As an outgrowth of it, & rule may be passed making It-compulsory for a major league club to secure waivers from every other team In both big leagues before let ting out & player to the minors. The pres ent law proyides that an athlete who ha been under itraet (8 m major league bunch for mord thati or@ year can be let out It watbers ‘re obtathéd from all clubs In his league. In the case of a player drafted or purchased within a year waivers must b asked for and obtained from botl major leagues, President Comiskey . of . the Sox, who would net have been opposed to landing Howard, brought up the point yesterday in the presence of Ban Johnson, saying it was unfair, both to the player and to the clubs of the rival leagues, to send any ath- Jete to the minors when he could hold down & Job In a big league and draw w big league salary. President Johnson cited the cases of Isbell and Davis, whom Comiskey recently released, and asked him why a rule of the kind he had in mind wouldn't have blocked his plans to re- lease these men and thus have prevented them from doing as they pleased, Commy thought this over a while and then suggested that & club’ of the American league ahould not Ba' tequired to get walvers from the other fifteen clubs If it Intended to release a man unconditionally 1f, on the other hand it (htended to send him to some minor league team, it should be compelled to get walvers from every- body In both major organizations.

Swanson an ineligible freshman, is one of the speed- fest runners the university has -possessed in several years, and his presence at the Omaha contest will mean much te the Corn- huskers in the short dashes. Nebraska and Ames are now tied for the champlonship of the northern haif of the Missouri Valley Basket Ball league. By defeating Drake Monday night, 13 te 11, the Aggles made their record equal to that of the Cornhuskers. A series of three | games will be played between Ames and Nebraska to determine which of the teams | shall meet Kansas, the winners of the title in the southern section. Manager Kager has written Comch Wil- llams of Ames requesting that the games be played either in Lincoln or Omaha next week. It is thought that the Aggle coach will consent to coming to Nebraska for the games. If he does, the series will be booked for elther tiils city or Omaha. Several letters have come to the local manager asking that the series be played In the Nebraska metropolls, Manager Eager 18 not yet decided whether he will take the ames there, though, The Nebraska Ath- letic boatd does not object, however, and if Ames expresses a preference for & neutral floor, the games will go to Omaha.
