Lopez and Wilson Are Dodger Holdouts Again
New York Jan. 29.-(AP)-Al Lopez and Hack Wilson, who gave the Brooklyn Dodgers several headaches last year before agreeing to terms, are holdouts again.
Lopez, peppery little Cuban catcher, has returned his contract unsigned because he did not think he had received as big an increase as his work in 1933 deserved
Wilson is trying to persuade club officials he should receive the same salary he was paid last year. The Dodgers can't see it that way at the moment.
