The Cleveland Herald says: “There seems to be but a misty understanding of the chief point in the reserve rule—the period covered in its holding of a player to the club that reserves him—on the part of both the public and players. The rule is clear on this point: Once reserved and failing to join his club, the player is not released from his obligation. It continued in force from year to year, until the club is either expelled or dies of the player is released from his ties under the rule. A lapse from play for ten years has no effect.
