Writers association.
Chandler pictured . 70 million
American fans as baseball's "board
of directors' whose only concern
13 that, the game be played as "con
jciervliously, as hard and as fairly
mm possible.
"la the past wo monlhs I have

strife is up for a public airing, they
want to know all the facts. Un

fortunately, I have been able to
give them only arguments for the
defense; the full brief filed by the
plaintiff, has never been placed in
my hands.
"Bickering, dickering and horse-
trading are a traditional part of
the American scene. So, also is
fair play. And that is where, the
average American fan will have
his way. We must not let him
down.
Chandler compared baseball's
uncertain position with that in
1941.- -
"We will play baseball as long as
18 major, league clubs can field

The commissioner said baseball
had lived "because no official or
player is indispensable- But most
important, baseball will continue
to thrive because it belongs to the
people. -
Chandler spoke a few hours after
.the committee named to screen
' candidates for his job held its first
meeting. Lou Perini of the Boston
Braves said the group considered

No names were announced after
the 90-minute meeting of Del
Webb of the New York Yankees
Ellis Ryan of Cleveland and Per
ini. Phil Wrigley of the Chicago
Cubs, fourth committee member,
was absent due to illness.
"I'd say about 20 or 30 real top
grade names were left said Perini
It's my personal opinion that no
commissioner will be elected un
til Commissioner Chandler finishes
his term, or resigns.

Kennedy Kids Retain
Skating Pairs Crown
By Paul Wells
SEATTLE, Feb. 4-(;P-A new reign began today In the top-drawer
ranks of the national figure skaters, and only sheer grit prevented
another one from ending.
Dark-tressed Sonya Klopper, a 16-year-old from Brooklyn who
was all grace and rhythm, stood
head and shoulders over her field
to win the National Senior Ladies'
skating championship relinquished
a short time ago by Yvonne Sher
man, New York.
But where her victory came
with comparative ease, that of the
famed Kennedy kids was almost
halted by a pesky virus. For three
days, red-haired Peter Kennedy
had been bedfast with a virus in
fection that brought on a fever of
103 degrees.
Partly recovered but still weak,
he joined his sister, v Karol, last
night in defense of their National
senior pairs title. With sweat dot

Crucial Games
On Vik Slate
Two big games, capable of mak
ing or breaking the Salem Vikings
title hopes, are on schedule this
week for the Big-Six league lead
ing locals.
Harold Hauk's quintet, rein
forced by the return to action of
"Big Moe" Walling, take on the
Corvallis Spartans in a game in
the Villa here Tuesday night at 8
p. m. Then they'll rest until Friday
for a jaunt to Eugene for a return
engagement with the strong Dean
Parson-led Axemen.
Corvallis gave the Vikings a big
scare in the closing minutes of
their first meeting two weeks ago
The Salem five pulled out a 40-36
triumph after being tied with
Spartans with two minutes re
maining.
Salem had less trouble with TXi
gene in the encounter hefe, win
ning 56-37. But the presence of
Dean Parson, far-and-away the
area's big score of the season, sets
up a heavy threat to the Viking's
clean record in league play. The
locals kept Parson to 18 points in
the Villa, one of his coldest nights
of the season. In a recent mix at
Cottage Grove, the big center
bucketed 48 points to lead the
Axemen to victory.
Eugene will warm up for its
Friday night mix with the Vik
ings with a short jaunt Tuesday
night to Junction City. Only other
Big-Sixer scheduling action Tues
day is Springfield which also
steps outside the league to take
on St. Mary's.
Cage business will be a little
racier Friday night when all lea
gue teams whip back into action.
Albany's hapless Bulldogs host
Sweet Home; Corvallis journeys
to Lebanon; Springfield takes on
Junction City; and the Lava Bears
face Lakeview at Bend. An en
counter between Burns and Bend
will furnish the only Saturday
night action.
Vik Matmen Meet
Newberg Today
Hank Juran's Salem high school
wrestling team will travel to New
berg for return matches today.
The Viking matmen will be seek
ing their eighth straight victory
of the season in th Newberg ring.
In matches three weeks ago
against the Newberg grapplers,
the Vikings scored a 28-17 tri
umph. On August 1st each year Switz
erland celebrates its "Confedera
tion Day." Expert mountaineers
make their way to peaks and set
off fireworks displays and bon
fires. - - By Alan Mover
