Goslin not only broke e openly flouted them, and continued I repeatedly warned of the fate that his ways. . very rule on the list of **don’ts.” but his transgressions after having been would befall him unless he mended “Goslin will have to convince me by action as well as word that his conduct hereafter will be above crit: standing.” Milan said today. “The players are down here for a serious purpose—to get into good physical condition—and there is no place for any one who regards spring training as a lark. No team ever can expect to get anywhere {f it has on_its roster men who have such a light regard for its welfare as to deliberately jeopardize it by shirking in any form. A joyrider not only handicaps himself by failure to de- liver to the full extent of his cap: bilities, but impairs the general ef- fectiveness of the entire team by shaking its morale. Must Behave Themselves. “As long as I am manager of this club it will employ only players will- ing to give the best that is in them at all times. I will not stand for it being disrupted by any one to whom the business at hand is secondary to having a good time. Goslin has will- fully broken all training rules and until such time as he convinces me it will never happen again he will have to look elsewhere for a job. won't have a player with bad habits on the squad, and that goes for every one regardless of his position, length of service or ability.” Clark Grifith was outspoken in his denunciation of the actions of Gos- 1in and was even more caustic in his comments than the manager. In ad- dition to being incensed, it was ap- rent that the club president was itterly disappointed to learn that a youngster in whose base ball future he had the greatest faith apparently lacks mental balance and moral fiber. Griff, who last season visited Co- Jumbia, S. C., and passed on the re- ports of his scouts, by giving Goslin & personal inspection, has been most Javish in his praise of the young out- fielder’s potential worth. He has re- peatedly asserted that Goslin gave promise of developing into one of the _most effective sluggers to graduate into fast company in many years. Realization that his optimistic_ esti- mates are subject to radical revision took all the joy out of life for the president. But, deeply chagrined though he was, Griff showed no dis- position to temporize for an Instant. ‘Will Back Milan to Limit. “Milan will be backed to the limit in any course he takes to enforce dis- cipline on the ball club,” Griff said. “If Goslin is the sort of fellow his actions here indicate he has no right to a place in base ball, and certainly not on my team. He would be a detri- ment to it. Aside from other con- sideration, it would be unfair to the other players to have a chap of his type in a position where he could undo their best efforts. “There is absolutely no chance that he will be sold or traded while under suspension. None of my players ever will figure in any kind of deal unless he is in good standing at the time. “If he proves he can obey the rules, I am not so sure but that he will have to accept a new contract.

The other players, almost without exception, condemn his actions unqualifiedly and regard him as entitled to no sympathy what- ever.

CONTRACT IS BINDING, “JUDGE LANDIS ASSERTS CHICAGO, March 11.—Three play- ! ers reinstated to the eligible roil of {major lcague clubs, four applications denied. two men consigned to the in- ellgitie lst, a_draft on the world champion New York Glants for $1,764, payatle within ten days, and the ab- stract ruling that signed contracts betwcen clubs and players are not sct aside by prior verbal agreements —these were decisions handed down by Commissioner Landis, supreme chief of organized base bail. Written into the awards is the ad- monition to both players and clubs that a base ball contract is an en- forceable instrument which signatory partles are bound to execute in the utmost good faith. Six players, left in the ineligible group must charge- their plight to outlaw practices while under con- tract with various clubs, the judge said, and may be absolved oniy by “one full year's dissociation from base ball.” They are William B. Haeffner, Pittsburgh Nationals; Ray Demmitt, §t. Louis Americans; D. J. Hickman, James H. Caton, Nerman Plitt and George H. Dumhont, Brook- lyn Nationals, A bill for $1,764 was presented to the New York Nationals for the “im- proper transfer” of Howard Burkett to the Norfolk club. Birmingham purchased Burkett from Norfolk, fol- lowing his assignment to the Vir- ginlans by the champions, and turn- ed the amount over to the big leaguers. “Inasmuch as the Giants had no claim upon the player following his acceptance by Norfolk, having vio- lated section 13 (H) of article two of the major-minor league rules, whick says that all right or claim to the player ceases when such an arrange- ment is made, and the minor league club acquired no rights to Burkett by its participation in the prohibited rhrrlnzemem. it was ordered that the purchase money be turned over to Burkett within_ten days. Birming- ham's title to Burkett is unchanged by the decision.” James C. Garton, given to Norfolk under similar circumstances, was de- clared a free acent, and may not be under contract for 1922, either Nor- folk or New York. John Wieneke, assigned to Buffaio for 1922 by the Chicago Americans. who sought his unconditional release on the ground that he was promised such outside his contract, in the event of his faflure to make the White Sox regulars, was denied his plea. Wieneke must play with Buf- falo or go to the ineligible list. Frank L. Milled, Boston Nationals, and Arthur Fletcher. Philadelphia Nationals, were returned to the active lists of their clubs, following a season of professional inactivity in 1821. Both were on the voluntarily retired roster. Weldon Wyckoff was restored to the Boston Americans, trom which he “jumped” in 1916, fol- lowing his assignment to Minne- apolis. TENNIS LEAGUE TO MEET.
