Johuson _Iburg and LANDIS HANDS DOWN SEVERAL DECISIONS Three Players Are Reinstated and Six Turned Down Chicago, March 11.--Three players reinstated to the eligible roll of major league club; four applications denied; two men consigned to the ineligible list; a draft on the world's champion New York Glants for $1764, payable within ten days, and the abstract rul- ing that signed contracts between clubs and players are not set aside by prior verbal agreements—those were decisions handed yesterday by Com- missioner Landis, supreme chief of organized baseball. Enforceable Instrument Written into the awards in the ad- monition to both players and clubs that a Dbaseball contract is an en- forceable instrument which signatory parties are bound to execute in the utmost good faith. Six players left in the group must charge their plight to out- law practices while under contract with varlous clubs, the commissione: aid, and:-may be absolved only by one full year's dissocietion from baseball.” They are William B. Haeff- ner, Pittsburgh Nationals; Ray Dem- mitt, St. Louis Americans and D. J. Hickman, “James H. Caton, Norman Plitt and George W, Dumont, Brook- lyn Natlonals. All are taken to task for having been connected in 1921 with “a team haboring and playing against ineligibles.” Hickman's penalty came for his ‘ailure to report to the Toledo club agt season under the assignment of Brookltyn. Demmitt, Haeffner Caton played “with an industrial concern operating a ball team' while under voluntary retirement, it was stated. DPlitt and Dumont were censured for violation of reserve ob- ligations. Howard Burkett Case A Dbill for $1764 was presented to the New York National league club for the “improper transfer” of.How- ird Burkett to the Nerfolk club. Birmingham bought DBurkett from Norfolk following his assignment to the Virginians by the champions and turned the amount over to the big leaguers. Inasmuch as the Giants had no claim upon the player following his acceptance by Norfolk, the pur- e mohey must be turned over to Burkett “within 10 days” the com- nissioner ruled. James C. Garton, given to Norfolk under similar circumstances’ was de- clared a free agent, and may not be under contract for 1922 to either Norfolk or New York. John Wieneke, assigned to Buffalo for 1922 by the Chicago Americans, who sought his unconditional re- epse on the ground that he was nromised {t outside his contract, in the event of his failure to make the White Sox regulars, was denied his dlta. The agreement beyond the stipulations of the signed contract was “at variance with human ex- perience” in the view of Judge Landis, Wieneke must play either vith DBuffalo or go to the ineligible itst. ineligible Wyckoff to Red Sox JPrank [.. Miller, Boston Nationals, ind Arthur Fleteher, Philadelphia Nationals we returned to the ac- tive lists af their clubs following a season of professional ingctivity in 1921, Both were on the voluntarily vetired roster.
