Ravamp Draft Systam AH told. -56 players were drafted for a record total of $600,000 Monday by major league clubs in the biggest bargain basement binge in baseball history. Of this total, 45 were first-year players. And by the time the minors get through drafting the total reached 110 plavers and Sl, 178,000. 11 all came about because of organized baseball's re vamped draft system, which was designed to curb exces sive bonus spending for un tried talent. The current draft rule pro vides thai any first-year play er not promoted to the roster of the major league club which signed him must run Ihe draft gauntlet al prices of $12.(100 or $8,000. "That's all good and well," McHale said, "but the five first-year men we lost yester day represented some of Ihe best young ballplayers in our farm system and at least one year's work hv our scouting staff "The $40.(1110 we'll receive for these five players won't even come close to our ex pense for scouting and de veloping them this past sea son.

"We got the pitcher we wanted and we're all set now," said Yankee General Manager Roy Harney elatedly. "This is it - as far as major deals for us is concerned." Buzzy Bavasi was equally pleased for the Dodgers al though he said they probably will make more trades. "Our first need was a right-handed long ball hitter and we feel Skowron can be the man," he said. Possibly the happiest man of all about the deal was Yankee Manager Ralph Houk, who sees in the 26-ycar-old right-handed Williams another regular starter to go wilh Ralph Terry, Whitey Ford and Bill Stafford. Fits Into Plans "Williams fits into our plans perfectly," Houk de clared. "He's young, he can throw hard and he won 14 ANDY'S MIXKII I.KAGL'K SandbaBgrrs i.W-IOi 3. Dirk Fsr rell 4!R; Jeti 23-17 1.

On the heels of Monday's trade, there were reports lhat Skowron would move on quickly to the Kansas City A's for second baseman Jerry Lumpe, but Bavasi merely laughed at the thought. "We plan to platoon Skow ron with Ron Fairly," he said, "and that will help us maneu ver more. Last season they pitched too many left-handers against us. Now that we have Skowron, if something hap pens to Hillie Davis, Fairly can go to center field. And if we're forced to play Tommy Davis al third, we can put Fairly in left." Leaving the Yankees after nine seasons was something of a wrench for the 32-year-old Skowron although! it wasn't a complete shock. "Who was I traded to?" was his first question when he re ceived Ihe first call from a newspaperman Monday night. "I hate to go," Skowron said, "but that's baseball. I'll do the best I can for the Dod gers. That's the only way I know how to play." away (2-6i 2. Clayton Lewis S78. MONDAY NIGH T OWLS Chuck's Service & Repair (12-4) 0.
