VACATIONING EDITOR MEETS MANY BIG LEAGUE BALLMEN

Sarasota, Fla. -- (Baseball briefs caught by CRIMSON editor vacationing on salary check.) Dizzy Dean--on train from Bradenton to Jacksonville, restrained by Mrs. Dean but declaring he was worth at least as much as holdout Gehrig and would not sign for under $47,000.

Wes Ferrell--beering in "Manhattan Club", modestly admitting he always pitched enough winning games to get a pennant for any club but seeming to infer that there was distinct lack of talent among some of the other Sox moundsmen.

Jimmy Foxx-showing necessity for much waistline work, alternately golfing and pokering with Ferrells, Waners, etc. at the "Bobby Jones Golf Club"--no statements but many all too censorable exclamations.
