[reporting on the meeting of the AA Directors 12/10] The Board also decided another important question. Deasley had made it a condition of his contract for ‘84 with the St. Louis Club that he should not be reserved for the season of ‘85, and was pressing that feature of his contract with a view of engaging himself to the New York Club, but the Board decided that the clause was an attempt to evade the requirements of the reserve rule and was therefore not legal.
