He, of all people, should realize the importance of having his players out before the pub¬ lic. If he feels the Cubs should be compensated for personal appear¬ ances—then maybe the Cub front office should pay them! “The Cubs are absolutely wrong,” continued Drees, “for demanding pay¬ ment for in-the-park interviews.
