DiMaggio Likely to Get 30000 With Yankees for 1940
The New York Yankees board reportedly set a 1940 salary of 30000 for Joe DiMaggio. If confirmed, San Francisco will soon sign him, similar to last year, unlike the 1936 holdout. Salaries in baseball vary, with DiMaggio’s figure high yet far below Babe Ruth’s peak. Oberlin Offense Good, Defense Poor. Berlin College Yeomen basketball, coached by Walter Hargeshemmer, stand 2–4 after six games, averaging 38.6 points and yielding 44.6. Wooster College has 23 straight Ohio Conference wins, with Otterbein to be faced as Wooster seeks its 27th consecutive conference victory on the home floor.
