Beattle, Wash, Baseball Warned (St. Louis Star-Times) A New York sportswriter says Baseball Commis- sioner Chandler is considering removal of the ban on | players who jumved to the Mexican League in 1946. That should be good news to the 20 or more players and to the clubs that would like to plug their lineups with some of them. But the New York Court of Appeals has said something more significant. It has called fdr a re- view of all baseball players’ rights under the anti- trust laws. This opens the possibility of a permanent end to the slave contracts of organized baseball. Before the court was the case of Danny Gardella, one of the Mexican jumpers, who sued Chandler and = | other baseball officials for $300,000.
