Just b e f o r e C h ristm a s, g o ve r n m e n t officials, m a k in g their long a n d losing fight a g a in s t inflation, w e re forced lo an ­ nounce t h a t the cost of living in this co u n try had clim bed to y e t a n ­ o th e r high, NdPer befo re in the hisC a lv in Griffith tory of the world had a people paid such high p rices for the v e r y n eces­ sities of life.

It is only logical and reaso n ab le lo ex p ect th a t this rising tr e n d will h av e to m a k e itself felt in m a jo r league baseball p la y e r s ’ s a la rie s .

However, p a r t of the im p etu s to a n o th e r set of rec o rd s in m a j o r league o u tlay in 1960 com es f r o m som e so u rces and factors which h a v e only a seco n d ary relationship to the n a ­ tional economy.

It is ce rtain th a t boxausc of the m ultiple factors involved, so m e of them unprecedented in baseball, p lay ­ e r s ’ pay will ju m p incredibly in I960. hi .'959, the Y ankees paid o u t about $700,OJO lo th eir players, w ith Mickey M a n tle ’s ^78,000 topping the list.

All Salaries Soar T im e w as when the N ew Y o rk club had a c le a r lead, y e a r a f t e r y ear, in s a l a r y outlays. But now a club with a $600,000 payroll is not unusual, It is e stim ated th a t the p ay io lU of the sixteen m a jo r clubs in this new y e a r will com e close to the $ 10.000.000 level, W here will this slop? N obody p r e ­ ten d s to know, G eorge M. Weiss of the Y ankees says th a t the s a l a r y in­ dex has risen f a r beyond th e point a t which it would be to le ra te d by sound businessm en. But h e a d m its th a t even when baseball a c q u ire s -a h a rd h ea d ed , sound m a n of business, he so'ftens when c o n tra c t tim e rolls a ro u n d and his sentiment.s as a fan ove rc o m e his feeling a s a c o m m e rc ia l o p e ra to r. ’‘I'lierc isn’t an o th er e n te r p r is e in th ese United Stales which, recogn>>c(4 as a business, is so oblivious of the . principles of safe financial o p e ra tio n as is b a se b a ll,” Weiss told T h e S pokt iKG N e w s .

Yet. while arguing for w h a t h a ' calls a s a n e r basis of doing business, Weiss a d m its th a t the m a j o r s d o not h a v e enough $ 100,000 s a la rie s am ong the players. “ We a r c not opposed to paying a m a n $100,000 a season, a s we did to J o e DiMaggio, ju st so long a s he is a $100,000 p la y e r in skills and in p o p u la r a p p e a l,” G eorge explained.

This s e e m e d the la*! thing the f r e e -s p e n d in g Badger® would sponsor.

F re s co T hompson, <irioe-president of Hie Dodger® in c h a r g e of m i n o r league operation® fo r the 8Lo» Ang e le s club, stated: “ Tin® rule is good for fcasebal?, a n d anything good for baseball i® good for the E g® A ngeles It ad g ersv® “ Who’s Ii® K i d d i n g ? * M ore mixed reaction. ?t r a n g e d from, “ Who’s lie k i d d i n g ? ” to “ Maybe he’s got s o m e t h i n g . ” At a n y rate, the a m e n d m e n t to the first-yea r p l a y e r d r a f t t u l e wa® passed by tooth the minor® a n d m a ­ jors.

But, for the skeptic®, ?iere’« a n announcement which m a y c a u s * considerably m o r e a m a z e m e n t —o r p e r h a p s confusion.

F . J . (Buzzie) B avasi, «rioc-president and g e n er al m a n a g e r « f the Dodgers, is talking: “ We haveo ju st c o m p l e t e d a pol­ icy staff meeting. T h r e e m e n w e r e involved—F res co , Al C a m p a n i a and myself. H er e a r e the results of o u r discussions: 0 “ The r u b b e r b an d is still loose on the Dodgers* b a n k r o l l insofa r a s scouting is concern ed.

T he less v e n t u r e s o m e clubs which a re not as a c ti v e in the scouting field will h a v e s e c o n d choice.”

Experts Viewed All Angles in Naming Unitas Top Pro ^CONTINUED FROM P A C E I) 'Rookie o f the Year. The ex p erts w ere to la k e in all a sp ects of the g a m e in n a m in g those they con sidered to •fee the outstanding m en in e a c h d e ­ partm ent.

E ach writer turned in first, second and third-place ch o ices in each ca teg ory. A first-piace v ote counted five points. Fou r points w ere aw ard ed for second and three points for third.

This m ethod of selection is sim ilar 1(» (hat used by the B aseball Writers' Association of A m erica in votin g the M ost V aluable P la y e r s o f the m ajors.

