Ball players are no longer bought

the %up-to-date sporting writer will re.
frain from speaking Of such a thing.
Hereafter a club will not SELL a
player TO another club. instead It. will
assign his contract" which is the
correct way of putting 1t after all,
for that is just what a sale"
amounts to. Secretary Farrell in his
latest bulletin of minor league con
tracts signed. transfers, releases, etc.
makes use OF the new term and club
magnates in referring to deals they
make are expected to fall in line.
Secretary Farrell in his bulletin
notifies clubs that all players must
sign the new form of contract, even
though they have signed the old
form for 1921. The new style CON
tracts have been issued to all lea

discarded.
The new forms of contracts have
been received by tie Chickasha
Baseball association and officials
are today busy sending out the new
contracts to players already signed.
Players signed in the future will affix
their names to the dotted line of the
new forms.
Jakubic is a holdout. A letter re-
ceived from him states that he must
have nor money than was offered
in the contract sent him. Jake is
anxious to come back to Chickasha,
but has it figured out that he will
burn the league up this year and will
be worth more cash. The ideas of
the local officials, however, seem to
differ and there is little or no dis
position to meet Jake's terms. If he
wants to wear a Chickasha uniform,

him, according to the views of local
