By Associated Press

Milwaukee, Wis, May 1S.-Charles A. Conf mskey, president of the Chicago American League club. and his son, Louis, under legal technicallty. cannot be summoned to appear to be questioned in Wisconsin courts in the suit for back pay filed by oscar Happy" Felsch, former White Sox player, Comiskey's attorney, George B. Hudnall, told Judge John J. Gre gory in circuit court today.
 Previously Judge Gregory had set over for one week an order for the appearance of the Comiskeys today This, he said, was because the court calendar was congested.
 Attorney Hudnall based his plea on section of the law under which, he said. Felsch was suing the Chi cago club as a corporation.
 Attorneys for Felseh, he said, could get the Comiskeys' deposition In Chicago or elsewhere.
 "Felsch should have no standing in any court" he said, and we do mot propose to have the Comiskeys dragged all over the country to be exploited by the attorneys for these ball players"
