CONTRACT BALL
PLAYERS TO HOLD
FORMER STATUS
Base Ball Stars to Gain Back
Their Former Places in
Major and Minor
Leagues.

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 6.-Requests
that the changes be made in the
draft provision Of the national
agreement as we'll as in the pro-
vision concerning optional agree
ments on baseball players, made by
a committee from the National As
ISOLATION of Base Bali clubs was
the chief business before the Ma
tional Base Ball commission today.
Following the presentation of the
requests by A. L. Tea, president of
the Three | league and chairman OF
the committee, the committee prom
ised to see that the matter was pre-
sented before the joint meeting of
the National and American leagues
at New York on January 10, but re-
fused to state whether they would
be endorsed or disapproved.
No Election Held.
The National commission did not
hold any election today. Chairmen
August Herman in his annual ad-
dress recommended that a reorgani-
cation be deferred until after the
joint meeting of the two leagues or
until one of the several ideas rela-
tive to one-man commission could
be definitely determined.
Before the commission adjourned
sine die, the following notice was
issued:
THE commission has received in
quiries as to their status from sew
eral national agreement ball players,
who before the completion of the
full term of their 1918 contracts
were given their releases and now
contend that they are free agents.
This action by the various ma
tional agreement clubs was taken
with the sanction of the national
commission, because of the strict en-
forcement by the federal government
of its work or fight order.
"All national agreement players
are notified that the priority Of their
respective 1918 clubs to retain them
for this season, as reserved by the
various clubs, will be respected in
order that the organization of major
and minor leagues and the equip
ment of their respective clubs may
be retained and the resumption Of
the game can be effected without
impairment to the interests of clubs
or players"
Consider Budget.
The committee from the National
association was the only body that
presented anything to the COM
mission today and the remainder Of
the time was taken up in con-
sidering the years budget and
other minor routine matters.
The schedule committee of the
National and American leagues
will hold a meeting tomorrow and
take up their problems where they
were forced to leave out at French
