a a 'AMP pnr ad Pro Grc Franchise Now a Million-Dollar Operation inneapolis Golden Glovers Sponsors of the new professional football franchise in the National league for the Twin Cities are stepping into a $1,000,000 business undertaking when they go into action for the 1961 season. From a small beginning in the 1920s this organization has grown so fast it has become a year-around operation. In visiting with most of the NFL club owners in Miami Beach, we heard a lot of interesting things about the business side of this venture. Czech Six Smooth, Likes It Reckless Oakland Gels Eighth Spot to Fill AFL Loop DALLAS, Texas CP) Open Four-Day Meet Monday By DICK GORDON Sunday Tribune Staff Writer Marsh Ryman knows all ALTHOUGH the Minneap-I We asked one veteran magnate what the overhead of the average team would be each year. i -Just figure on was his answer, "and you'll be pretty close to it." Our interest aroused, we probed for some general estimates on expenditures.

They always are quite evasive when talking money in their own operations, but the following costs can be accepted as reasonably accurate: Players' salaries $350,000. Coaches' salaries $60,000. Office administration $32,000. Training camp $25,000. Scouting $20,000.

Tickets, stationery and other items $15,000. Traveling expense $62,000. Bv DICK CULLUM Sunday Tribune Staff Writer The start Monday of four days of fighting for Minneapolis Golden Glove champion ships at Unity House is only part of the area-wide box- 9- ing activities of the week. Preliminary rounds have alrpadv heen disposed of in Cullum 0l.we eight regions. In four others eliminations will start this week and, in all but the Slayton and Wah- peton regions, finals will be over and upper r.i;awest teams selected by weekend.

Finals are scheduled for Blue Earth Monday, St. Paul and Minneapolis Friday, va dena, Rochester and Hibbing Saturday. Out With Mat Riiles-in With Yern, Kowalski KRUSHER KOWALSKI To face Gagne Thursday The wrestling rules book will be tossed into the ash-can Thursday when Vern Gagne and Stan (Krusher) Kowalski meet in a finish match at Minneapolis armory. Gagne had requested such a match in which there is no time limit and pin falls do not count. A winner is named when his opponent is unable to continue.

Basis for the match started Jan. 19 when Kowalski won a questionable match from Gagne. Vern lost because he couldn't get back in the ring within the required 20 seconds after chasing Tiny Mills down the aisle. Mills, as a spectator, pulled Kowalski onto the ring apron when Gagne was about to apply the clincher. Since that time, Kowalski has been claiming Gagne's heavy-weight title, and Vern has been fuming.

Other bouts Thursday have Hans Schmidt meeting Rip Collins in the semiwindup, Frank Townsend opposing Danny Ferrao, Thor Hagen facing Bill Cole and a midget tag-team ew. it The first bout starts at 8.30 p.m. froB Away Bay ittttr jtTTi ft 4 ft a 1 i JANO STARSI Czech high scorer Wilt Gets 45, But Warriors Bow to Knicks NEW YORK The New York Knicks held off a fourth period rally by Philadelphia for a 115-108 National Basketball association victory Saturday despite 45 points by Wilt Chamberlain. hilooVohio 11011 Now York (1451 ft ta Is Chmbrln 32 I 2 Guarin 7 7 3 31 Gola 5 3 4 13 Naulli II 5 3 27 Sidtborry 10 12 Soeri 3 3 3 9 Hanoi OO10 Garmaktr 3 3 2 1 Ar.iin 5 10 2 70 Tyro 10 0 5 70 lodaoro 7 4 4 11 Polmor 3 2 11 Johntan 15 17 form of 4 0 2 1 lock OOO0 Goo'to 42414 Groboikl 113 3 lukhck 0 0 10 Tatol. 47 21 23 115 Totals 43 24 1 101 hilodotoh.a 31 13 11 37 lot Now York 31 2 30 21115 Dukes' 26 Pace Pistons to Win DETROIT, Mich.

Gopher Runners Defeat Cyclones Minnesota's track team defeated invading Iowa State at the field house here Saturday, distinguishing themselves by winning first place in every event but the mile relay. The score was 74 'J to spearheaded by double wins in the vault and broad imp by Stan Morrow and the mile and half mile by Bill Erickson.

It is likely to be pretty much a new team when the eight winners are declared Friday night. Asa Grigsby, a lightweight, and Jim Shaw, a middleweight, are the most experienced boxers in the field. Grigsby was Upper Midwest champion in 1958 but was eliminated last year. Shaw is defending middleweight champion. There is a possibility, however, that he may weigh in as a welterweight Otherwise, for Minneapolis, this appears to be a building year.

There is some promis ing new talent; mere than ever, in fact, but it is mostly a year or two away from the top tournament level. MUCH OF THIS new talent will be seen in the Class and divisions of the city tournament The novice class this year is perhaps the best in history. One of the strongest Upper Midwest teams this season may come from Hibbing. Entered in the Hibbing tournament Thursday and Satur day are Roger Peck, Upper Midwest heavyweight cham pion in 1958, now a light heavyweight; Lyle Smith, another light heavyweight who was considered the most polished boxer of the 1958 tournament; featherweight Bobby Josephs, former Minneapolis champion; flyweight Pete Parvi, 1959 Hibbing champion; featherweight Dale Snyder, also a former Hib bing champion; Clarence La cina and Pete Kalberg, heavyweight and lightweight champions.

