" O'Malley again denying that the Dodgers are about to leave Brooklyn for the West Coast, spoke on . the subject after it was announced that Manager Walt Alston was signed for the 1955 season. The Brooklyn prexy said that there were two ways .for the West Coast to enter the major league orbit. "First," he said, "it is up to the Coast to show it can oper ate economically and artistical ly on a plane to justify a third major league. - Second, should the Pacific Coast league open its territory to the majors it is pos sible that two or four major league clubs couM operate suc cessfully on the Coast in 10-team leagues." ;,.' . .. . Patterson Pays Off Wager To Langlie Olympia U.R) Oregon's Gov. Paul Patterson paid off a wager to Washington's Gov. Ar thur B. Langlie today two huge turkeys because Washington had a better forest fire record in 1954 than did Oregon. The wager was made last June when Gov. Patterson challenged Gov. Langlie that Oregon would have fewer man-caused forest fires. Langlie accepted but said Oregon had only two-thirds the population of Washington and the odds favored Patterson. - Langlie countered with a chal lenge based on the number of acres protected by each state forestry department and burned by fires during 1954. Washington won both bets, with 516 man-caused forest fires against Oregon's 660, and Wash ington had ' fewer acres lost, 1,311 to Oregon's 2,253. The Hebrides off . the west coast of .
