[editorial matter] The most important piece of work accomplished [at the AA spring meeting], and which is worthy of special mention, was the adoption of the amendment by which reservation of players is recognized by and incorporated in the constitution of the Association independent of the National Agreement. The amendment was conceived by President Byrne and presented by him to the Association, which adopted it unanimously. … Mr. Byrne's idea appears to be to legalize reservation, to make it more binding upon the players, , whom he seeks to make a party thereto, and to devise a means of maintaining it in the event of a collapse of or withdrawal from the National Agreement.
