Minors Stand Firm Against Major Draft Demands
Delegates at the twenty first National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues meeting in Buffalo reject any major change to the elected Player Title and resist lowering draft barriers. They plan to debate the issue further in New York and keep existing life time terms while seeking a new fundamental law to resolve disputes in organized baseball. The arbitration board was chosen and fines for rule violations were increased. Louisville won next year’s convention with 21 votes to 4 for Hamilton Ontario and 1 for San Francisco.
