Dodgers Lost in -Jungle' In Quest for Home Park Los Angeles (IP) The Los Angeles Dodgers, who don't have the faintest idea of where the locker room will be this season, still . were lost today in a jungle of confer ences, surveys, opposing state ments and legal opinions. Dodger President Walter O'Malley said previously that he figured some arrangements would be made An about 10 days or two weeks. That meant whether the former Brooklyn club would play in the Rose Bowl, Memorial Col iseum or Wrigley Field. A Pasadena city official said Thursday the Rose Bowl would be available to the Dodgers despite efforts of a citizens' group. But if the Dodgers use the bowl 12 miles from Los Angeles, they'll have to put out money for al terations. County Supervisor Kenneth Hahn predicted the Dodgers would play in the Coliseum until they build their own park. The Chavez Ravine site more or less promised to the club in a deal with the city goes up for a public vote in June. - - " Home Plate Controversy The main trouble in. the Coliseum is over home plate O Malley doesn t want sun shining in a batter's eyes, but the Coliseum commission wants home plate in the east end, as fewer alterations would be needed. . O'Malley had held out for home plate in the west end of the huge oval. Most of the activity today was set for late this afternoon when the club president will confer with Pasadena, officials about their Rose Bowl. So far it looks as if costs of altering the bowl for a big league ball park will be high. EVERGREEN LEAGUE Standings: Big Y Market Seven Up Bottling Co. . Chuck"s Pump Service .
