Mats Hopes for Trade
Chilled as Yankees
Increase Demands
BY Burton Howkins
Star SioH Correspondent

BALTIMORE, Dec. 8.-Wash-
ington's trade e-fninded contingent
pulled stakes today and headed
home, but only for brief stay
before journeying to New York in
continuing their quest of aid for
the stricken Mats.
There was a temporary chill on
negotiations with the New York
Yankees, with President Clark
Griffith Indignantly rejecting a
Yankee counterproposal which
has transformed an original four
for-one deal into a three-for-two
proposition.
"They want another one of our
players to send to Kansas City"
said Griffith, in contact with
Manager Bucky Harris and Vice
President Calvin Griffith by tele-
phone. 1--WE won't make any deal
on that basis"
Washington's idea was to dis
patch First Baseman Eddie
Robinson to New York for Sec
ond Baseman George Stirnweiss
Catcher Gus Niarhos, First Base
man Dick Kryhoski and Pitcher
Don johnson, but the Yankees
are attempting to withdraw one
| of that quartet while plucking
lesser light from the Mats for
Kansas City service.
Negotiations between the clubs
have not collapsed and indications
that the Mats will pursue then
objectives more strenuously lie ir
the fact that the 80-year-olc
Grifath will accompany Harri!
and Calvin Griffith to New Yorl
saturday.
| The major league meeting
doesn't open until Monday. but
the Mats bosses admittedly will
arrive in New York early to
huddle with other officials in an
attempt to swing a deal.
Should the Mats and Yankees
fail to get together there is likli-
hood that Detroit will bid strenu-
ously for Robinson, with Out
fielder Dick Wakefield a certainty

Move 10 Erase
Regulation Fails
Al Baltimore
Measure Under Fire
For Last Two Years
Remains on Books
By the Assoeiofsd Press

BALTIMORE, Dec. "a move
to repeal baseball's controversial
bonus rule failed today at closed
executive session of the National
Association of Minor Leagues.
Although the repeal amendment.
submitted by Pittsburgh's Indian
apolis farm of the American As
sociation, actually drew 80 yes
votes to 26 against, the measure
fell far short of the required three
fourths majority. One league
passed its vote.
Only IS negative votes were
needed to defeat the proposd
amndment, most important piece
of business on the convention
program.
Warren Giles, president of the
Cincinnati Reds, spoke against
repeal. r. c. Torrance, vice pres
ident of the Seattle club Of the
Pacific Coast League and Cy Nor
gan, Philadelphia Phillies farm
system official, we're spokesmen
for the amendment.
Restriction on Players.
The bonus rule, effective since
February Is, 1947, severely re-
stricts movements of players paid
more than specified amounts to
sign. The player becomes a
bonus player" until given an
unconditional release, if he is paid
more than $4,000 to sign with a
major, triple A or double A club.
$4,000 with a class A team or
$4,000 with any other league.
The bonus player" can not be
farmed out to lower league un-
less everybody else in the league
passes him up at the waiver price.
The waiver price varies in different
classifications from $4,000 in the
majors to $100 in class D.
If the bonus player" is with any
minor league club he is subject to
unrestricted draft.
Exceptions to this broad general
rule provide that a bonus player"
who is obtained by draft or waiv-
ers, can be farmed out for one
year.
Under Attack Two Years.
The bonus rule has been under
attack for two years because it
has failed in its purpose-stop-
ping huge cash payments to un-
tried youngsters.
Both the major league council
and the major-minor executive
council recommended its repeal,
but in September the major
league owners rejected the recon-
mendation.
Most big league owners oppose
the rule but they are at odds on
the mechanics of ending it. Some
want the bonus player" to be
abolished Immediately while others
want those clubs stuck with
bonus players" to be forced to
carry them for another year or
two.
Prize examples of the bonus rule
are players like Pitcher Curt Sim
mons of the Philadelphia Phillies
who was paid a repotred 100000

Terrific Impad Is Caused in
 Western World by Explosion
 Disclosure by us. President

WASHINGTON, Sept 24-R- The United States stlll holds vast lead over Russia in the field of atomic weapons and in all proba- bility will never lose it, top Ameri- can officials said today.
 They'll never catch up with US" said one high security official in the wake of President Trumans disclosure yesterday that there has been an atomic explosion in Russia. While it was calmly worded, the Presidents statement itself ex- ploded throughout the. western world with terrific impact
 It brought urgent-and hopeful new demands from lawmakers, so.entists, diplomats and others for effective international atom con- trols--a demand which merely echoed MT. Truman's own words.
 It caused a general whitening of Congressional opposition to sharing American atomic secrets with Brit ain and Canada.
 And it raised questions enough to keep the world guessing for months.
 How did the news reach this country? One official who knew said hundreds of persons and numerous agencies were involved. Another said it was miracle of intelligence"
 But whether it involved Sp.es, ground equipment. or airborne radi- ation-detecting instruments-or all three-no one would say for sure.
 Was it definitely an atomic bomb, or just an accidental explosion? A bomb, absolutely, experts said and, apparently, the Sovlets' first successful one.
 But when and where the expio- sion occurred, how efficient the Russian comb may be. and what effect it might have on future re- lations between the East and the West-those questions and dozens of others went unanswered except for hints and guesses.
 The President said the explosion occurred fin recent weeks"
 Scientists in Sweden reported picking up an earth tremor Sept. IA which they said might have been an A-bomb in Siberia. But the New York Daily News said in a Rome dispatch that western officials have known about the Russian bomb for at least nine weeks.
 An American official hinted that MT. Truman knew about it for several days, at least.
 Also from Rome, Pietro Nenni, Pro-Communist leader of the Italian Socialist party, said the bomb was touched off in Eastern Siberia. Nenni was just Tack from a trop to Moscow.
