The owners are expected to tighten restrictions on the participation of their players in winter ball unless the Caribbean leagues agree to modify their present set»P- . / r American and National League moguls hold separate meetings at the Hotel Commodore and then meet in joint session later in the day with commissioner Ford Frick presiding. Frick and minor league czar George Trautman met over the weekend with officials of the Caribbean Confederation and the south-of-the-border officials stated their side of the case. (Major league players representatives, .meeting in Cleveland prior to the all-star game, agreed to ask for an easing of presort restrictions on winter baseball. They asked for the right to negotiate directly with the clubs in Cuba, Venezuela, Pan ama, (Mexico and Puerto Rico. Last winter three regulars fr.mii each major league club ißere permitted to jilay 60 these countries and their signing had to be transacted through their respective teams. thief opposition to the Caribbean Play stems from the desire of the moguls to have their players on hand for spring training - which comes at the end of the Latin Amoriean apjreon and the start of the Caribbean world aeries playoff. This is another matter the owners will act on. They want to get he players into oamp earlier than he present (March 1 deadline and the players are against this. A nine-man committee, headed by Branch Rickey of the Pittsburgh Pirates, has drawn up a liberalized drait code. Radical changes will be considered in the regulations concerning the seleciou of minor league talent. The most sweeping change suggested would permit the drafting if three players from any one club in class A or higher. Presently, only one player ®a be drafted -rom each club. eXt%pt those clasdflod os "unrestrictw."

Four Seasoned Vets In PGA Semi-Finals ST. PAUL, Minn. (INS) — Four seasoned veterans battle it out in the semi-finals of the Professional Golfers Association tournament today with the spotlight centered on temperamental Tommy Bolt, The hqt-tempered Houston, Tex., golfer threw one of his worst tantrums in years Sunday because the fans favored his opponent, popular Sam Snead, then won the gallery to his side with a courageous uphill battle that ended in victory on the 39th hole. Today, he will try to beat the man whom he can thank for still being in the tourney, brawny Chick Harbert of Detroit, who won a .thrilling 1-up match Sunday from Jerry Barber of La Canada, Calif. It was Harbert who persuaded Bolt to finish his match with Snead when the tempestuous Texan vowed in the locker room after the first 18 holes that he would not continue. The match today pits Dr.-Cary Mlddlecoff of Memphis, Tenn., against another Detroiter, the unspectacular but steady defending PGA champion, Walter Burkemo of Detroit. Burkemo scored a surprisingly easy 5 and 4 victory over Roberto

de Vicenzo of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Middlecoff conquered Shelly Mayfield of Chicopee, Mass.. 3 and 1, in the other quarter-final matches. The match-of-the-day, however, was the Bolt-Snead duel, a nip-and-tuck affair all the way which was punctuated during the first 18 holes by several examples of why Bolt is known as a temperamental. The fiery Texan slammed a club to the ground when he partially missed a wedge shot on the 15th hole and one the 18th< when his No. 4 wood shot rolled a few feet off the green, he pounded the club on thß ground until it broke. Then, after chipping to within six feet of the cup. Bolt missed the putt and a tew spectators cheered, because it give Snead a 1-up lead. Bolt, incensed at the gallery and himself, shouted:y "The only people on my side are. my wife and my caddy. I don’t care it I ever play in this town again.” In the locker room during a rest period, he continued to fume and vowed that he would not return to the course for his second 18 holes. But Harbert and his wife convinced him to continue. It was a different Bolt the second 18. He and Snead, three-time winner of the event, ribbed each other throughout the remainder of play and Bolt held his temper even when he fell two behind on the 30th hole.
