STARTS TALK
Former Seal Star Refuses to
Discuss Matter Until
Contract Signed
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 8 Willi;
Kanim's sal. ry with the White S >\ I
during the 1923 season will soon be
the topic of discussions with local I
baseball fane
How much giniouiu u 2100,000 ball i
player get? What will the White
Sox offer him? And what if lie
should hold out? Do you think Char-1
ley Comliskey, Sax owner, would use
the same methods on Kamm as he
did on Dick Kerr, diminutive south
l*w, and regarded as one of th
host pitchers in the game?
Wiltio can an .vcr all lese ques- i
ttons, but he doesn’t care to discuss
his contract until he first hears what
the iSox have to offer
“How much do you expect to get?"
Willie was asked.
Willie Doesn't Know
"Don't even know what the Sox
Intend to offer me," answered Willie.
"Before 1 make any demands I'm
first going 'to find out what they're
willing to give me."
Dannv Dong. Comiske.v scout, and i
the man 'responsible for Kanim's pur (
chase from the Seals, recently ro-|
marked that if a youngster" Ilk ■
Willie was offered $7,500 a season I:;
would be big money. That is look I
upon as the tip off to Comiskey'.s!
offer.
Local baseball enthusiasts differ!
wit.li Dong. They believe if Kamm!
signs for less than $10,000 per sea
son he’ll be making a serious mis 1
take.
"Any fellow who is worth $100,000
should he deserving ol' $10,000 a:
year," they argue.
Compare Salaries
One way of basing Kanim's worth
Is to compare the salary he received
from the Seals, a minor league club,
good authority that Willie received
$1,000 per month following his sale
to the Sox. Prior to his sale he
was supposed to be getting $500 per
month.
Minor league ball players going to
the big leagues are generally given
a 25 r-ef cent Increase. Kamm s case,
however, is an exceptional one. He
broke all records iiu sale prices for
minor leagues; he set up the most
enviable fielding, batting and base
running record for an infielder and
ds entitled to whatever he can get.
Seals Not Worried
Under the terms of Kamm’s sale
the Seals do not have to worry
whether he ever signs a contract.
They were through the day he w.t
sold. So if any trouble arises which
might rob the Sox of Kamm’s s >
t ices lit will not cost the local club
a penny.
Those w.ho know Charley Comfs
ley hardly believe he will raise
fuss over Kamm's salary. Yol it j
r rat ge why he allowed Dick Kerr,
southpaw pitcher, to quit baseball,
v.hen it was only a matter of a f
hundred dollars. They use this -1ory
ta show that Com is key will -o so
far and n> farther. Kerr, in hi- va-.
it: as greet a star as Karon.
In the year. Kamm has been with
tie Seals ,he has been an e.isv man
tc talk business with. T:p j-il
1 osoes say he is sensible, at tvs
«i;at he wants and lias a way a’l
hir own of getting it.
