By DAVIS .1. WAI.SH. KARWATKR, Fla., March 13, — The salary roll of the Brooklyn Nation al league club for 1925 exceeds $200, aoo, it was de clared today by a close friend of Charley Khbetts, {■resident and ma jority stockhold er of the club, six of the squire's employes, exclus ive of Manager Wilbert Robinson, will receive in ex cess of $7,000 per annum, tills friend of Kbbets' said. The favored sextet, it is understood, consitds of "D.izzy" Yanre, the league's leading pitcher; Burleigh Grimes, human salivary gland; Jack Fournier, first baseman; Zaeh Wheat, star out fielder; Milton Stock, who may or may not make the grade at third base, and Jimmy Johnston. Vance has been offered a three year contract for $47,500 and In tiniatrs lie might accept same if the squire will strike out the ill-day clause. It doesn't seem to have oc curred to "Dazzy" that he might do well to sign with all haste be fore the squire thinks better of It. (■rimes, they say, lias been ten dered a two-year contract of $11,000. lie wants $15,000 or so, it is al leged. lie, too, seems (o have for gotten Mr. Kbbets' notable lack of carelessness in money matters. Fournier is said lo have uncovered a system whereby he can ekp nut an existence on a two-year contract, signed in 1024, and calling for an advance of $4,000. These are* boxcar numbers of purest ray serene, but no one appears to be concerned about It. One and severally, even down—or up, as the tase may be—to Robbie himself, they declare it will all come back to Its natural home In Mr. Kbbets' pocket when the Dodgers win the 1925 pen nant. Yes, the Dodgers have the pennant lice,. They clttfm they will either win or the duh that does will think it is being chased liy Nurmi. It is their idea that a team which almost won last year In the stretch after breaking up its infield In mfdieason should crime home on the bit with the caste intact over a full season. They think so well of themselves, in fart, that they have made few changes, except to acquire "Cotton” Tierney front Boston, and permit the Washington Senators to take title to "Dutch" Reuther. At present the Infield Is lining up ps it finished the 1324 season, to-wlt: Fournier, first base; High, second base; Mitchell, shortsop, and Stock, third base. It Ihe latter doesn't bit be will he replaced without ceremony by Tier ney, who is being made over into a third baseman. Johnston is play ing shortstop on tlie second team so that he ran lie moved into John ny Mitchell's shoes in rase Johnny dors a Hop, as more or less antici pated. Wheat will adorn left Held, Ed Brown will play centerfleki, porce lain arm anil all, and In right Held it ds altogether likely (lie veteran, Tom GrlHitli, will lie crowded to the wall by Dick Cox. The latter hit 25 home runs for Portland last year and looks the part of a real hall player. The regular catchers will he De Berry and Taylor, as of yore. In addition to Vance and Grimes, the pttehers will lie; Rube Ehrhardt, one of thp National league's 1324 sen sHtions; Dutch Henry and Nelson Green, lefthanders, with the club last year; Timmy Osborne, ex-Cub, and John Hollingsworth, who once got a trial with the Senators; Guy Cantrell, from Muskogee, Jim Roberts, from Little Rock, and "Lefty" Schwartz, a semi-pro, are around, but It is un ilerstbod that Robbie plans to correct that featore of the situation In due time. Tommy Gibbons Believes Dempsey Will Defend Title on WW Coast V. FAIT.. Minn., March IS.—The next bout for the heavy weight box ing championship of the world will l>e held on the Pacific roast if Jack Uemp s e >k , tltleholder. plays the leading role, In the opinion of Tommy Gib hone, St. Paul as plrant for heavy weight honors, who resumed training today after a two weeks’ layoff.

HREE major topics will come be fore the football rules committee at Its annual meeting in New York today and Saturday. The for ward pass and the open game in general most likely will remain un touched after having heeh approved by the coaches and officials at their meeting. However, the kick-off will return to the 40-yard line of the kicking side and the tee will be returned to the game as It Is almost unanimous opinion that many stirring plays were eliminated when balls were booted across opposing lines for touchhacks. The first dowm, after penalty is another rule which' has been found unnecessary.
