CHICAGO, Jan. 15 (U. P.).—Minnesota, which pulled the giantkilling act against hitherto unbeaten Indiana, has a chance at La-

In other games, Indiana moves over to Madison and tries to redeem itself against Wisconsin, which tried to stop Purdue Saturday, but finished up taking a 49-36 whipping. Northwestern, which licked Chicago, 44-28, goes against Ohio State, which finally captured its first Conference game in three starts by .defeating Illinois, 37-31. Iowa, loser to Michigan, .47-38, fights it out with Chicago for the cellar position. Each will be seeking its first Conference vidiery in four starts.

By ERNEST

In a sweeping decision which aimed at eliminating “misuse: of

—| working agreements in chain store

baseball as a camouflage for covering up players,” Landis: 1. Declared 91 players free agents, including Infielder Benny McCoy, Outfielder Roy Cullenbine and two other players on the Detroit roster, Lloyd Dietz and Steve Rachunek.

2. Directed Detroit or five other clubs which acted for Detroit to pay a total of $47,250 to 14 other piayers in lieu of free agency—a penalty tantamount to a fine.

3. Fined the Chicago Cubs $1000 and the St. uis Browns $500 for “contacting” two of the players made free agents. (McCoy and Cullenbine in the case of the Cubs, and McCoy in the case of the Browns.) 4, Ordered the Cleveland Indians to pay $2000 to Player Walter T. Carson who, Landis said, was ‘“covered up” by the Toledo American Association club for Cleveland. 5. Warned that henceforth all club officials and employees found to be involved in “the evils of common control of player dealings of two clubs in the same league, and perversion of working agreements,” would be placed on the ineligible list with maximum fines imposed on clubs involved. 6. Warned that similar action would be taken against league presidents and officials who knowingly co-operate in rules violations or negligently fail to investigate or report such violations to the commissioner.

Toledo Hard Hit

Of the 91 declared free agents, 87 were on the rosters of 15 minor league clubs which, Landis charged, engaged in “wholesale covering up” for Detroit. Hardest: hit under the ruling were the Toledo American Association club which was deprived of 10 players, Beaumont of the Texas

| League which lost 10, Ft. Worth of

the Texas League and Henderson of the East Texas League which lost nine each and Hot Springs of the Cotton State League which lost 22. The decision automoatically can-

celled the trade by which Detroit was to have sent McCoy and Pitcher

Athletics for Outfielder Wally Moses. The ‘deal made in December had

|been ordered held up by Landis

pending outcome of the investigation, which started last May. Former Indianapolis players who will benefit by the Landis ruling are:

George Archie, first baseman, now

| with Seattle, to receive $3000.

Don French, pitcher, ‘now with Boston Bees, to receive $2500. Lindsay Brown, infielder, now with Portland, to receive $1500. Pat McLaughlin, pitcher, declared free to sell services.

Charges Secret Dealings
