Chicago, Dec. —New contracts vor the 1920 season must be proffered | approximately 90 per cent. of the reg- wlar players on majot leakue baseball ciubs, expert followers of the gamc said here today. That condition, with the increased interest displayed in the national pastime they say probably will result in a numb of players fol- lowing Babe Ruth, Boston American pitcher and outficlder, in demands for | increased salaries Retrenchments for the period after the war, when the owners expected to be confronted with lessened interest in baseball, led to many one year con- tracts being made. Long time con- tracts for a number of stars terminat- ‘ed with the past season. That the in- terest next vear in baseball s not ex- pected to be lethargic, some of the players who wintered in Chicago say, is evidenced by the owners' plans for extended training seasons and the adeption of the usual 154 game schéd- ule instead of 140 games as last vear. Some of the players are said to hold that with the owners obtaining great putronage larger salaries can be paid. Tew players of the Chicago clubs have been signed as yet. Alexander Killefer and Robertson arc the Na- tlonal league club stars who have made 1920 contracts. Only a few, voungsters have made contracts with the Chicago Americans. Bddie Col- ling' five year contract expired last fall liddie Cicotte’s contract also ended, as did the one year agreement with Ray Schalk. WILLIAMS TO PLAY HARVARD.
