WITH T HE
HIGH SCHOOLS
BY BOB HANSON

! The first week a call went
out, about 125 boys from some
is schools turned out. Last Mon
day the number had swelled to
140.
The boys furnish their own
skates. Pucks and sticks as well
las the coaching is provided by
the Washington Lions.
1--WE won't do anything about
forming teams or a league until
after the Christmas holidays, >
Jack Riley. general manager OF
Uline's. said. "By that time we
hope to have the list trimmed
down. We've closed registrations
and will concentrate now on
keeping only those who show
ability"
In all probability there will
be about six teams with Is boys
to q team. Some schools. unable
to put out team of their own
will combine with another school
/ Just how the proposed league
will operate remains to be seen
The District public highs, fol-
one, won't sanction a league
Boys representing these schools
cannot use the school name il
a league is formed, according
to Hardy Pearce, director OF
athletics of the District public
high schools.

A small fellow, weighing about
Il55, Sachon was an excellent
boxer. a shot putter and basket

rector Of athletics at Gu, calls
him one of the best co-ordinated
athletes he ever saw.

for Norview, but not for Sachon

MAJORS MAKE FEW CHANGES
MI Holds Out Hope
OF N Aid for Minors

CHICAGO. Dec. 7 R.-The
National League today held out
a glimmer of hope to the minors
in the form of revenue from g
proposed game Of the week
telecast, but the majors turned
thumbs down on such player re-
quests as a $1,000 minimum pay
unlimited winter ball and an in
side role on negotiating a new
World Series TV contract.
The National went out of its
way to label as very important
its decision to ask Walter O'Mal-
ley. Brooklyn president, to con-
tinue his efforts to work out
plans to use income from a pro-
posed game of the week" TV
broadcast of major league games
on Saturday afternoons to aid
the minors.
O'Malley revealed last week
his proposal to set up a network
telecast that would net So mill
, lion. with half going to the
minors.
The minors, through the pres
idents of their class B, c and D
leagues. have asked the majors
to help work out a plan for ''im-
mediate relief Of the damaging
effects Of TV broadcasts into
minor league territory" Al
though this request was not
acted upon by the American
League and was rejected by the
National because of its ''intem-
perate" language, the National
voted to lend a hand.
Rebuff on Regulation
Commissioner Ford Prick re-
realed Monday that he had been
rebuffed by the Justice Depart
ment in an attempt to set up a
test case on the right of baseball
to regulate radio and Tv broad
casts Of its games. The minors
blame radio and TV for a large
share Of their attendance decline
in recent years.
A game Of the week" TV
show has been in operation in
recent years. Only three clubs
participated in the original plan,
but many others Joined last sea-
son. 1t was learned that the
entire Is major league clubs were
considering participation in 1856.
In view of this suggestion and
Tricks announcement, the mi
nors' proposal to restrict radio
and TV broadcaSts to stations
within the 'home" territory (75
miles of the club was rejected
by the majors.
The majors also turned down
the minors proposal to change
the law on returning servicemen,
making them count on the player
limit after 80 days instead Of
one year.
Few Concessions to Players
On the player demands. the
majors refused to go along with
the increase from $1,000 to 1920
in minimum pay. They also re-
jected proposal to let the play
ers negotiate on their ewn with
winter league teams and refused
to keep the players informed
on the new World Series TV con-
tract. The old Series pact ex-
pires after the 1855 games.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1955-12-07

The players have asked the
majors to limit themselves to two
bonus players for each club and
asked that the World Series start
on a Thursday to acquire revenue
from a Sunday game. Both were
rejected. The players did get
extra spring training expenses
for men living with their families
away from the club hotel. NOV
ing expenses for men traded dur
ing spring training and free
medical examinations. It was
agreed that spring training could
start before March if the play
ers agree, but no exhibition
games can be played before
March 10.
Such controversial matters as
a vote on throwing out the bonus
rule, unrestricted draft of first
year" players and restrictions on
the playing rules committee were
not considered because they had
been turned down by the minors
at Columbus last week.
A plan for two trade days.
one each in July and August
after the June Is deadline, and q
for inter-league sched-
ules were withdrawn by their
sponsors. So was another sug-
gestion to permit bonus pay
ments to players who met speci-
fed goals such as hitting 800 OF
winning 20 games.
All Stars Honor Griff
The 1856 All-Star Game at
Washington, Tuesday, July 10.
was dedicated to the memory of
the late Clark Griffith, former
president of the Washington
club.
These decisions came out of
the joint meeting Of the majors,
final event on a two-day pro-
gram. Earlier in the day the
voted to make 1t man.
datory for all players to wear
protective helmets when taking
their place in the batter'S box.
The American acted to speed up
games by ruling that no man.
ager. umpire or nonplaying per-
son must visit the pitcher more
than once. A violation would
result in the pitcher being auto
matically removed from the
game.
