Final « Players’ and sion Made After Percentage Is Set Aside Club Owners’ Pool; Teams Finishing Second and Third in Money : ; (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-Division of the thousands of dollars paid by baseball fans to witn ess the world’s series games is annually the topic of curious interest as is the division of any large sum of money. The regulations under which the money of the world’s serics\is at present divided has become so in- volved that the average fan ha while the gamés are being played, just how much the winning and losing teams will receive. And it is no easy task to arrive at’ this conclusion be- cause the money is divided in severai different ways. The ptincinal interest of the baseball fans centers in the amount the play- ers who take part in the big games ‘will receive, The first provision in the cutting of the big baseball “melon” is that ten per cent of the gross receipts of all games goes to the National commis- sion. Next comes the players’ pool, which consists of 60 per cent of the balance (after the ‘commission’s 10 per cent has been taken out) of the re- ceipts of the first five games. Tho other 40 per cent of this balance. gocs into the pool to bé divided equally be- tween the owners. of the clubs. Then if more than five. games ‘be aecessary to decide the championship, the receipts of those games are di- vided, 10 per cent to the National com- mission and the other 90 per cent to hee club owners’ pool. = here are certain regulations for the division of the players’ pool and the club owners’ pool which ate not gen- erally understood and which can be illustrated better by figures than by ‘words. Take for example that $100,000 rep- resented the recefpts of a game. First of all 10 per cent or $10,000 would have ‘to) be get aside for the National comi- mission. That would leave a balance of $90,000. Sixty per cent of this, or $54, 000 would go into the players’ pool’ and the 40 per cent of this balance or $36,- 000 would g6 to the club owners’ pool. This. division would be the same forthe first five games. The money in the players’ pool would be divided as per the example before mentioned, in the following manner: Of the $54,000 mentioned as of a single game, 75 per cent or $40,500 would go to the players participating in the world's. series to be divided on, the ba- sis of 30 per cent to-theWwitmirigttes: other, 25 per -eent would go to a fund to.be divided among the players of the teams of both leagues finishing secon1 and third on the basis of 60 and 40 per cent, or $8,100 for the second place S lost interest in trying to solve, i . | regulations which makes it ‘possible to inerease the amounts for each imdivid- ! ual player taking part in the world's series. Since the ‘regulations provide for a slice of the “melon” gving to the second and third teams, italso has been provided that if these teams engage in any post-season series, 50 per cent of the players’ share of the receipts shall be divided on the basis of 60 per cent to the winner“and 40 per cent to the jloser, and the balanee ‘shall go into the | Dlayers’ pool of the world’s series to he ; divided among the players of the con- | testing teams in thé world’s series and ‘the players of the teams finishing sec- ond and third as explained before. These regulations go not apply to Dost-season series between clubs fimish- jing lower than third place. The owners of clubs taking purt in the world’s series do not-get all the money from the receipts even after | shares of the National commission and the players are deducted: The reguia- ons provide that after these have been subtracted the balance of the gross receipts shall be divided equally ve- tween the two clubs, The club owners, however, are obliged to pay into the treasuries of their respective leagues 50 per cent of their grois receipts up. to seven games and if it be necessary to play ‘the eighth and ninth games, then-75 per cent of the gross receipts recelved by the two clubs under thjs division’ shall be paid into’ the league treasuries. As outlined aboye a game with re- ceipts of $100,000 after five had been played, would give $10,000 to the Na- tional commission and $90,000 to both club owners or $45,000 for each. Uf this $45,000 each club for the sixth and seventh games would be obliged to tura hack $22,500 to their respective leacte treasuries, and if they ‘received a like amount from an eighth or ninth game they each” would have to pay to the league treasurers 75 per cent or $83, 750, leaving $11,250 for each of the ypclubs, and 40_ner.cent to the Josing.team, The} ———_—.—_____ CARD OF THANKS ‘We wish to express our thanks to our many friends and neighbors for the ‘beautiful floral offerings and. the kind sympathy shown us during our recent teams and $5,400 for the third place teams. bereavement.
