Board To "Study" Baseball NEW YORK W A nine-man committee of major and minor league executives appointed by Commissioner Ford Frick will study the basic structure of base ball "to sec if we are on the proper ground." "If we are not." Frick said in announcing the committee, "it is time to get on it." The committee, called to meet Jan, 7, will go over such problems as the "reasonable" advancement of qualified players, unreasonable concentration of player talent and high bonus payments to untried youngsters. Although Frick did not mention the Supreme "Court decision on baseball in his announcement, the meeting date comes almost two months to the day after the high court ruled that baseball Is not subject to federal antitrust laws. Frick commented after the Nov. 9 decision that "it does not mean that baseball Is granted a license to do as it pleases." WHOOPEE!

Ducks1 Anderson Best Bet to Stop Halbrook (One in a series on Northern Di vision basketball prospects.) By MATT KRAMER EUGENE, Ore. W) Oregon's hopes of beating the favored Ore gon State basketball team to the Northern Division title depend on a sophomore center. It is customary to say a sopho more is Inexperienced, but this does not exactly apply to Max An derson, the rookie who has moved into Oregon's lineup. That's because of Wade "Swede" Halbrook, the 7 foot, 3 - inch Oregon State phenomenon. Prob ably every bi? player and every team in the Northern Division in the next three years will be judged by performance against the tall Oregon Stater. No one has more experience against Halbrook than does Ander son. He played against him three years in high school at Portland. He played against him as a col- Neil Worden holds the Notre Dame record for scoring the most touchdowns in a three-year career.

Calif. iM - Sea-going Bruins of UCLA have capturea their first sailing title, They posted 176 points in races by three flights on Newnort Bay to win the ninth Pacific Coast intercollegiate Championship Sun day. The Bruin No. 3 team sailor, Lewis Bedford, gave his team mates a 20-point lead in his divi sion. The University of Washington was sectond with 158 points in tne two-day, fog-shrouded event. Bill Buchan of Seattle, repre senting San Diego State, won in dividual honors in division A. ;4 points.,. lege freshman. Now he faces three more years against him. This puts Anderson in the midst of a somewhat awe some career. At any other period he might have been a bright star, ln high school, for example, An derson cracked the Portland scor ing record by a tremendous mar gin, but did not tret into the record books because Halbrook's record breaking was een more tremen dous. At any other time, too, Anderson would be considered big. He is 6-7, well-muscled and active. But he still is eight inches shorter than Halbrook. There's even the matter j)f the nickname Swede. Halbrook has it. Anderson doesn't. Actually it is An derson who is of Scandinavian de scent. Halbrook isn't. He acquired the nickname when his grade school companions noted the size of three Halbrook brothers and mis takenly decided they were all big Swedes. FIGHT If Anderson comes through this year. Oregon couid make a fight of it with the super-tall Oregon Stat ers or the hustling Idaho Vandals, who were good enough to tie with Oregon for second place last year and may be even stronger this year. The other Oregon players are veterans. They have speed, ex cellent shooting ability and enough height to give the team a 6-2 average. At forwards, there are 6-2 Bob Stout, 6-5 Ray Bell and 6-5 Ed Halberg. Halberg was one ot, the division's top scorers last season. At guards there are 5-10 Ken Weg ner, an all-Northern Division se lection last year, 5-11 Barney Hol land, and 6-foot Bob Hawes. Hol land is an excellent shot, ana Hawes a dangerous man because of his speed. MONDAY, HEr.;.

Jim Herrell on one side Is 6-4, Bob Miller scales 6-3. They're sparked by a couple of go boys at the guard positions Dick Dodo and Armin Jahr, both 5-10. Anticipating the need for help on the boards, Tech Coach Skeet O'Connell has named Keith Thomp son, his tallest boy at 6-3, to the center position. The Owls' two top scorers, for ward Jerry Wyntt and guard Don Butphln, will also get starting nods.

Bill Talbert. captain of the U.S. contingent, said today Pails will join the Americans tomorrow ( and work out twice a day with ' the team through Saturday. The Americans will also have a chance to work out with Ted Schroeder, who was a member of the U. S. team two years ago. He is here on a writing and radio as signment for an Australian news paper and has offered his services. The Challenge Round draw is scheduled Saturday. The matches will be held Dec. 28 through Dec. 30. NO TEACHER "We are not getting Pails as a teacher, although he can help in that respect," Talbert said. "Our purpose ln hiring him is to give the boys some first class competi tion this week." Palls served as a trial horse and coach for the Belgians last week and It was mainly through his el forts that the Europeans threw a scare into the Americans in the intcrzone finals at Brisbane. Pails, now a little chubby and balding, formerly was a member of the Australian Davis Cup team. He later turned pro and toured with Bobby Riggs' tennis exhibi tionists, having a long series with Pancho Segura. One of the game's all-time great stylists, Palls still plays top-flight tennis and there are reports he challenged Prank Sedgman to a winner-take-all court duel. GROUND Spalls- has wonderful ground strokes and we think he will help step up the pace of our boys," Tal bert said. "I particularly plan to have him work a lot with Scixas so Vic can get back on his game. Also, Pails is an Australian and can give us a different kind of competition. He should quicken the interest among the fellows who might tend to get dull playing just among themselves. ' The American team drilled both morning and afternoon today at the Koovong courts.
