MINORS CAN QUIT;
RULING PROTECTS
President TearnPy Receives Answer
From Query 0f National Com
mission on Subject.

Territorial and PLAYER rights 81
minor leagues which find themselves
unable re complete uhe season will be
fully protected
Such was the announcement of the
governing board Of the National AS
ISOLATION Of Professional Baseball
+ Leagues, in answer to Il request for
Q ruling filed by President Al Tearney
/ of the Three-EEo league. The ruling
was issued by John H. Farrell. secre-
tary of the association.
Players in minor leagues, however.
the decision further states. who are
thrown out of employment by the clos
ing of any league shall be considered
free to seek berths wherever possible
for the remainder Of the season More
over the association announced that
any league which finds the going too
strenuous and desires to suspend it's
schedule must specify q date for clos
ing
The salaries Of all players in the
league suspending must be paid in full
and such players must report 70 the
club holding their contracts next
spring Territorial rights connot be
lnfrInged upon, and even should the
league suspend its schedule retains all
rights. and the circuit, geogra phicaIy.
must be considered as remaining ia
tact
1T is the policy of the national
board 10 help our league menah ers in
view OF conditions that have DC ex-
listed for so years and the unusual sac
rlhces already made" the statement
said 1T is hoped, however, that the
leagues win exhaust every possible
effort before giving mp the struggle"
Iearney expressed himself as high
ly pleased with the ruling Of the
board Several weeks ago when Gnan-
CiaI matters in the Three Eve league
were ANYTHING but promising, Tearuey
wired the heads of Is minor leagues
requesting thar each abandon It's
schedule on July Simultaneously
fearney wired the National associa-
uon for decision as to protection of
player and territorial rights i'm case
the concerted abandonment of the
schedule came to pass The stare
meht OF Farrell yesterday was in an
swer to the request
The portion of the ruling concern
lns bali players reporting next sprjna
10 clubs holding their contracts ie
construed as meaning that the ma
tlonal board is contemplating steps fo
heip the minors start next season AZ
least. 1t was generally believed that
should the war continue through nex+
year the minors would not atfempt ~
open their gates. However. that tba
national board should urge the minors
TO 90 ahead and take measures to. pro
teet both player and territorial rights
fer next wear looks promising.
Iearney's scheme TO have the n
leagues abandon their schedules seems
to have borne no fruit He has re
ceived few answers and all of then,
have been recorded as in favor of con
unuing throughout the season.
