Jim Bunning signed a 1965 contract boosting his pay to an estimated 50 000 to 60 000 with the Phillies after a perfect game last June. Jim Bouton agreed to 1965 terms as a solid raise for the Yankees. Masanari Murakami said he prefers playing in Japan, while Giants owner claims his contract was purchased for 10 000 and Hawks say they loaned him to the NL club for one year. Commissioner Frick has broken relations with Japanese leagues over the dispute. The Mets signed Galen Cisco, a pitcher with a 6 19 record and 3.41 ERA last season.
