B. Chandler j supported Rickey To keep professional clubs from snatching promising youngsters out , ot school, it has been ordered th mJ no player be signed to a contract 1 before he graduates from highl school The Pittsburgh Pirates were accused of skirting around „ this one. and St. Louis Cardinal president Fred Balkh said he will file a formal protest with Chandler. The spring training regulation cropped' h p when Chandler -warn- 1 ed that clubs violating it faced "stiff penalties ” The New York Yankees replied that the rommi* stoner couldn't mean them The Yanks admitted they had sine pla/ 1 era working as Instructors a’ a screening camp for minor league players at Phoenix, but insisted these men were not "in training Chandler eliminated those doubts when he said the Instructor* were violating the rule The Yanks sent the nun home The Giants follow • d suit The Pirates troubles started with the algnlne of. law Angeles prep school star Paul Pettit for »l« Several other major league clubs,< were- seeking the boy but ran Into a gimmick I- was this- P< ttlt already signed to an esclusTve CiifßTM-’ by a movie producer.
