.-~-----
First Session Attracts Large Num-
Der of Baseball Followers and
Players of Note.
(By Associated Press.)

CHICAGO, Jan. 29.-The powers
that control organized baseball were
described as oppressors OF minor
leagues and players by Reese Adding
ton counsel for the Federal League,
in his opening address today in the
antitrust suit against the National
Commission, the American and the
National Leagues. The Attorney cit
ed features of the National Agree
ment, decisions of the National Com
mission End general practices OF
baseball authorities to show that the
game is governed by q group having
almost absolute power to make laws,
Judge infractions and impose penal
ties.
Addington had not finished his open
ing argument when court adjourned
tonight and 1t was declared the case
probably would last we'll into next
week. The first session attracted O
large number of baseball followers,
including the presidents of both de-
fendant leagues. the chairman OF the
National Commission, leaders of the
Federals and many players OF note.
Addington devoted a large portion
or his address to an attack on the
waiver and draft rules and nracti1es.
He declared the former vseted control
of the player not aionc in the club
he server hut also in other clubs His
chance of becoming free agent is
slight, according to Addinrtop. sipco.
1T requires action of many different
entities. The attorney charged that
