Text | [reporting on the Arbitration Committee meeting of 12/7] The Board of Arbitration meanwhile took up the work of amending the National Agreement, but few important changes were made up to article VIII., which contains the $2,000 limit rule. The League representatives wanted this limit abrogated, but Phelps, of Louisville, made a determined battle for the old rule, on the ground that even if violated it had a certain value to the poorer clubs and set up a standard for the valuation of salaries. The discussion on the rule was animated and prolonged, but Phelps finally won his fight and the rule was allowed to stand. |
