Made pile of money in the off-season,
too, something like double his baseball
salary.
To some ball players success is more
difficult to handle than the bottle is for
the alcoholic. Larsen's fame was fleeting.
He never has won more than 10 games in
a season since the perfect performance
The Yankees decided in SO that Don wasn't
worth the headaches his extra -curricular
activities entailed. They traded him.
ONE OF THE PLAYERS who came to
the Yankees in the deal with Kansas City
(seven players, including Larsen, were in
volyed) was Roger Maris. Here is another
case of an overnight celebrity who found
success formidable obstacle.
In his first season with the Yankees
C60) Maris was normal harmonious per-
former. Casey stengel, who was managing,
called Rog "the best Yankee rightfielder
: since Ruth" He hit .2ss and was voted the
American Leagues most valuable player.
Last year Maris hit those 81 home runs
and won the Ford Frick asterisk. However,
his batting average slumped to .26s, but
the big drop-off was in his public relations
Fame and success touched Maris differently
than it touched Belinsky, Larsen and others
While never happy-go-lucky guy, Maris
now forgot how to smile at all He became
churlish, petulant; recluse.
The more money he earned and the
more attention he attracted the more unap-
proachable Maris became He alienated 9
segment of the New York press that had
sung his praises. When he steps to the
plate in Yankee Stadium today the fans

Gains Shown
By Universal
Marion Corp.

Area stockholders of Uni
versal Marion Crp., the former
Capital Transit Co., will be
cheered that earnings for the
first two months of this year
improved from a year earlier
after tagging in 1861.
At the annual meeting in
Jacksonville, Fla, yesterday,
President James Mullaney said
net income after taxes was
S285, 900 or II cents a common
share in the same 1861 period.
Actually pre- tax earnings
were more than double a year
ago, but the company started
1862 on a fully taxable basis,
with taxes amounting to $780,
900, he added. In the 1861
period no Federal taxes were
necessary because of a tax-loSs
carryover, which was absorbed
by company earnings late in
1861.
Mr.. Mullaney said sales for
two months rose to $50 million
from S7,175.000 in the same
period last year. The backlog
of untitled orders approximated
$50 million on February %,
compared with S19.5 million a
year earlier, he declared.
Mr.. Mullaney said that while
it is impossible to make an
estimate of the full years
earnings on the basis of results
for the first two months" he
believes 1852 will be a good
year for the corporation, both
in sales and net earnings"
The 1861 annual report
issued recently showed drop
in profit to $1,875,6 ,648 or 7S
cents a common share from
$4,628, ,302 or $2.04 a share in
the previous year. Sales de-
clined to $49.472,016 from $751;
944,142.
At the annual meeting, stock
holders reelected directors of
the company and Price Water
house & Co. as auditors. Di-
Irectors are: E. B. Gerbert, Mr..
Mullaney, Thomas w. Pettus,
Arvin K. RothSchild and Ben

stockholders we're told at the
annual meeting in Winchester,

Board Chairman j. c. H.
Bryant said the first quarter

couraging indication of a sound
recovery from the decline in
sales and profits experienced
by the company in 1861"
The quarters sales were up
25 per cent from a year ago
and while profit figures are not
complete, data for two months
indicate a very substantial gain,
he said.

and competition are shaving
profit margins uncomfortably
Thin for companies to attract
new capital and maintain their
competitive position.
1t has been generally as
sumed that political pressure
would prevent many companies
from increasing prices to re-
establish proper profit margins.
The upSurge in stock prices
soday after announcement of
Big Steel's decision to raise
prices was a good measure of
the relief and pleased surprise
with which the news was
greeted by investors and Securi-
ties firms.
Prompt action of Bethlehem
Steel and Jones g. Laughlin in
the same direction and an
nouncementS from companies
in other fields showed the gen.
eral concern over The profits
, pinch.
The steel companies advanced
prices reluctantly with the full
knowledge that they laid them
selves open to political re-
priSals. President Leslie B.
Worthington of United States
Steel phrased it this way:
If the products of United
States Steel are to compete
successfully in the market
place, then the plants and
facilities which make those
products must be as modern
. and efficient as the low-cost
mills which abound abroad and
as the plants which turn out
competing products here at
nome.
"Only by generating the
g funds necessary to keep these
facilities fully competitive can
our company continue to pro-
vide its customers with a de-
pendable source of steel. and to
provide its employees with de-
pendable jobs. But the profits
of the company-Squeezed as
they have been between rising
costs and declining prices-are
inadequate today to perform
this vital function"
He pointed out that in the
last three years. the company's
profits have dropped to the
lowest levels since 1852, while
reinvested profits plowed back
in the business have declined
from Sis million in 1858 to
less than SO million last year.
and the dividend rate has not
been increased in more than
five years. although there have
been seven general increases in
employment costs during that
interval, he added.
