Newspaper Page TextO o ( ) Furillo Cut By Dodgers; Shuns Offer Los Angeles - (ITD - Carl Furillo, veteran Los Angeles Dodger outitelder, today trad ed his bat for a fishing pole. Given an unconditional re lease from the youth-conscious world champions Tuesday, the sometimes unsung hero of the great Dodger teams of the 1950s said he would relax but still attempt to continue his baseball career. "I still feel I can help some club. I think I have another year or two left," the 38-year-old outfielder said. "But right now I have no offers. I think I'll just go fishing and keep myself in shape." Furillo promptly declared legal war on the Dodgers fol lowing his release Tuesday after E. J. (Buzzi) Bavasi, gen eral manager and vice presi. dent of the Dodgers, said no team in either major league would claim Furillo and that he was being released "be cause he can no longer do the job." Bavasi said Furillo turned down a chance to play for Spokane of the Pacific Coast league at the same $30,000 salary he received as a Dod ger. Furillo, whose lifetime bat ting average with the Dodgers is .300, has been troubled since spring training by a muscle injury in his right leg. He was chopped from the roster to make room for Frank Howard, $100,000 rook ie, called up from Spokane. A big source of irritation to Furillo was the fact the Dod gers did not give him the re lease when he couid have caught on with another club. He said he refused the Spo kane offer because it would interfere with his major league pension. American Grid Circuit Will Remove Limit- Dallas, Tex.-(UPD - Commis sioner Joe Foss announced to day that the new American Football league, plagued with two many players instead of too few, would remove the player limit for its initial training period this season. Most observers voiced the query when formation of the league was announced as to "where will It get its play ers?" "There are more qualified candidates," Foss said, "than our people had originally thought. We first set the play er limit at 60 per team, then expanded it to 70. And now have had to remove all Hm-" Its. Under the change, which Foss said was requested by team officials, some teams may take as many as 100 players to camp.
