Chandler Advocates One Head
For Baseball of All Kinds
Dallas, Texas, Jan. 21 VP) Commissioner A. B. (Happy) Chand
ler says all baseball, including even the amateurs, should be under
one head. He also reveals that negro diamond leaders have
discussed the Question of reor-'
ganizing their leagues on a basis
that would permit their entry
into organized baseball.
Here to speak at a sports
achievement banquet, the com
missioner at a press conference,
disclosed that the presidents of
the two negro leagues had con
ferred with him, President Ford
Frick of the national league and
President Will Harridge of the
American league.
Chandler said these confer
ences were at the request of the
negro league presidents and his
revelation came in reply to a
question regarding the signing
of Jackie Robinson, a negro, to
a Monereal International league,
contract.
Chandler said he was asked
if he also would be commis
sioner for the negro leagues. "I
told them to get their house in
order then come to baseball with
a petition for recognition,"
Chandler declared. "The negro
leagues favor keeping their own
boys and with these leagues on
a sound basis, with a contract
like the one we use, they ex
pect those boys to want to stay
in their own class. I see no rea
son why the negro leagues can
not become a part of organized
baseball with the commissioner
serving them as he does other
leagues."

Thirty seven rounds of boxing
scheduled for next Wednesday
night at the armory means a lot
of scrapping and in order to keep
the show from running past the
hour of midnight, the Veterans
of Foreign Wars, sponsors of the
card, have fixed the starting
time at 8 o clock. Leo Edwards
has been named referee for the
program which signalizes the
return of professional boxing to
the community.
Matchmaker Harry Plant be
lieves he has a natural in the
Duane Hoag-Chico Sanchez 10
round main event. The boys will
weigh in at 127 pounds and are
capable of swinging the maxi
mum amount of leather over the
10-round distance. Their per
formance in Portland recently
kept the crowd in an uproar
from start to finish.
The six round semi-final will
bring together Ernesto Lopez,
welterweight stable-mate of San
chez, and Kelly Jackson, Port
land negro. Lopez has appeared
as a main eventer in Seattle and
Spokane. Jackson has racked up
10 straight wins and believes
Lopez will be his 11th victim.
Plant believes Jack Von is
one of the hardest hitting fight
ers to be seen in these parts in
years, one who can give Port
land's Bob Jones an interesting
evening.
The first three preliminaries
will feature amateur boxers
who are fighting for the "March
of Dimes" fund.

Mt. Hood Area
To Be Boosted
Relieving a long felt need for
additional housing, restaurants,
amusement centers and every
thing tourists and regular cus
tomers might expect in the area
which has Mt. Hood as the cen
ter, a non-profit organization,
known as Oregon's Mt. Hood,
Inc., has been formed. Officers
and members of the board of
trustees have been selected from
Portfand, as well as from cities
which are primarily interested
in the development of the Mt.
Hood country as a winter and
summer attraction.
The housing committee, un
der the chairmanship of Hollis
Johnston, Portland architect, is
making a survey to determine
what can be done toward pro
viding more overnight accom
modations. A corporation to
build and operate commercial
facilities " is being proposed.
These include an amusement
center, including ice arena,
winter and summer, hockey
arena, convention hall, restau
rants and other facilities neces
sary to attract tourists to the
area.
Persons who visit the Mt.
Hood area, especially during
the winter season, have been
hard pressed to find either
housing or restaurant facilities
and Oregon's Mt. Hood, Inc.,
is primarily interested in over
coming this shortage as well as
providing an attractive area for
tourists who are expected to
visit the district in increasing
numbers when it is learned
they can be accommodated.
The organization is located in
the Lewis building, Portland,
with James I. Himes as execu
tive secretary.
