Indicating that the committee of which he is a member, probably will have nothing delaiite to re port, Perini said that "We're meet ing to see if we are going about the matter in the same way." Earlier, he said that a successor to A. B. Chandler, the incumbent commissioner, probably will not be named until Chandler's con tract, calling for $65,000 a year, expires in April, 1952. I have plenty of names, but no personal candidates," said Perini. "I was asked at our league meet ing if I had any report to make, and I said no." It is quite possible that con siderable time will elapse after Chandler's contract expires before a new commissioner is named, said the Braves' president. "In the interim baseball would be effi ciently run by the league presi dents. "There is a possibility, of course, that the next commissioner will be chosen at the joint meeting in MOUNTAINEERS WIN LA GRANDE, Feb. 3-P)-East-ern Oregon made a clean sweep of a two-game basketball series with Northern Idaho tonight, winning 91-69.
