Two years ago this time whe still was working in that mine “out in Oklahoma and didn’t even have enough dough to pay his way to our training camp in Phoenix =until we sent it to him. He wouldn’t “believe us at first when we told eshim he'd get $25 a week just to «spend on malted milks and movies while we were in camp. All right, just for the sake of argument we'll say Mickey was worth more to us than the $8,000 “ewe paid him last season. He’s a great young ballplayer all right. Another two-three years and he'll probably be recognized as the best in the game — out there all by himself. That's why we've got to “do some thinking about his future mow and convince him what will be best for him in the long run. We've given him a nice little raise, and he knows he'll keep (ing in on that World Series | vy every year until Cleveland | gets itself a shortstop, which may | be never, He’s got a brilliant} future ahead of him, this boy has, and he shouldn't take a chance of | spoiling it by becoming impatient | and talking in boxcar figures. 1 There's one little angle some | folks seem to think we ought to} ——————______ j the nation’s major college basket- consider.

They're bad enough when “ feel we should make Mickey a! sort of special case and begin paying him what he’s worth right off. In other words, they say what good will it do Mickey if he learns Honest Buddy, owned by the Edward F. Wulf Kennel lasted in a photo finish Wednesday night at the Key West Kennel Club to capture a close win in the feature race of the evening. Resonator, just missed a win when he ran second in the race. The favorite, E. B. Stutz’ Avenger was third. The winner paid $11.60, 3.80 and 3.00. Resonator returned 5.20 and 5.00 and Avenger paid 2:80 to show. The Daily Double last night, Mack Truck and Justain Image, paid 28.40. Tonight the feature race of the evening will put a group of the finest greyhounds at the track in what should be the race of the season to date. At this point, the race shapes up a_duel between Fire Hazard Spittin’ Image, but there is plenty of other talent in ‘the race which could come through with a win. Fire Hazard, owned by Fred Palermo and trained by Joe Far- go, captured both of his chooling races last week in fast time. He was closing ground in the Key West inaugural race when Avenger set a track record last Saturday night. On the other hand, Spittin’ Im- age gained a victory Monday night in the feature and is going to pose a real threat tonight. Bright Idol, owned by: Mrs. 0. Z.

The players’ theme song seems Page$ YHE KEY WEST CITIZEN | JACK K. BURKE Future basketball players for Key West High School showed their | ability last Saturday night in the preliminary game. The score was lop-sided in favor of the 8th crad- ers hut the 7th grade boys saowed plenty of courage. If the boys keep improving like they have, Coach Jones may have many more good seasons. Could be a district winner! It’s readily admitted that all the Yankee empire and the man with the chronic winter headache. “I don’t think there’s an organ- ized holdout campaign or anything like that. Each of these fellows figures he was greatly instru- mental in our success and he wants his reward on the pay check.” The Yankees have signed only two of their regulars for the 1953 season while most other clubs are’ announcing signings in clusters. The Brooklyn Dodgers, the Yan- kees’ victims in the last World Series, for instance, have signed all of their players. The two regulars who have come to terms are catcher Yogi Berra, who autographed a contract for a reported $40,000, a $5,000 raise, and infielder Gil Mc Dou gald, who signed for what’s believed to be around $20,000. Allie (Big Chief) Reynolds, who has had two tremendous years with the world champions, failed to get any satisfaction in his second con- ference with Roy Hamey, assistant general manager, who does the Yankee negotiating. The Oklahoma City right-hander, who had a 20-8 record last season and 17-8 the year before, is said to be demanding at least a $7,000 raise over the $35,000 he collected in 1952. That would be approxi- mately the salary paid Vic Raschi, who also is asking a hike for his 16 pitching victories last season. The Yankees must come to terms with lefty Ed Lopat, a reliable veteran; Whitey Ford, i turning from the ‘service; Kuzava, Tom Morgan and others. Also yet to be dealt with across the, bargaining ‘table are young Mickey Mantle, the 1952 World Series hero, and his outfield mates, Hank Bauer and Gene Woodling; big John Mize, the slugging first baseman; infielders Phil Rizzuto, Billy Martin and others. Reports have the 40-year-old Mize -balking at a 20 per ceut slash in salary. He is insisting on a carbon copy of his last season’s contract, which called for $20,000. “I can’t, for obvious reasons, say what our payroll will be this year,” said Weiss. “But it’s tre- mendous. You can safely say it's the largest we've ever had. A few years ago a congressional committee revealed the Yankees’ payroll as $660,000. It’s known the figure has grown substantially every year since, despite the de- parture of $90,000-a-year Joe Di- Maggio. Manager Casey Stengel signed a contract before he left for Cali- fornia in the fall. He hinted. his salary was “‘close to $100,000.” nations are among the nominees One of them, Payucano, will be flown from Buenos Aires, Argen- tina.
