Alexander and Harry McCurdy, former Illinois university and Chica: go White Sox catcher, the World says, have been sent to the Phillies in exchange for Outfielder Peel and Pitcher Bob McGraw. Suspended for infraction of the rules during the fall campaign the action in trading Alexander was not unexpected.

CHIPMAN New York, Dec. 11—(?}—The ques- tion of shortening schedules was the most important business before the Meetings of the National and Ameri- can Leagues today. The National League yesterday went on record as favoring the shorter season, and a Poll of the rival circuit showed the Barnard Magnates also ready to vote affirmatively upon a Sept. 28 closing. Both leagues today were ready to take up the question of broadcasting regular league games, but this issue, like the schedule matter. doubtless j Will be finally decided only at the Joint session tomrorow. The chief item before the opening ., session of the two leagues yesterday was that of requiring clubs purchas- ing franchises in smaller circuits to make @ formal report of any such transaction to Commissioner Landis, to the two major leagues and to the National Association of professional | baseball leagues. Commissioner Lan- j dis put this question before the Mag- | nates, pointing out that since such ree | Ports now were made of individual ‘player purchases, such action was ,even more necessary when an entire | team of players was acquired. | terlocking ownership interests now | existing, for the guidance of all base- ; acted favorably upon the commission. {er's plan, but deferred definite dec! |sion until the joint meeting tomor- ;Tow.
