JORDAN CHICAGO, July 23 OP) That old argument concerning the worth of a class AA player to a major league team is he -worth $7,500 or $15,000 or some figure in between in the annual draft may be officially thrashed out here today. Clarence B. (Pants) Rowland plans to be very vociferous on that subject at the sessions of major and minor league com mittees. Possible revisions in the major-minor league agree ment are the official topics. Rowland. Dresident of the Pa cific Coast league and a mem ber of the minor league commit tee, plans to push that point hardest when the group works on possible cnanges in tne old code. "The majors draft our ball players when they have reach ed their peak at $7,500," Row land said today. "They're worth more than that to us. Not only that, but if it wasn't for the draft regulations, our clubs could sell their contracts to major league teams for a lot more. The draft price should be doubled. Aside from Rowlands pro ject, the only other business on the agenda that members of either the major or minor league committees would discuss was possible legislation for insuring tne integrity ot minor league territorial rights.
