TE THIRTEEJJ 0 y Friday, Mevemker 29, 1457 MEDFOP SpOrf OSCAR FRALEY Parade lS3r Wri,er V irlit " United Pre fAUOU MAUB o --r New York (W Major league basketball expansion to the West Coast still is two or three years away. National Basketball asso ciation President Maurice Podo- ' loff said today, but is as certain as the move just made by big league baseball. The next additions in the NBA will be Chicago, Baltimore anal Pittsburgh as the league works toward an eventual 15 to 18 teams in three separate divi sions. Podoloff thinks it probable that Chicago will be in next season. Talent is no problem but cities which have large enough playing arenas are the big stumbling block. "That's the major problem on the West Coast," Podoloff ex plains. "The Cow Palace in San Francisco is adequate but we have to wait for buildings in Los Angeles and Portland. The diffi- rCulty is that they aren't off the ground yet." ' (J wo a Minimum The little Napoleon of pro basketball figures that the West Coast can get into the pro bas ketball race when it comes up with a second adequate build ing. "We can start with two as a minimum on the West Coast," he says in his staccato voice. "But actually they geed four or five teams to compose their own divi sion. Then we can have Eastern, Midwestern and Western divi sions. The grand scheme, when such ' a setup finally is evolved, would accent local rivalries and cut ; down on intersectional travel. ; There would be a certain amount : of intersectional play under the three-division plan but the main accent would be on intra-section-" al rivalries. G "This is a national sport just as much as pro football and ; baseball," Podoloff explains. ; "There are 20 cities with a popu ' lation of more than 500,000 peo : pie and we plan to move in on most of them." From a shaky beginning, pro basketball has become a sure ; fire proposition and the general ; reconstruction of what will even ; tually be a strong three-division circuit was started this season BTEINER'S SCORE LONGEST Chicago (IP) The longest scoring play produced by a Big Ten team during the 1957 foot ball season was Ron Steiner's 94 yard run with, an intercepted pass for Wisconsin against West Vieginia. when the Rochester and Fort Wayne franchises were moved to Detroit and Cincinnati.

Considering Ambassador Group Washington (IP) The United States is studying a proposal' to create a standing group of al lied ambassadors in Washington to improve consulations among North Atlantic Treaty allies, in formed sources said today. Some thought also is being given to expanding- the group later to include ambassadors of nations in the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO), Baghdad Pact and Organization of American States (OSA). This would serve to link the several Free World alliances loosely so each will know more about the other's avtivities. The ideas are among many be ing considered by the administra tion for the scheduled North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) meeting in Paris Dec. 16-18. President Eisenhower's illness for a time cast a cloud over the meeting which was planned as a chief-of-state gathering to seek ways to strengthen allied scien tific and military cooperating. The White House and state de partment at first said the Presi dent's illness apparently ruled out his attendance. But the White House Thursday left the door open in view of the Chief Executive's apparent swift re covery. Presidential Press Secretary James Hagerty said the Presi dent's doctors "will decide later" whether he can make the trip. He said if Eisenhower does not go Vice President Richard M. Nixon will go in his place. The NATO allies agreed un animously Thursday to go head with the meeting in either case.
