LETTERS, Page 8Peddling Athletes' Autographs
Shouldn't your description of how sports stars are selling
their autographs (SPORT, May 15) have appeared in the Business
section? There is something slightly sleazy about a ballplayer's
charging for his signature. And as for Joe DiMaggio's $30 price
tag, say it ain't so, Joe.

If the majority of fans waiting in line for their favorite
players' autographs are children, as your writer says, then from
what I've seen, we are raising a generation of rather large,
gray-haired and balding kids with age lines on their faces.
