We feel our salary list will compare favorably with that of any other club in Canadian Pro football." As to the $100 reward for winning the Grey Cup, the president emphasized that each player had received $2,100 in salary and bonuses for the four By Ed Wills Associated Pres suff Writer The National League moves into its "second openers" today with Cincinnati's unbeaten Reds in first place after Philadelphia Phillies managed to take advantage of Los Angeles mistakes and hand the Dodgers their first loss. The Ottawa Football Club management is anxious to correct the impression that it is unappreciative of the team's 1960 Grey Cup victory. Club president Barry O'Brien said yesterday that GM George Terlep, now in the process of negotiating 1961 contracts, is being as generous as possible in the way of salary increases. A story in The Citizen on Wednesday carried a report that there was dissatisfaction among the players over the elimination of a $300 playoff bonus clause.

The story also said players claimed that in many cases they were actually being asked to take what amounted to a ANOTHER IIPWMK the last two innings three of them gifts, salvaged the final game of their' three-game set at Los Angeles Thursday night, winning 8-7.

Duke Snider drove in the fust three runs off Phillies starter John Buzhardt with a home run and a double. The bases-empty homer was Duke's 369th, giving him a tie with Ralph Kiner for seventh place on the all time list. Only Stan Musial of the Cards has hit more (429) among active players. Pitcher Starts Rally The Giants, who tad lost six straight to Face since May 4, 1958, won it when winning reliever Jim Duffalo doubled in the 12th and Felipe Alou and Harvey Kuenn followed with singles. Duffalo, a right-handed rookie once owned by the Pirates, had forced in a run in the Uth with a bases-loaded walk, but Hobie Landrith pulled the Giants square again with a home run in their half of the inning.

Ed Bressoud smacked a three-run homer off Pirates starter Harvey Haddix and Rocky Nelson homered off Jack Sanford, Giants' starter. Lindy McDaniel, the Cards' relief ace, forced in the winning run at Milwaukee by walking pinch-hitter Mel Roach with the bases loaded in the 11th. Seth Morehead, late of the Cubs, won, retiring all five men he faced after relieving Ron Piche with two men on base and one out in the 10th. Ken Boyer and Joe Cunningham, who drove in three runs, homered for the Cards. Jerry Lynch's pinch homer came off reliever Jim Brewer in the eighth inning after loser Joe Schaffernoth had walked two.

Gordy Coleman scored the other two Cincinnati runs with a homer that tied the game in the fourth. Bob Purkey won, going all the way with an eight-hitter and striking out seven men.

Johnny Lipon makes his debut at Toronto, Larry Sheppard at Columbus, Gene Verble at Syracuse and Joe Shultz at San Juan. During the off season, Toronto severed its affiliation with Cleveland and became an independent setup. Syracuse allied with Minnesota Twins and San Juan hooked-up with St Iouis after the Cardinals separated from Rochester. The Red Wings found a new affiliate in Baltimore, the Miami tie-in last year.

New York still owns Richmond outright and the affiliations were maintained between Columbus and Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Philadelphia and Jersey City and Cincinnati.

By Marven Moss Canadian Press Staff Writer MONTREAL Smiling Tommy Richardson starts his rookie year as president of baseball's Class AAA International League with an over-riding goal and a full measure of optimism. His big task is to recoup last season's attendance drop of almost 24 per cent, which lowered the eight club gate to 1,369,011. The IL, grand daddy of all minor league circuits, swings into its 78th season with a single opener Monday, Toronto's pennant-defending Maple Leafs at San Juan, Puerto Rico, one of two new franchise sites.

A capacity crowd of 15,000 is expected. Richardson, former vaude-' ville performer and car salesman, came up from the Eastern League to take over from Frank (Shag) Shaughnessy. Shag, at 77 after 24 years as president, found he couldn't get around the way he once did and 1 1 on a $10,000 a year pension. Expects Close Run Last year's lag in fan Interest a condition that came about when the Maple Leafs ran off with the pennant by 17 games Richardson feels will be straightened out by a tight race. "All the weaker clubs have fortified themselves," he said in an interview.

"No club stands out much more than another." Richardson wants the league to expand to 10 teams in 1962. He says a number of cities look potentially good for franchises. But what he wants most is Montreal back in the fold. Aside from the shuffle that moved the Miami operation to San Juan, the league lost Montreal when it picked up Syracuse. Weak attendance was behind both shifts.

Richardson plans to move the league headquarters back to New York after May 1. That's when the lease expires at the IL's down town Montreal offices. a ughnessy relocated here in the early 1950s. Five Pilots Make Debuts The league's new look features five clubs with new managers.

She combined with Bells Ringing, winner of the first, for a daily-double of $22.00. Wildshore, a four-year old filly, scampered into an early lead and won by iVt lengths.
