CHANGE PRICE ON
DRAFTED PLAYERS
Major League Leaders Decide to In
crease Sum For Glass IA
Men TO $3.50.

CHICAGO, Jan. MA jor league
aseball leaders meeting here today
with Judge *. NJ. Lands, baseball
commissioners. decided to amend the
major-minor draft agreement SO that
.s7.5oO instead of $1,000 will be the
price for drafting a player from the
class IA leagues This agreement.
according to Ban Johnson, American
league head, and John Heydler. who
represented the National league, viii
be the last concession Of the majors
to induce the minors to accept the
draft.
The major league chiefs consented
TO increase nc price only after an all
day meeting, the most Of which was
taken up by John Conway Toole, pres
ident of the international league. and
President Hickey of the American AS
ISOLATION. in explaining why their cir
cults have objected to the ma or
leagues selecting one player annually
from each club.
At the suggestion Of Judge lands,
the amendment to the draft is to be
worded that either major league can
withdraw prior to January /. 1923.
This was the only condition on which
President Johnson and President
Heydier would agree to the change.
Both Hickey and Toole expressed a
belief that the raise might satisfy
their respective club owners but the
matter will have to be put before these
men and also before the major eague
owners before it can be put into eff
feet.
No statement was made at the close
Of today's meeting regarding the pro-
posal recently submitted to Judge
Lands by Al Tearney. president of the
western and Three-Eye leagues, the
only other circuits not within the
scope of the draft Tearney presented
proposals which he said would stop
the farming out of drafted players by
the majors.
Minor league leaders said that the
higher price would make the majors
less anxious to draft players indis-
criminately In returning drafted
man only half the draft price will be
paid back, as in the original agree
ment.
THE new arrangement II accepted,
it was stated, will include the feature
agreed to by the advisory council in
New York to the effect that when
players are turned back by the majors
they must be offered first to class "A,
then to class A leagues and so on UNI
til they, are accepted. This will in
sure the player of being in company
fitting his ability.
Leslie O'Connor. secretary to Judge
lands, said tonight that President
johnson and President Heyd1er were
both opposed to the higher price but
had agreed to give 1t a years trial to
determine how it will operate.

a field goal, shot by Alberta Rohl
Mable Tams again Gagged a free throw
for her team and tied the score, which
