropped five
decisions in a row before luck
turned his way. He won against
Kansas City, but the Senators
proceeded to lose their next
five in a row. The big right

for at least 80 days of the season After
that first season, the club could farm him
out for three years.
''The player limit for most of the sea-
son is Is. So bonus player would have to
be one of those Is. That would limit club
automatically to the number of high bon
uses they would be able to risk"
Those not on the parent-club roster for
go days could be drafted for $12,5OO. "This
SYSTEM" Richards says, "leaves the door
open. If we wanted kid badly enough,
we'd top everybody else and take him. We'd
make room for him on our roster.
"A lot of the other good players we'd
sign we couldn't put on our roster No room.
We'd have to put them in the minor leagues
and that would leave the door open for the
other clubs to draft them. The laSt-place
club would get first crack at them and that
would be good"
The plans sounds fine, but it has
couple of drawbacks that Richards readily
admits. First of all, the clubs probably won't
buy it.
1.-THE trouble is,' Richards says, that
everybody thinks that bonus rule will
work against him only. Each club thinks it
will be the only club with the good, young
players that will be drafted.
"The truth is, nobody is smart enough
to Judge ballplayers. It's impossible. Branch
Hickey got reputation for being real
smart Judge of ballplayers. What he did
was sign everybody and some of them came
along"
The other insignificant factor working
against any kind of bonus rule hardly is
worth noting Clubowners cheat>
Everybody cheated before when we

The major league trading
deadline goes into effect at mid
night tonight, and if there are
any late-hour surprises they'll
have to go some to top that
switch by Charles o. Finley
Kansas City owner.
Although Finley said as re-
Gently as last Friday that he
would not be involved in an
other deal with the Yankees
the Kansas City owner reversed
himself yesterday and approved
a deal which sent Bud Daley
a lefthanded starting pitcher
to New York for Art Ditmar, 8
righthanded hurler, and Deror

Now there have been II deals
involving 81 players, between
the clubs since 1855. The firm

more effective than righthand-
ers at Yankee Stadium, and last
year Daley had a 1916 record
with the laSt-place Athletics
This year he has 4-8 mark.
The revised rotation of YAM
kee starters includes Daley,
Ford and righthanders Bill
Stafford, Ralph Terry and Ro-

said he felt the Athletics got
the better of the deal. "DitInar

Daley" he saidt johnson is

Ditmar, 80, is four years
older than Daley and will re-

Palmer, the defending cham

to be the most sensible choice.
He has brushed off his col

Lag Puts Needed
Oakland Hills gives up bird

the contestants realize that
when they lose a stroke to par,
it may be gone forever. Shots
into the deeper rough and fair

caution. Gamblers may suffer.

shot and the approach putt,
There are mounds on most of

using for the long putt.

the course is too tight for Jack
because of his tendency to
spray an occasional tee shot,
and too long for Beman.