The selection of Unitas is proof that the board view ed the over-all picture in castin g its ballots, for had the m e m b e r s been influenced ch iefly by g iou n d'gain ing ability, J i m m y Brown would have won the award again by virtue of his league-leading total of 1.329 y a rd s gained. Instead, the bril­ liance o f U n ita s’ passin g, running, field generalship and his inspiration­ al-type play c a u s e d the selection board to n a m e him P l a y e r of the Y ear o v e r his appro.ximaleJy 400 c o m ­ petitors.

Muff Third on Listing Proof that the ex p erts did not c o n ­ centrate on the offense alone w a s indicaled by the high rating L ineback­ er Sam Huff received.

Unitas w as first c h o ic e by nine of the dozen m e m b ers of the board.

Tho others named him secon d . Only one. 11ugli Brown of the Philadelphia Bulletin, understandably failed to list him on his ballot. B row n c o v e r s the Philadelphia E a g le s and this y e a r tho E a g le s fortunately w e re not s c h e d ­ uled to tangle with Unitas* Colts in l e a g u e cotnpetition. A s a result, Brown didn’t get to s e e Unitas. Of tliose Brown did o b serv e personally' he rated Bobby Layne lops. T o m m y McDonald, the p ass receiver, who w a s a big man in the E a g l e s ’ c o m e b a c k , w a s hi.s choice for second and he listed .Ion Arnett, the Los A n geles Karns’ fine runner, a s third.

Vince Lombardi, the G reen Bay Packers* coach, approved the judginem of the panel by telling the Milv-aul;ee Journal's Johnson. “ G i v e Unitr^s to any other team in thp league and ii. probably would win tile divisi(m title.

King Makes How llo rn iin g f o r (!oiuo1>ack o f Green Bar 4

ST. LOUIS, Mo. — Had there been a “ C om eback P la y e r o f the Y e a r ” award g iv e n in the N ational Football League, it is con ceiva b le that Paul Hornung. star back of the Green Bay P a c k e rs, would h a v e won it.

As it w a s he received a firstplace vote from Joe King, aslui'e pro football w riter for the N ew York World-Tclcgram and Sun. in the balloting for T h e S p o u t i n g NEWS-Marlboro P l a y e r of the Y e a r award, won by John Unitas of the B a ltim ore Coils. King w as one of* the J2 ex p erts on T h e S p o r t i n g N e w s selection board.

Although no justification w as needed by King for giving his five points to Hornung, he did so with this c o m p lim e n t lo the ex-N otre D a m e ace: “ I picked Hornung b e ca u se he is the hero of the m o s t . d ra m a tic story of the- s e a s o n — the co m e b a c k o f the Green Bay P a c k e r s from their 1-10-1 record in 1958 to their 7-.5 record this year.

Hornung. in addition to leading the P a c k e r s ’ c om eb a ck , made*a persona! conudiack of c o n ­ sid era b le deg ree. “ One o f (he hardest workers in the N FL. he led the leagu e in scorin g and w as eiglul'. in rush­ ing on a team in winch he w as a m arked m an. lf tho other clubs slop ped him, they stopped the P a c k e rs. “ Me didn’t work ijehind a pro­ tective pocket of five or six b eh e­ m oth s a s U nitas did.

All in all, he did an am azing jo b .”

“ Fine in '59 . . . but e v e n m ore nifty in 'CO.’' That's the forecast for F u ll­ b ack Nick P ietro sa n lc of the D e ­ troit Lions who stepped from the U niversity of Notre D a m e in­ to pro ranks with such distinc­ tion that he w a s voted R ookie of the Y ea r b y T h e S p o r t i n g N e w s .

Used primarily as a blocker in Coacli G eorge Wil­ so n ’s eystem , he still a vera ged 5.9 yard s e v e r y time he carried the ball.

In addition, he caught IC p a s s e s for 1*10 y ard s while rushing for 4-17 on 76 cnrries and scoring three touchdowns.

T h is is o v e r 200 yards m ore than anv other p a sse r.

Most of the p a ssers, in fact, fell below the 2.000 figure.

R ival p la y ers t o l d this writer, “ U nitas s e e m s lo have e y e s in the back of his liead.” One pointed out, “ Just when you think you h a v e him, ho g e t s the p ass a w a y for » c o m p le ­ tio n .”

Another said. “ H e ’.s sm art.

He can lak e off and carry the ball to keep the d e fe n se h o n est.” A tliird said, ” The g u y 's so d— cool. I'm a lw a y s surprised m y fingers d o n ’t freeze w h en f touch h im .”

For Unitas, w inning T h e S p o u t i n g NEWS-Marlboro award is the cro w n ­ ing a c h ie v e m e n t of a car eey which b e ­ g a n with ■o b s ta c le s and disap p oin t­ m e n ts and now is boing sh ow ered with self-m a d e s u c c e s s .
