Thu clause It s used In baseball as well as pro football contracts- says a player can't sign with an other club until he Is given a written release. The Red.skms. Ruths trom argued, wouldn't give him this release. But Nauonal Football league Com missioner Bert Bell, in a M-page deposition, said many players had gone over to the All-America con ference without bothering to get a formal release. Furthermore, Bell contradicted earlier testimony by Ruttutrom in which he had said he had appealed to the commissioner. Bell said he hadn't. It he had. Bell said, he would have made the Redskins take Ruthstrom back or make him a free agent. George Preston Marshall, Red skin owner, told the Jury that Ruth strom was a "bitter disappointment" to the team. He repeatedly broke training, Marshall said, and never lived up to the standards the Red skins had set up. Judge Pine. In handing down a directed verdict, said he thought the caje boiled down to this: 1. Was it a legal contract? 3. Did the plaintiff. Ruthstrom, fulfill his part of the contract? 3. It he was dissatisfied, why didnt he file a proper appeal to the commissioner? He then directed that Ruthstrom pay up the $241.80. ND Players Join Yanks 1 MIAMI. Fla..
