It seems fair for Morgan, . .

What is wrong or unfavorable to that pefsonU value to the organization? , 1 -i, , i - Anyway, much has been said and written about the income of athletes in many sports. But, since the baseball free agent ex travaganza this year, baseball players and their salaries seehiinglyi ire being scrutinized more. Very often, sports stories involvings Jleggie Jackson include reference to his salary. An anxious environment was created just before this baseball season by Some sportswriters anticipating and highlighting an adverse re action from Thurman Munson, because his new teammate, Jack Son, reportedly signed for a more lucrative contract. Joe Morean signed big, and Pete Rose demanded and received big money; ft.wuwwiuwuIKiiewiuiiin , r, , ; ;One can only'wonder how much agitation such salary oriented news causes between the sportswriters and athletes, between theathletes and fans, and between the athletes and their teammates and coaches. Even though the salaries of per . sons in government, business, movies and other fields are avafl- able for public knowledge, very seldom do writers covering those fields refer or compare incomes in the same manner a! some sportswriters are doing now . , It has been said that some athletes for commanding so much money. The fans don't seem to be so envious. They .continue to go and pay to. see the athlete's entertain. The owners would not pay such salaries without expecting or insuring a good monetary return for them selves. If a sports writer could attract the attention of thou sands to pay $1.50 to $5 XX) for every article he or she wrote, then he or she would probably command compensation com parable to some highly paid athletes.
