Nashville was the second choice, while consideration alse wag given to West Baden, Ind The constifution of the association provides, however, that the annual meeting ehall be held in a city in which therefis a minor league club, but this was amended so that the imeeung coyld be held in Chicago in conjunction with the majors. Secretary John H. Farrell and President M. H. Sexton were author- ized to select the city for the 1928 convention and they assured Com- missioner Landis that his wishes that a meeting of the minors be held along with the majors would be respected. Condemn Increased Limit. The National Association adopted resolutions condemning the plan of the majors to increase the player Himit from forty ta fifty. The fifty player limit wéuld permit each league ciub to have at least twenty- five men in the minor leagues 'under option. This, the minor leaguers contend, would practically give the majors control of the player market. The major leagues, under the major- minor agreement, which hi to run, are allowed to have players in the minors under option Secretary I'grrell from $7,500 to $10,000 was defeated. With the departure of the major leaguers today, all talk of further sales at record breaking prices vanish- ed.

President Tierney of the Western and Three I leagues caused a sur- prise among the Western League club owners when he announced his resig- nation at a special meting, although his term of office was not to expire for at least another term. President Tierneéy informed the club owners that he was disgusted with factional rows and desired to step out.
