Salem I-W Chapter It's Grotcing Up 1
Hearty congratulations to the Salem Isaak Walton chapter which,
according to President Rex Sanf ord, has grown to the extent that two
meetings per month, instead of one, are now necessary to accomodate
the membership. Also, that fine new clubhouse is emblematic of: the
. way In which the chapter has sprouted. f 1
It was only a very few years ago that the outdoor and con
servation group switched Its name from "Banters and Anglers"
club to a Walton league chapter. We were present for the charter
rendering ceremony and at the time were disappointed over the
smallnesa of the turnout for it There were no more than 25 or 28
present.' :""- :-.?-.. ; . . -
But the aspiring stoud nonetheless went to work on bulldin
large and strong chapter, and has
meetings per menu are now a pleasant necessity , . j

Mt.-Hood ski enthusiasts are right proud of their new 'aerial

that possessed by Hoodo Bowlers at Santiam Pass who now have a
breathtaking attraction all their own, a 4000-foot chair lift -For
those who might think that skis are something that harbors clouds and
pours rain on you, a chair lift Is a lazy man's way of getting to the
top of a snow-covered mountain so that he can slide down the, thing

Ted Loder, Willamette university's lanky, sharpshootlng forward from
Milwaukie, cools his feet (above) in the wake of a torrid perform
ance this season which saw him crack the all-time WU point mark
for four seasons and, amazingly" enough, Ted did It in only three
seasons. Loder built his total to 1112 points, topping the S25 mark
ers which gave Bill Anton a record back In 1939. As Loder gives his
dogs a welcome soaking. Mentor John Lewis (left) studies some of
his star's scoring accomplishments. (McEwan-Statesman photo.) !

From reliable sources, it was
learned that . each faction pro
and anti Chandler - has lined p
five solid : otes to- block the other's
move. Twelve of the 18 votes are
required to elect a commissioner.
Only one thing can break the
hopeless deadlock and stir the
moguls to action in naming a man
to succeed Chandler when his
term expires April 30, 1952. That
is for J.-Edgar Hoover, a "dark
Horse candidate, to decide to ac
cept the position. ! v
A members of the four-man
screening committee, who declined
use of his name, said Hoover, chief
of the federal bureau of investiga
tion, had been, approached by club
owners but has declined "reluct-
I ' There still Is a chance he might
change his mind, the committee
man said. "I believe if he decided
to be a candidate. Hoover can. win
the unanimous consent of the club
owners. j
A stalematet would leave Chan
dler still in the driver's seat with
an option of either remaining in
office until the expiration of his
term or buying out his contract J
which still has 13 V4 months to go.
Separate meetings of ' the Na
tional and American leagues were
scheduled for j tomorrow where it
was expected a decision would be
reached to delay indefinitely the
naming of a commissioner to suc
ceed Chandler.. More time needed
for study of j possible candidates
will be the reason given. j
