[Winfield. Foundation sues Stein brenner

1

I

NEW YORK (AP) - A foundation established by New
York Yankee star Dave Winfield filed suit yesterday
charging that George M. Steinbrenner III, owner of the
Yankees, has reneged on a pledge of $3 million in
donations in equal installments over 10 years.
The complaint was filed in U.S. District Court in
Manhattan by the David M. Winfield Foundation, which
the left fielder founded to foster health and fitness in
children.-
IT SAID Steinbrenner had provided only $155,000 in the
first year, J981. Winfield's lawyer, Lawrence S. Blum-
berg, said there has been no money contributed yet this
year.
Steinbrenner was out of town, but Irv Kaze, a
Yankees' spokesman, said he expected the owner to
issue a statement later in the day.
The deal between Steinbrenner and the foundation was
worked out in negotiations during Steinbrenner's efforts
to sign Winfield after the 1980 season.
WINFIELD WAS THE most coveted player inthe 1980

free-agent crop when he left the San Diego Padres of the
National League.
The agreement relating to Winfield's charitable foun-
dation was signed Dec. 14, 1980, and specified that Stein-
brenner would see the foundation got $3 million at a rate
of $300,000 annually, the suit said.
Winfield signed a 10-year contract with the Yankees
the following day. With cost-of-living escalators, he
could be paid as much as $23 million.
THE FOUNDATION, based in Fort Lee, N.J., seeks
court judgments that would compel Steinbrenner to turn
over $145,000 to meet his alleged commitment for
donations in the first year and an additional $2.7 million
to cover the remaining nine years.
Blumberg said the under the agreement, donations
could come either from Steinbrenner directly or from
other sources that made donations at his behest.
The $155,000 contributed so far came from WPIX, the
station that televises Yankees games, and from
proceeds of the annual Yankee homecoming dinner,
Blumberg said.
