Commission's Ruling Hits Ball Players Forfeit Rules
The National Baseball Commission led by President Hermann released key decisions in Cincinnati. Pitcher Corridon will see the Chicago Nationals pay $500 to Providence if Corridon reports fit, while Kissinger's bid for release from reservation is denied and he heads to Buffalo. The commission clarifies that in absence of a reserve clause a club may reserve a player unless a written promise he was not reserved exists. A new rule enforces all release agreements must be on the contract after Dec 15, with notices to be published in two papers biannually.
