Along with the franchise and players went a $325,000 indebtedness. Every effort will be made to find a purchaser for the Boston dub If no buyer is found the league will operate the club. The franchise will not be moved away from Boston. where it has been continuously since 1576. The Braves' franchise was declared forfeited by a unanimous vote of seven club owners (Boston not voting) because of the failure of the club to fulfill its contractual obligations over an extended period of time. “This is a friendly forfeiture." explained Ford Frick, president of the National league. “Every effort will be made to protect the stockholders as far as possible. It is now possible to sell the club with a clean bill of health, defining all the obligations which tne purchaser must assume. One of the big drawbacks heretofore was the unforeseen lawsuits and other complications that might beset a purchaser." The value of the Braves’ franchise and players is conservatively set at $325,000, enough to pay off all debts. If tne club is sold for that figure the present stockholders would be left holding the bag. Charles F. Adams, vicepresident and majority stockholder, has sunk about $200,000 into the club. Adams said he did not plan to make a bid for the club. “I made one mistake in getting into the club,” he said, “and I don’t plan to make another. Whatever steps the league takes will be satisfactory to me. We invited

H., leading minor stockholder, is not likely to bid for the dub after yesterday’s action. It had been thought that he would head a New England syndicate to attempt to purchase the club, but when he walked out of the meeting he apparently lost all interest in making a bid for control of the Braves. "The National league is now in a position to consider proposals in writing for the purchase of the Boston franchise and players on or before the annual meeting in Chicago Bee. 10." announced Frick. "At this time no definite proposals have been submitted." o Dggk?
