The rule means that a team is limited to nine veterans, or players with three years pro fessional experience or more, and must carry at least two rookies, or first-year men. The balance of the roster will be made up of limited service play ers who fall between the rookie and veteran classifications. The directors at their meeting Wednesday also left intact the rule by which a player-manager is counted as a player.

In other action at Wednes day's annual spring meeting, the directors revised basketball schedules and re-established spring cage training. The group decided to organize a three man committee whose purpose it will be to find out as much as possible about the ac tivities of alumni and booster clubs of PCC institutions. Earlier Decision The committee set-up followed an earlier decision to hire a staff of assistants to aid Com missioner Victor Schmidt in in vestigating the "growing num ber of code violations." It was announced that the con ference will be given power to declare athletes permanently in eligible if it is found they re ceive money or gifts for playing or if it is proved they have bar gained for their services. H. P. (Dick) Everest, confer ence spokesman from the Uni versity of Washington, said that if information about the booster clubs is lacking, means will be provided, to force the organiza tions to provide more. 27 Cag Games If the clubs are reluctant to give more information, Everest said that schools might be asked by the conference to withhold Standings COAST LEAGUE W. 45 ...42 San Diego Hollywood Oaklana an Seattle - 34 Los Angelei 33 San Francisco 30 Portland 28 Sacramento 28 AMERICAN LEAGUE W.

Marion Real Team Leader From Start By MILTON RICHMAN New York-(U.R) Although he didn't plan or want it that way, likeable Marty Marion became the real "leader" of the St. Louis Browns the moment he joined them this spring . The majority of St. Louis play ers admired Marion as ardently as they disliked the iron-fisted Rogers Hornsby. They came to Marty with all their problems, both baseball and domestic. Marion, who want ed no part of being "boss" of any kind, tried to discourage the practice but his popularity only increased. The players bombarded him with every type of question. Nvr Too Busy Marion never was too busy to answer their questions although they ranged from "what did Stan Musial do when he got into a slump?" to "do you know of a good formula I can feed my new baby?" . During infield practice, the Brownie players not involved would interrupt their chores to marvel over Marion's graceful movements at shortstop. "Ballplayers don't stop to watch many other ball players, pitcher Ned Garver once observ ed. "They stop to watch Williams and DiMaggio hit . . . and they also stop to watch Marty field. BliTd In Leading As manager of the Cardinals in 1951, Marion believed in leading his players rather than driving them. "I never had any trouble with the boys," he said, "we got along just fine together and I still think we did well to finish in third place." Hornsby believed the complete opposite from Marion. He insist ed that his players eat, sleeo and breathe baseball every minute of the day and night. He never car ed if he shamed them in front of a crowd, either. Junior Golf Classes Open Weekly junior golf classes at Rogue Valley Country club will get under way this Friday and are planned each Friday through the summer, Club Pro AI Wil liams said. ' Periodic tournaments will be part of the program, Williams reported. Classes for boys nine through 12 years of age are set for 8:30 a.m. on Fridays, sessions for girls under junior high age for 9:30 a.m. and classes for boys 13 through 17 from 10:30 through 11:30 a.m. " Urness Assigned To Eastern Club The Dalles (U.R) Eddie Urness, 18-year-old The Dalles pitcher, signed by the Boston Red Sox, will report to Albany of the Class 'A' Eastern league. Urness, who led The Dalles to third place in this year's state high school tourney, was be lieved to have received at least $50,000 and possibly more - for signing.

(International Soundphoto) Completion of Canal Will Speed Russian Submarines London U.R) With the opening, of the Volga-Don canal, now near completion, Russian submarines will be able to pass through central Russia from the Baltic and the White Sea to the Black Sea in the south. The latest number of the au thoritative Communist party pariodical Bolshevik disclosed that the 63-mile-long canal will be able to carry ships much larg er than was originally believed here. It said ships with a net cargo charge of 2,000 tons will be used to transport grain and coal through the canal. Passenger ships more than 100 yards long with 500 "soft" seats will pass through the canal on regular trips from Moscow to Rostov-on-the-Don, the Black Sea summer resorts and back, the periodical said. . Experts here said the figures indicated that all but the larg est types of submarines will be able to pass through the canal. The canal stretches from Kras noarmelsk, a town on the Volga below Stalingrad, to the town of Kalach on the Don. Ships coming from the Volga will cross the heights that divide the two rivers by climbing a 45-yard "ladder" made of nine locks, then descend to the Don level through four other locks. According to the Soviet press, the canal itself is already com pleted and the Don waters are gradually filling the gigantic 140-mile-long Tsimlanskoye res ervoir at the Don end of the route. The stategic importance of the canal, experts said, consists in enabling the Russians to move their submarines from their ship yards in the north to the Black Sea without making the long journey around Europe. It will ensure complete secrecy about the disposition of the Soviet sub marine forces and the possibility of concentrating them in one place. The value of the canal for simi lar operations in war-time is dis puted by the. experts, since it would be highly vulnerable to air attacks. The canal will join the 18,000 miles of navigable . rivers and canals of the Volga and the northwestern " water transport system with the Black Sea. It will enable the transport of bul ky cargoes, such as timber, coal and grain, to be switched from the overloaded Soviet railways to the rivers. Donetz, coal, metals and ores, North Caucasian grain, tinned and fresh fruit will go up the Volga. Down the Volga (or from the Caspian Sea through the Vol ga) and to the Black Sea will go timber, chemicals and oil. In the north, the Volga Basin linked with Leningrad and the Baltic with the old Marjinski system of canals. The network of canals links the Volga with the White Sea. In addition, Leningrad is link ed with the White Sea by the White Sea-Baltic canal. The center of this huge river transport system is Moscow, now christened by the Soviet press the port of the five seas." Oak Grove School District Election Set Oak Grove Oak Grove school district No. 69 will hold its annual meeting for election of a school board director and other business on Monday,1 June 16, at 8 p. m. Polls will open following nom (nations for the director post, George Kellington's candidacy has been annunced and Wallace Brill has been mentioned as a candidate. The term of Loyal McCay expires. The office term is three years. The meeting will be in the eighth grade room at the school Chances Good To Insure Support At Present Level Washington (U.R) Bi-par tisan support developed among House farm leaders Thursday for legislation to Insure that farm support prices will remain at their present high levels no matter who wins the fall elec tions. Chances looked good for House approval of some legis lation of that kind before Con gress adjourns. But the move appeared likely to encounter strong Senate opposition. At stake are government price props for wheat, corn, cotton, peanuts and rice. They can range from 75 to 90 per cent of parity under a so-called "sliding scale" which went Into force in 1951. Secretary of Agriculture Charles F. Brannan, advocate of high supports, this year pegged them at the highest level per mitted. But as the law now stands, the administration which comes In next year--be 'it Re publican or Democratic could decide otherwise and lower sup ports to 75 per cent of parity. House moves to suspend the flexible system and make high supports mandatory developed on two fronts Wednesday: 1. The House Banking com mittee by an overwhelming vote tacked onto a bill to extend price-wage-rent controls a rider that would require supports kept at 90 per cent of parity next year. The rider is not con tained in the controls bill under debate in the Senate. 2. The House Agriculture committee rushed hearings ort a bill that would require supports kept at 90 per cent of parity through 1955. The Senate Agri culture committee after hearings failed to approve a variety of similar propooals.
