League President Maurice Podoloff said the owners were confronted by numerous prob lems in their efforts to - ex pand to the West Coast. Those problems included transporta tion, the obtaining of players to staff the new teams and the arrangement of a sched ule "on a reasonably sound economic basis." "If it were a question of such cities as Chicago Cleve land, Pittsburgh or Baltimore, there would be no such prob lems involved," Podoloff -said. "But the West Coast is a, dif ferent matter. We would have to add two teams at the same time and . that complicates matters " The. league's , referees also were represented at Thurs day's session and they told the owners they felt they would be better "protected" if they worked under contract raiher than on a game-to-game basis as they do now. The owners promised to "explore the problem" at .the end of this season and said that a system of contracts probably would be put into effect next year. President Bob Short of the Minneapolis' Lakers said that henceforth he will insist that a non-segregation clause be included in all games played by his team in non-league cities.
