Kuhn declined to reveal the name of the companies or the Orr k purchase price that would satis- GE. fy Bob Short, the current owner of the Senators. But it was Time= learned that the figure would be in the $10 million neighbor- ' is hood. Short originally purchased the Senators for $9.4 million. Kuhn. in an interview with oitar The Associated Press, made his ,. - disclosure about talks with cor- kel, porations interested in purchas- r K ing the Senators while pointing out he would approve such a sale "because in this situation e a corporation would have the needed amount of capital for a successful operation.

'Baseball would prefer to find 1214 South a solution to the Senators' prob- University lem in Washington if possible. OPEN 12:45 "In this situation an orderly development is needed for the team to become competitive - I and a corporation can better develop than an individual on an orderly basis. We have, therefore, encouraged companies ted for on the basis that purchasing the club would be an attractive cor- y Awards porate opportunity' Kuhn said there were three ear! reasons why the Senators would appear to be an attractive op- portunity - it would provide "an invaluable platform for busi- ness," it would put the com- pany "near the seat of govern- ment" and it would make the purchaser "the savior of base- ball for our nation's capital." Kuhn said the discussions had stemmed from his position as a member of the committee se- lected to solvoethehproblems of the Senators. The other members of the committee are Short and American League President Joe Cronin. Kuhn pointed out the commit- tee had talked to the Armory Board that runs Robert F. Ken- nedy Stadium in Washington and the board had indicated it would make lease concessions in the area of r e nt, concessions and advertising in the park. Kuhn said that even with the Armory Board making such concessions Short "seems to think it's doubtful he could op Cohasset Tribe. Delta Sal takes SARATOGA SPRINGS. N.Y. W) -- Louis Lee Haggin 2nd's Cohasset Tribe, a supplementa- ry entry to the $42,500 San- ford Stakrs. scampered to a three-length victory in the fea- ture at Saratoga Race Track yesterday. The dark bay Kentucky-bred 2-year-old colt, piloted by Manuel Yeaza and carrying se- cond high weight of 120 pounds, grabbed the lead at the outset and fought off e a r I y challenges to finish the s i x furlongs in a sparkling 1:10 3-5. Cohasset Tribe, third choic:- with the crowd of 18,693, col- lected $25,500 and paid $9.40, $4.60 and $3.20. Tarboosh, topweighted at 124, returned $3.20 and $2.40 and Buck The Systm, four erate the club because of past debts unpaid. Short had to bor- row money to get started or he would be doing well. "For an operator not in debt the club could be a good invest- ment." Kuhn noted that despite the team's shortcomings average at- tendance for Short's three years. including the 1971 season. would average " more thtan 825.000 a year. Kuhn said he also had been approached by several indivi uals about purchasing the club. but again declined to make the names public. He also did not rule out the possible move of the club to another city. "It's obviously a requirement of keeping the team in Wash- ington that we find a respon. sible operator," Kuhn said. "l a responsible operator weren't there we would be faced with possibly moving the team." wins stakes, liandicap lengths off the pace under 115 pounds, paid $2.80, W. L.
