Chicago – Charley Grimm’s Fairy Tale – Bedecked as Santa, vice president Charley Grimm of the Chicago Cubs is pictured with third baseman Ron Santo at contract signing ceremony in Chicago. The scene figured because Santo’s 1963 contract called for the amount he asked – and didn't get it – in 1962, although his batting average skidded 57 points.
