The owners agreed to put $5,- 450,000 annually into the players' WHAT YOU HAVE JUST READ is not universally known as the pension fund and to lower eligi- bility from five years playing time to four years, Under the old agreement, the owners put $4.1 million into the plan in 1967 and 1968. The players originally had ask- ed for a $6.5 million package but then pared this down to $5.9 mil- lion. Under the new pact, retired benefits at age 50 will be in- creased from $50a month to $60 a month for each of the first 10 years of major league service with early retirement permitted at age 45. Although the baseball pension plan looks alluring to an outsider, Miller, the players' spokesman, says that 59 per cent of major league players today will not re- main in the big leagues long enough to qualify for it. Just how alluring it is can be seen from the fact that a 20- year player who waits until 65 would get $1,487.50 a month. The catch is that aside from Stan Musial, 20-year players are almost non existent. Mickey Man- tle is only an 18 year veteran. The players look on their pen- sion as deferred pay, since they are boxed in on personal negotia- tions by the reservesclause. Under this a player can only negotiate with the team that originally sign- ed him. Or the team to which his contract is sold. Miller had stated that the play- ers may next attack the reserve clause in the courts. Miller termed the pension nego- tiations "vary difficult"and own- ers' representative John Gaherin, when asked what was the main stumbling block, snapped back "Money. First, last and always, money, the source of all evil." Bowie Kuhn, baseball's n e w commissioner, said that the "set- tlement, is of course, still subject to the ratification by the players and the owners."~ "I am immensely pleased with the settlement which I feel is fair to the players and the clubs alike. "I urge the players and the Ten Commandments, but it is broken just as much. The fans ofI the Fighting Illini demonstrated this beyond a doubt last Saturday asl they put on the most disgusting exhibition of crowd behavior that I have ever seen. The Illinois supporters made a concerted effort to break every one of the ten points within the first three minutes of the contest and they succeeded admirably. I imagine talent like that comes from a great deal of practice, though. When the Michigan players were introduced before the game, they were greeted with a solid chorus of 16,128 people booing. It was so intense that people listening on radio could not hear the intro- ductions. But that was just the tame stuff. The fans didn't really get intoj form until the game started. At that point every referee's call was soundly cheered or booed, depending on which way it went. And Mich- igan players were not even accorded the respect that is due for ac- complished athletes.