The Go pher assist ant coach, (as well as university ticket manager) took a winter leave of absence a year ago and directed the 1959 United States Nation itt Gordon als to a 4-2 victory over the Czechs in the world tournament at Prague.

"Twelve of last year's squad will be here, I understand," said Ryman who describes the Czechs' play as "more reckless" than the Russians. "They pass almost as well as the Russians," said Ryman, "but they are a little more like Americans in taking chances offensively. They like to skate hard and blaze away at the nets." AFTER losing to the Nationals, the Czechs went out and whipped the favored Canadians to earn third place in the final tourney standings. The two top scorers of the current Czech team are Jano Starsi with 27 goals and Dose Golonka with 22. The latter got one of the two Czech goals against Ry-man's Nats a year ago.

In addition to the Czechs, who were to arrive today, another Olympic entry, the West Germans, will appear at the Minneapolis arena in a game a week from Monday night against the Central league All-Stars. In between, the Gophers take on the University of Michigan in a Western Collegiate association series Friday and Saturday, so Wil liams arena is due for quite a workout this week. And, to add another international touch, the Japanese Olympic hockey team was to practice at Williams arena from 4:30 to 6 p.m. today in preparation for an exhibition game at Green Bay, Wis SO, ALTHOUGH the Winter Olympics are set for Squaw Valley, Calif.

The California city was picked to fill out the fledgling professional football league by the unanimous vote of the seven founding cities, Commissioner Joe Foss announced.

Oakland was selected after five days of meetings during which Atlanta was the first choice. But the votes swung over in favor of Oakland, which plans to use either Candlestick park or Kezar stadium in nearby San Francisco. Placing the last franchise in Oakland means that the American Football league will have competing clubs in four National Football league cities New York, Los Angeles, Dallas and San Francisco.

This will be by far the big gest regional tournament It will attract boxers from North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota where schools, police recreation associations, Legion posts and other groups are turning out well-drilled teams. Most often mentioned boxer from that region is Jimmy Jahner of Hankinson.

His powerful left hook has built up a string of victories. He lecently defeated Rudy Rodriquez, outstanding Min neapolis welterweight Den Mayer, Argusville, N. light heavyweight, is another blaster from that region. THE BLUE EARTH region is building a new team to be picked in the finals Monday. lost experienced boys are Bobby Doyle, grown from flyweight to bantamweight, and rugged John Poupart, a light heavyweight.

Both were popular in the 1959 Upper Midwest tournament. A strong field will start at Slayton Thursday. Included will be Lee Peters, 1959 middleweight champion, Johnny-Kulseth, 1959 featherweight champion now a lightweight, and Jim Nocthe, 1959 bantam champion. In addition, Duane Walth-ers, 1957-58 welterweight champion, is back in competition and so is Bob Kasper, who was 1955 welterweight champion but is now a middleweight. Art Wulf, a light heavyweight runnerup several times, is much improved and should make the team this year.

Stadium rental charge i-rom 10 to 20 per cent. Equipment, league dues.

league percentage $30,000. That totals up to 000, with most teams' ex penses running about the same. Football Income Income varies with each team. The Chicago Cardinals, for example, are way down the list because their attendance never has been too good. However, a team like the Los Angeles Rams will play to more than 1,000,000 paid customers in exhibition and league games.

Detroit probably would be next for its season ticket sales annually run more than 40,000 with average attendance over 50,000. New York, San Francisco, Chicago Bears and Cleveland do exceedingly well at the gate every year. Pro gridders also have two other sources of revenue that net large sums. One is from the six exhibition games played before the season gets under way. Now the minimum guarantee for these affairs such as the Catholic Charities staged here each year is $15,000 per team.

Our guess is that the average is higher where clubs have the privilege of percentage oi the receipts. The "take" from television and radio also varies accord ing to tne size oi tne network. Green Bay, for example, is low on the totem pole with approximately $80,000. Some members get as much as $200,000. However, if the NFL accepts the Columbia Broadcasting system's package deal, there will be $3,200,000 in the pot to be split equally among 13 teams this year and 14 in 1961 when Minneapolis-St.

Paul will be in action. At the Florida meeting there was considerable agitation for televising only road games back to the member cities in addition to surrounding territories. There may be a weekly national hookup of the most important game. It's the best guess that in 1959 there weren't more than two or three teams, if that manv, that grossed less than $1,000,000. Cosfs Increase Operation costs are snaring every year and are certain to go higher from now on with the American league in action.

The bidding for the top college graduates is certain to get out of hand in short order. That will raise the average of the player payroll. Equipment, travel, enlarged scouting and coaching staffs will increase expenditures steadily. Yet no professional sports business has crown more in vcars ahead.
