"Everybody Says
Bonuses Are Bad’
Crume Cracks King-Sized Oyster Shell
By The Associated Press
Texas is a king-sized oyster and
the shell cracks easily under Paul
Grume’s skillful probing.
And crack the shell he has in his
“A Texan at Bay”- published by
McGraw-Hill and just recently on
the bookstore shelves.
Crume, columnist for the Dallas
Morning News, has opened a Texas
shell of memories to.dig at some
choice tidbits of his early days in
West Texas, chides sometimes not
so gently at the good old days and
modern Texas, pokes fun at his
own newspaper profession and
talks with nostalgia about the de
mise of the windmill.
The rodeo — for instance — is
not all the glamor it has been pro
claimed. Crume contends it came
“from the boredom of Texas cow-
country Sunday afternoons” and
despite the common belief is “no
more Mexican than chop suey is
Chinese. It is no more Mexican
than Texas chili, that highly-flav
ored meat soup which developed in
the greasy - spoon restaurants of
Texas.” /
In his slightly sardonic and oft
en irreverent approach to Texas,
Crume has come up with a suc
cessful product. “A Texan At Bay”
is enjoying good sales even if he

does contend that a lot of Texas
fortunes start with a little skill
with dice and that the true Texan
always understates thfhgs. If you
don’t believe it, “take a look at the
figure he gave for his income on
his last return,” he says.
Grume’s book has received en
thusiastic reviews in newspapers
over the state. Out in the South
Plains country — an area about
which Crume writes so expertly—
Jack Sheridan of the Lubbock
Avalanche-Journal said he “got
hysterical” over “A Texan at Bay.”
“You don’t have to he a Texan
to appreciate it,” Sheridan added
in his review. “It’s a pretty good
bet there’s a belt of laughter al
ready building from coast to
coast.”
By HAROLD V. RATLIFF
Associated Press Sports Writer
The major leagues are paying
out bonuses due to total $9,000,-
000 for high school boys and col
legians and everybody in baseball
says it’s bad and ought to be
stopped.
That’s the way it is every year
but nobody does anything about
stopping it. Baseball is like that.
The majors virtually ruined the
minor leagues with their television
and said they sure hated to see the
minors fade out. Because then
they wouldn’t be able to get de
veloped players. But they were
getting millions of dollars for the
broadcasts, so they just went right
on doing them.
Few minor leagues are left and
those that are functioning are los
ing money. The Texas League
made two shifts with half the sea
son not finished in order to stay
afloat.
The baseball men say it’s bad to
pay a high school boy, who isn’t
likely to be able to stick in even
the high minors, $100,000 bonus.
It’s costing a lot of money and the
results are poor.
On the part of professional base
ball it is a bad practice. However,
based on the way baseball oper
ates, it is no more than just. Base
ball ’signs boys just out of high
school and boys who are only fresh
men in college. Those boys are
giving up an education for base
ball and they deserve to be paid a
sum that a college education would
be worth. It is only reasonable to
believe that an education would be
worth $100,000.
t
If baseball had the same rules
as pi-o football there would be none
of the gigantic bonuses. Pro foot
ball will not sign a boy until his
class has graduated in college,
then it’s by draft.
Pro baseball, however, refuses
to follow such a line. Under its
rules a high school boy can’t be
signed until he has finished his
eligibility but the collegians are
free game for the pro baseball
scouts. The only stipulation is that
a collegian won’t be signed during
the current college year, unless
he’s over 21 years of age. Then he
can be signed anytime.
Actually, baseball is pretty strict
regarding high school boys, which
is commendable. A boy still in
high school can not be signed un
less his high school eligibility has
expired. Even then he is not obli
gated to report for baseball serv
ice until the class with which he
originally entered high school has
graduated (in other words, eight
semesters after his original entry
in the ninth grade).
A student who drops out of high
school prior to expiration of his
athletic eligibility and continues
to remain out for at least one year
may be signed to a contract but if
any baseball man is found to have
influenced such withdrawal that
man is penalized.
Pro Scouts can talk to high
school students about baseball con
tracts at any time and they can
conduct tryouts during the summer
vacation. But during the school
year the school officials must
agree to it for the boys to be giv
en tryouts.
Pro baseball can not pay the
boy anything in the tryout camp.
It can’t even pay his travel ex
pense or enter into an agreement
with him for future services. Of
course, proving that the expenses
were paid or if the boy reached an
agreement on a contract would be
quite difficult.
