Baseball LiberaIizes
lis High School Rule
On Player Contracts
By the Associated Press

CINCINNATI, Mar. 10.-A new
agreement, permitting some high
school players to sign professional
contracts earlier than in the past,
was announced today by Baseball
Commissioner A. B. Chandler.
Effective March Is, it makes the
youngster eligible to play for pay
the day after the graduation of
the class with which he entered
school.
In other words. if he has put in
as much time as his original class
mates, but has dropped back in
his studies and will not graduate
with them. he is eligible to sign a
player contract.
The old rule stipulates that he
may not sign a contract until he
graduates, regardless of the num-
Der of years he stays in school.
The only other alternative
which is retained-provides that a
boy dropping out of school cannot
be signed to pro baseball until a
year has passed. Then, with the
consent of his parents, he may
petition the commissioner for per-
mission to sign contract.
Chandler was opposed to chang
ing the high school eligibility rule
when the agenda for the major
league joint meeting in New York
last December IA was drawn. The
major league Executive Council,
however, supported it.
At that meeting in New York,
it was agreed that Chandler and
the National Federation of State
High School Athletic Associations
negotiate the agreement which was
announced today.

Take Chest X-Ray,
Everyone Urged

A chest X-ray is the best method
of finding early tuberculosis. Mrs. r
Duwe, chairman of the Jackson st
X-ray project, said yesterday in urg-
ing everyone to have chest X-ray
when the Christmas Seal X-ray u
nit is stationed at Eighth Ave. and
Jackson St. Aug. II. Is. 10. during
the International Carnival.
The mobile x-ray unit will be open
from 4;30 to 6 p. m. and from $50 TO
1890 p. m. each day to offer free x
rays to all persons Is years of age
and older. Those between Is and
and 10 years of age must have their
carents' permission.
IF every person would have a
chest X-ray once a year. we would
be taking long step in the control
of tuberculosis" Mrs. Duwe added
tuberculosis is contagious di-
sease; it spreads from the sick per-
son to the we'll person. And since
there are no symptoms of tubercu-
losis in the beginning stages of the
disease, you can unknowingly spread
the disease to others and may lose
your own health"
The miniature X-rays taken on
the unit are screening films. II
shadows. suspicious of tuberculosis
are discovered on the small film, the
person is referred for a large X-ray
at one of the cooperating radiolo-
gists and then to his physician or
the tuberculosis clinic at the Health
department for further study. The
large X-ray is also free, provided by
Christmas Seal funds.
The Jackson st. Council and the
Anti-Tuberculosis League of King
County are co-sponsoring this re-
turn visit of the Christmas Seal x
ray Unit to the Jackson st. area.
Each person X-rayed receives a
confidential report of the findings
within three weeks.

Committee has been advised.
More than 200 claims out of some
10000 will be affected if the ruling
is made permanent.
Harold I. Dayton. acting director,
Office of Alien Property, said fl
nal decision will be handed down on
Aug. 10 unless new arguments are
presented to the DAP which would
reverse the present ruling.
Mike Masaoka. national JACL
Ado legislative director. said attor-
neys representing late filing claim
ants are being polled in an effort to
determine whether or not new argu-
ments can be presented to the DAP.
Baynton said all late claims we're
received between Nov. 81 and rs.
The JACL ADO has argued that be-
cause the late claims were post
marked on or prior to Nov. Is they
should be considered valid.
It pointed out the practice of ac-
cepting a postmark as a filing date
is accepted practice by the Bureau of
Internal Revenue, and is followed by
the Veterans Administration and
Office of Price Control.
The DAP however, holds that
filling" means receipt by the office
or appropriate officer or employee
thereof" and cited several court de-
cisions to uphold this position. "A
claim cannot be considered as fill
ed unless it is actually received by
this office" Baynton ruled.
