DAVE FULTZ Is CAUSTlC
OVER REULBACH RELEASE

NEW YORK. February 2l.--David
Fultz, president of the Players Fruter-
nifty. issued statement here to-day,
characterizing the unconditional re-
lease OF Edward Reulbach by the
brooklyn Nationals "as another evil
dence Of the unfairness of the present
waiver rule al operated by organized
ball" Fultz said lie had submitted n
request that tho National Baseball
Commission and the National Board OF
Arbitration notify the fraternity when
waivers are asked on players.
Reviewing Reulbach's case. Fultz
said
"On November 81 last the club Sc
cured waivers on ReubBch, and thus
evidenced It's intention Of not signing
him for 1915. Notwithstanding this,
iteulbnch was not notified that waivers
had been asked, or OF tho clubs In
tention until January 81. this year,
three days before the club either would
nave to send him a contract or reIea Sc
him. On this day no WAS released un-
conditionally after all clubs had vlr-
tually completed their rosters Cor the
coming season.
we make no comment on the Brook
Ign clubs motives. but simply say that
any regulation which permits a man to
be held for months at the will Of an
other when that other has already de-
cided not to employ him is vicious, and
should be done away with"
