Golf compares favorably with football for the few who must work over 200 days a year to top $20,-00The average pro golfer on tour doesnt make $5,000. Club golfers who are also , instructors can do much better. Ballplayers also last longer than football players, although such veterans as Sammy Baugh, Sid Luck-maBulldog Turner and Mel Hein can hang around for better than 10 or 12 years. They are the unbreakables. Joe Louis can pick up more money in one fight than any baseball or football player can earn in a tt big part of his career. The outdoor jamboree should play to at least a million-dolla- r gate. It will be an interesting fight along physical and psychological lines. Louis gets 40 per cent of the take. This means around $400,000, from which his manager takes his cut, whatever it is. In any event, at least $250,000 comes to Louis. The only kink here is that your Uncle Sam, losing no time at ail, lops off around 75 or 80 per cent.

Some r say that Camera will collect around $250,000 for a year activity. This may be too high. But wrestlers do better than many people know about. It might be remembered that a wrestler can operate five nights a week in a rush period. Boxing champions must settle for two or three performances a year. Jimmy Londos told me once that he made as much as $20,000 a week. Londos was then an Incredible operator, also a very highly intelligent human being. The only true answer to this salary matter In sport must take in the highest number who average the best pay over the years. My answer here would be baseball, where so many thousands are Involved in so many leagues. There may not be so many Ruths, Fellers, DiMaggios or WilGreenbergs, are more than 400 there but liams, big leaguers who can knock off from a higher average $7,500 to $15,000 for a greater number. Pro football can almost match this payroll with the two leagues reaching for a rival windpipe. The football players get all the money, and It will be this way until two strong leagues can play at peace. Which reminds us, we almost forgot the Jockeys. How about Eddie Arcaro, Johnny Longden and a few more? All they have is around a million dollars each.

Widowed Mother In Cap arid Gown ITHACA, N. Y. When the library tower chimes at Cornell university peeled forth their congratulations to mid-yea- r graduates, Jonathan Hartwell Harwood HI, aged 4, near burst with pride. Among the young women In academic robes was his mother, Virginia Oake Harwood. Few fellows have the privilege of seeing their mothers graduate from college. Jonny doesnt know it, but he was the chief reason why his mother finished her course in the college of home economics. Jonnys father fought in the invasion of Normandy, June 6, 1944; and he never came back. Jonnys dad graduated from Cornell, too in 1942. And his mother, whose parents live in Lockport, N. Y., left school in her sophomore year to marry him. They didnt have much time together just a couple of summers while dad was training at Fort Bragg. Then he was sent to England to tram as a Ranger and was made a captain. . . . Then came People thought I was crazy when I decided to take my son to Ithaca with me in the fall of 1945 and continue college, Mrs. Harwood admits. Maybe I was a little crazy. But I had to have something to do something to occupy my time and my mind. I ould be a better mother to Jonny, I felt, if I graduated from college and was prepared to earn my living. The pension and ffisurance money made it possible for them to rent a small Ithaca apartment and live in modest comfort And Jonny went to Cornell, too. Jonny attended the colleges nursery school. He also will be graduated this year from nursery school to kindergarten. USED CARS FRUIT A NUT TRFF8 Western grown Peaches, Apples tears, Prunes, What about the pro golfers?

There are not many ballplayers paid the same as Bob Feller, Ted Williams and Joe Di Maggio. But also there are not so many football players paid on a level with Lujack, TrippI and a few more. Even as it is, pro football can make very little money with Its brief season thrown against modern expenses even the winning teams. The others can drop enough doubloons to founder a Spanish galleon. On a general average, baseball and football pay close to the same amounts, with baseball in front.
