Sox9 Hulett to smell coffee during strike By United Press International NEW YORK - Not all major leaguers will ride out a strike by puttering around the house or dancing the night away. Some will have to get jobs to make ends meet, since not all players make six-figure salaries. Tim Hulett, the White Sox rookie third baseman, is in that category. He makes the mini­ mum salary of $45,000. Now to steel workers walking a picket line in Wheeling, W.Va., that's a whole lot of money. But, like many youngsters who get their first taste of the good life, it's easy to live above your means when your pockets are bulging with money for the first time. *'I won't really be in trouble, but I won't be able to live an elite life any more," admits Hulett. "I'd have to have a job because everything we've saved would be gone in four or five months. I'm making last year's minimum, which is $45,000, and I know it sound like a lot but something happens to you when you get to the big leagues. "Your lifestyle is a little more expensive on the road and then it seems to carry over into your way of life. Aside from the mon­ ey, there's my baseball. At the beginning of the year I wasn't starting and I did well enough to get a starting job. You need a big break to get a starting job and maybe I'll never get one again. "I may have to go out and win a job all over again sometime. I spent five years in the minor leagues and it's so much better up here." Hulett says in the advent of a strike he will seek employment in a coffee machine making fac­ tory back home in Springfield. He had worked their previously before embarking on his baseball career. "They're really good to me. They give me pretty much the hours I need so I can still play baseball," said Hulett. "But I'd miss the baseball in the big leagues. Baseball is a hard, day- in, day-out, dog-day kind of thing sometimes but you take a week off and you miss it already. Even the guys that aren't going to have to do anything, like get a job they don't like are going to find that. I know these guys aren't going to be just sitting around." Hulett has no regrets about supporting a strike, however. "Everything I have now is what players have given up be­ fore me," he said. "It's my obli­ gation now to do whatever I have to do for the future." Strike sends Rose back... to minors By United Press International CINCINNATI - The baseball players' strike is sending Pete Rose back to the minor leagues. To scout. "I'll probably go watch the (Reds') Double-A and Triple-A teams," said the Cincinnati player- manager. "I just wonder if I'm al­ lowed to work out with them?" The strike interrupted Rose's as­ sault on Ty Cobb's all-time hit re­ cord of 4,191. When the strike was called, Rose was just 24 hits short of topping Cobb. But Rose isn't worried. "If I don't break the record this year, I'll do it next year," he said. "The only time I get angry is when they just dicker around in January, February and March, in­ stead of getting down to negotia­ tions," he said. Flexible life insurance with high cash value.
