BAN JOHNSON TO PROPOSE
BOYCOTT AGAINST MINORS

New York, Nov. 16.--A pro-.
posal that the American League
boycott the minor leagues which
have held out against the draft
will be made by Ban Johnson at
the December meeting OF the
Junior circuit in New York, ac-
cording to reports here. This. It
was said, Is the bomb which Mr..
Johnson said recently he In
tended to toss into the meeting.
The draft question has been
agitatng baseball for the last
two years. When Commissioner
lands was inducted into office
five of the minor league clubs
obtained exemption from the
provisions of the draft agree
ment. Last year a proposal that
the five minor leagues be boy
cotted failed at meeting of the
National League Clubs. Now it
Is proposed. according to re-
ports, to place the proposition
before the American League.
The five minors which are
not bound by the dCaft agree
ment are: American Associa-
tlon, International League. Pa
cific Coast League, Three
League and Western League.
