Pi Rose Bowl Fever Hits Bums in Attempts to Use Stadium for Games Los Angeles '1? The scent of roses was as strong as ever for the Los Angeles Dodgers follow ing the failure of the Coliseum commission to agree upon a deal that would have given the Na tional league club the use of the 105,000 seat stadium virtually rent-free. The Dodgers already were dickering for use of the Rose Bowl in 1953 and 1959 and pre sumably will go ahead with ne gotiations with the City of Pasa dena, baring a sudden change of heart by members of the Coliseum commission that would make use of that arena more attractive. The commission, in a special session Friday, deadlocked 4-4 on a proposal to let the Dodgers use the Coliseum for two years, until they have stadium of their own. Instead of rent, ac cording to the proposal by Presi dent Jim Smith of the Coliseum commission, the Dodgers would guarantee the stadium $350,000 in income from concessions. Proposal "Unfair" Opponents of Smith's proposal said it wouldn't be fair to other lessees, including the Los An geles Rams, UCLA and USC football teams, who pay 10 per cent of the gate as rent. Then, too, supervisors Burton Chace and Warren Dorn argued, the Coliesum would be unfair to act now, since the city of Pasa dena already is dickering with Dodger President Walter O'Mal ley for the Rose Bowl. Supervisor Kenneth H a h n made the motion that the Smith proposal be adopted, making two concessions in the process. He consented to go along with Don ald P. Locker to amend the Smith proposal so there would be no consideration of beer sales in the Coliseum, and to insure the stadium remain in the hands of the management as presently constituted. Hahn, G. E. Kenzie, Locker and Smith voted for the pro posal. Chace, Dorn, Mrs. Harold C. Morton and Dr. Virling Ker sey opposed it. William Nicholas, Coliseum manager, said the commission could bring up the matter at BOWLING KIWANIS JUNIOR HIGH LEAGUE The Kiwanis Junior High league rolled their Christina tournament Saturday morning.

O'Malley Optimistic O'Malley indicated Wednes day he hoped negotiations for the Rose Bowl would be com pleted early next month. Under the Smith plan, the Dodgers would have made up the difference if the stadium's 30 per cent of gross concession money fell below the $350,0000 figure over the two-year period. Smith also sought to meet 0Malley's objections to having home plate in the east end of the stadium by suggesting the diamond be turned so batters would not have to face the sun. The Dodgers, making the move from Brooklyn, originally had planned to play some games in Wrigley Field here and the Coliesum. But Wrigley Field was ruled out as too small and the difficulty in settling on arrange ments for the Coliesum caused O'Malley to turn to the Rose Bowl. The initial cost of revamping the Coliesum, according to dis cussion today, was estimated at S123.000, excluding ground work for the playing diamond. Win-Skein Ends With Loss Sat. Lexington, Ky. flFl West Virginia UDset North Carolina. the nation's No. 1 team, 75-64, Saturday night to snap the Tar heels' 37-game winning streak and win the University of Ken tucky invitational basketball tournament.

One part of the reactor failed to function. In order to get at the part, the scientists usually would have had to drain off quantities of radioactive water, remove the part, fix it, re-install it, put the dangerous water back in and go back to their chain reactions. This seemed like a tortuous process to two engineers, Wil liam J. Kann and Charles F. Bullinger. They speculated that if they could dam off the water from the part, they would save at least two maintainance steps. So they did with dry ice and alcohol at minus 70 degrees. By applying the frigid con tainer at the right spot, they froze a 10-inch ice dam that sealed off the radioactive water permitting repairs to the part.

(International) CaEifornians Blackout on Pro TV Holds Washington (IP) The justice department said it couldn't help pro football fans in the San Francisco area who want to see the Western division champion ship game on television today. Assistant Attorney General Victor R. Hansen, who is in charge of the department's anti trust division, said Friday his in vestigators were looking into the contemplated local television blackout of the game between the San Francisco Forty Niners and Detroit Lions in San Fran cisco. But an official said later they could discover no law or court decision to prevent the teams from going ahead with their plans to black out the nation wide telecast within a radius of 150 miles. He noted that several years ago the justice department and the National Football league filed in federal court a consent judgment outlining the rules to govern the telecasting of pro football games. The judgment followed a department inquiry into NFL TV practices. But this official said that the decree specifically exempted playoff games from any court imposed rules or regulations. Under such circumstances, he said, the TV or broadcasting rules are left strictly up to the teams themselves or to the league. Faced with these legal bar riers, he said, he could not see how the department could do anything before Sunday to alter the plans for telecasting the game.
