Yankees' Mantle Is Dissatisfied
Returns His Contract Unsigned
By FRED DOWN
(United Press International)
Mickey Mantle the Yankees'
famed long-range bomber fired a
hot potato from Dallas Tex to
New York today — and dropped it
right in the middle of General
Manager George Weiss' lap
"Just say I'm dissatisfied peni
01" growled the 27-year-oh l home
run king after announcing that he
has returned his unsigned con-
tract to the Yankees "You ean
add that I'll never take a pay cut
I'm pianning on a raise"
The size of the pay cut offered
Mantle who earned an estimated
$75000 last season ranged from
a "token cut" of $3000 to a huge
bite of $15000 Weiss did not say
whether Mantle would be offered
a cut in his press conference Toes-
day bat he did say a few of the
world champions would be unpleas-
antly surprise(' when they saw
their contracts
Averages Fall Off
Mantle's average in 1958 fell off
to 304 compared to his 315 of
1957 hut he led the league with 42
homers knocked in 97 runs and
can argue he is the American
Leagues No I drawing card both
at home and on the road
It is still too early to tell vhelli-
er Mantle and Weiss arc about to
carry on one of those old time
disputes in the tradition of Babe
Ruth and Ed narrow but it is
possible that they are as much as
$27000 apart at present Until re-
cently it was believed Mantle was
hoping for a $15000 raise to $90-
000
The Yankees are used to trou-
ble in signing their high pried
perennial champions but they
haven't had a real "page oner"
since 1937 when Joe DiMaggio held
out until t h e closing weeks of
spring training
From a tactical point of view
offering Mantle a slice is a double-edged
sword The Yankees ob-
viously would gain the upper hand
with evoy oler player on the ?tub
If they can get Mickey to agree
to a 411t On the other hand it
Is unlikely that many other Yan
kee stint will come to terms until
they have a fair idea how Man-
tle fared
Yanks Purchase Richmond
The Yankees meanwhile an-
nounced that they have purchased
the stock of the Richmond Vir-
ginians in the International
League and said they have taken
over rperation of the club "in its
entirety" It marks the first time
the Yankees have owned a triple
