the National Bauebullfcommission or
the committee froni' the. minor leagues
it will be only after a hard struggle.
This day elopcd curly at 'the joint
meeting of the three bodice; hero yes-
terday, when the committed from the
fraternity was heard.
The committee was headed by David
Fultz. president of the fraternity, and
included five players. At the open.
lag; of the meeting it was decided to
take up the requests one by one. If
no agreement could be reached on
any of them it was. to be laid aside
and the next taken up.
The first request was as follcvvsi
"When a player receives ten days‘
-—.. .—

AMUSEMENTS
shall be free to sign with any team
immediately. tho contract to run from
the expiration of the ten days’ par-I
Iod.” '
it was discussed threcunartera of
an hour. and after the playera? com-
mittee refused to permit the substi-
tution by tho committee of the word
“negotiate" after the words “shall be
free to" was laid aside to be taken
up later.
’ The second request taken up read:
"National association players shall
receive ten days‘ notice before they
can be released unconditionally."
Mike Sexton argued this rule for
the committee from the minor leagues.
lie said this concession might be
made by Class AA and Class A
loaguou. butthut below that standing
it was impossible. lio declared that
76 per cent. of the leagues below
‘Clussr A were losers last year, and be
estimated with this rule in effect In
May. June and July of last -year it
would have cost the minor leagues
below Class A $330. 000.
Raqucst No. 6 read: “M the time
contracts are sent out. every player
shall receive a copy to be kept by him
‘fnr his own one."
This wan agreed to without discus-
sion. Chairman illerrmunn saying that
he heartily agreed with the players.
Request No. 7: “All written agrou-
mouts whnther embodied In formal
contract or not shall be binding upon
both the club and the player."
l’rosident Hermann announced
‘alrreemcut on this rule. but this wan
objected to by the committee from the
minor leagues, who incisiodithat all

was decided that in the manner In
which it was worded. it was unfeaslblc
and would not work out. It is pos
sible, however. that a new request to
take the place of this rule, which will
embody the same principle, will be
agreed to.
Following the introduction of the
different requests. Governor Toner.
president of tlIoINatlonal “Lea um. made
a short address. after which the open
meeting was gathered adjourned. The
National Com‘lission, the committee
(from the minor leagues and the com
,mittee from the fraternity thou went
into executive session.
in all the joint commission agreed
to eleven of the requests of tho play-
ors and passed over six.
