Changes in Bonus Rule Suggested ' Milwaukee. Wis. (U.R) A recommendation to change the major league baseball bonus rule was made Monday by player representatives of both leagues on eve of the annual All-Star game. The players went on record favored a limit of two bonus players from each dub who would not count in the present roster limit of 25. Teams now can sign an unrestricted number of players who are paid more than a $4,000 bonus, but they must be retained on the major league roster for two years. Oust Veterans Player representatives of the American and National leagues felt that such bonus players were taking the place of men who should be in the big leagues, but who were sent down to make room for the bonus "kids." 'Also recommended were rules to allow the players unrestrict ed winter league play for one year, and to provide that play ers may be invited, but not re quired, to report prior to March 1. The present rule bans spring practice before that date. Robert Feller Chosen - National League players re elected Robin Roberts of the Philadelphia Phillies as player representative for two years and named Ted Klauszewski of Cin cinnati as his alternate. Ameri can League representative for the same period will be Bob Feller, Cleveland pitcher, with Washington infielder Eddie Yost as his alternate. Roberts and Ralph Kiner of Cleveland were named to the pension committee with Feller and Kluszewski as alternates. A f representative, of the retirement corporation was scheduled to suggest a new pension plan, but he reported that a study "of the old pension plan was not yet complete.

IBevosiapIPadsS-i; SoDofis Tiroum SeattDe By MILES K. BENEDICT United Press Sports Writer Last night's Pacific Coast League games apparently prove that a good old pitcher given proper rest and care can beat a good young pitcher on any given night say July 11, 1955. The veterans Red Adams (7-4) of Portland and Earl Harrist (3-6) of Sacramento quieted the bats of the front running San Diego Padres and second-place Seattle Rainiers last night with hardly a bad scare. Beavers Win 6-1. Adams, 34 years young, faced his junior Lloyd Dickey, 25, and came out on top by a 61 count over San Diego. Harrist, 35, with six days rest, bested 23-year-old Johnny Oldham 5-2 in Sacramento and brought the Solons out of the loop cellar after 38 long days. Seattle's candidates, who have played second fiddle to San Diego since June 1, missed an opportunity to cut the Padres' lead to a single game while the rest of the clubs, which were not scheduled, picked up a half game on the league leaders. San Francisco, 15Vb games off the pace, backed into eighth place and trailed the Solons by a half game. Adams not only scattered nine San Diego hits, he also collected a double and a single in the Beavers' 13-hit barrage and scored twice.
