CHUCK KLEIN REFUSES TO DISCUSS TERMS WITH PHILLIES

Ruch May Drop Star Local Slugger Will Not Budge in Salary Demand. y lim't Special WINTER HAVEN, Fla., March 18. —Chuck Klein, the slugging outfielder from Indianapolis, may not be seen with the Phillies this season. This startling statement was made by President Ruch of the Philly club after Chuck had refused to come to Winter Haven to discuss terms. According to Ruch, Klein not only snubbed }.he president's invitation to come to the training quarters at the Phillies’ expense, but almost made it plain that he wQI not budge an inch on his original salary demands and will not report to camp until his terms are met. Negotiations between the player and club have reached the accute stage, it amounts to a rebellious declaration that the Phillies can give Klein what he asks or they can go hang—and there Is a feeling about Winter Haven that the club may decide to let the alternative happen. Each would not admit such. He is too even tempered and diplomatic to admit that his temper is even ruffled. But as he discussed the situation today, he appeared menacingly calm. He had that bulldog quietness that may mean he will hang on for a long while. Club officials have ai\ idea thai* Chuck may have a manager who is ad vising him. “Someone is giving him bad advice,” declared Ruch.
