BY Jor REICHLER ZAP SPORTS WRITER


 In fitting climax to basebalrs most turbulent year, the close of the regular season found the Ma ticnal League without a champion, since the Brooklyn Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals wound up in a dead heat for first place.
 It is doubtful if ever before so many hectic episodes were crowded into one hig league season. Here are just few of the things that happened in 1946:
 Turbulent Eeason
 The raiding of the Majors by George Pasquel's Mexicana baseball league.
 Robert Murphys effort to estab- lish a baseball union and the mar rowly averted Pittsburgh Pirates player strike.
 Resignation of six Major League managers.
 Sales of the Pittsburgh and Cleve- land Clubs.
 Bob Fellers determined bid for a strikeout record
 The Boston Red Sox' first pen nant in 28 years, and a record 18,- CCC,O00 attendance mark for the Majors.
 Never Such Tie
 The Cards-Dodgers deadlock was something new in Major League baseball. Never before had regu- lar campaign ended in such tie, although the Chicago Cubs and New York Giants were ordered to replay tie game to determine the championship in 1908. Tn Cubs won that regular season playoff and also the World Series.
 The first Cards-Dodgers playofi game is to be played in St. Louis tcmcfrow The two teams then will go to Brooklyn for a second game Thursday and possibly a third Fri day.
 World Series Dates
 This means the World Series will start next Sunday, Oct. 6 instead of next Wednesday. Meanwhile the Red Sex will pass the time playing an all-star squad in several exhibi- tion games.
 Neither the Dodgers nor the Cards had the punch necessary to put over the knockout blow yester day. A victory fer either team meant the championship, but the Brooks bowed to Mort Cooper and the Boston Braves 40, while the Cards were beaten by Johnny Schmitz and the Chicago Cubs 8-5.
 Teller Makes Record
 Bob Teller won 26 games and wliffed 348 batters to better Rube Waddell's official strikeout record of 343 Unofficial mark is 349). The Cardinals probably can find the most reasons to kick themselves for yesterdays results, for they knew full well that the Dodgers were having rough afternoon with Boston's Mort Cooper before the Red Birds blew their finale to

West Coast football, somewhat groggy from the effects of last weekend's shakedoWn cruise, levels off next Saturday for the long haul that will eventually produce con ference champions and sectional su- premacy
 Opening games Saturday, played before overflow crowds in some in- stances, combined into a l946 pig skin inaugural favored by slam bang battle, a few amazingly lop- sided scores and unlocked for mar row squeaks in others.
 More than 6800O fans saw the highly favored Southern California Trcjans break a deadlock and edge out Washington State 13-7 in the last 70 seconds of play
 Dubious On TrojlnS
 The outcome left Trojan follow CTS lightly dubious as to the chan ces next Saturday when Southern California meets invading Ohio State in the Los Angeles Coliseum.

 Conference clashes this week will see University of California at Los Angeles square off against the Washington Huskies at Seattle; Oregon and the California Bears face each other at Berkeley and Idaho tackles Washington State at Pullman

u. 5. Is First Nation
To Cut Red Tape
On Entry by Plane

Long considered the worst Of
fender in this respect, the United
States today became the first MAJ
ton to cut through red tape COM
plicating the clearance OF interna-
tional air travellers through immi-
grafton, customs, public health and
security agencies.
Simplified regulations call for
declaration forms for passengers,
cargo and alien employees which are
substantially the same as those rec
commended by the Provisional In
lternational Civil Aviation Organi-
zation to expedite tedious processes
at ports of entry.
The revisions were made as the
result of a study by subcommittee
from the Air Coordinating Commit
tee headed by William A. NJ. Bur-
den, Assistant Secretary of Com
merce.
A single form will be used for
both incoming and outgoing traffic,
and passengers can furnish infor-
nation for customs, immigration
and health services on the same
declaration.
Similar time-saving regulations
will apply to cargo traffic. Changes
have been approved by the Bureau
of Customs, Bureau of immigration
and Naturalization, Justice Depart
ment, Public Health Service, Fed
eral Security Agency and other
agencies involved.
Action was taken after numerous
, complaints that the speed and ef-
ficiency of international air trans
portation was being nullified to a
large extent by the vast amount of
paperwork required of passengers
and carrier employees.
It was believed here that many
countries in Latin America, which
often adopted restrictive regulations
to keep pace with the United States,
will take similar action to cut red
tape now hampering the expansion
of air traffic to the South.

School Chief Promises
Every Consideration
For Unions Proposals

School Supt. Hobart M. Corning
said today that every considera-
ton" would be given to program
of salary and other adjustments
recommended for District public
school teachers yesterday by three
local teachers unions.
Equal pay for equal educational
qualifications and $250-a-year in
crease over existing minimum SAL
aries for teachers with a bachelors
degree were among the suggestions
put forward by Locals 8. 27 and 867
of the Teachers Unions of WASH
ington (AFL).
The two points agree with pro-
posals offered to the superintendent
day earlier by the Joint Legisla-
tive Council, composed of teachers,
school officers and organizations.
The Board of Education will rec
ommend pay and classification ad-
justments to Congress after getting
DR.. Corning's proposals on the
question.
Fewer But Larger Raises.
Other suggestions put forward by
the unions to remove numerous in
equities and injustices" regarding
pay and classification would: @
/. Raise the minimum pay OF
teachers with a masters degree
$3.50 to a $1,000 annual figure and
up the maximum salary attainable
in the school system from $4,l5C
to 5000.
O. Establish equal pay increases
both as to amount and number In
all grade levels. Under the system
fewer but larger increases would
enable teachers to reach their max
imum level sooner.
8. Assure school librarians q sal
ary commensurate with their edu-
cational qualifications.
Move for Veterans.
f. Abolish discrimination against
veterans with respect to attainment
of supermaximum salary classif1-
cations because of time lost In
service.
S. Require teachers entering Dis
trict schools from other localities to
meet the same educational qualifi-
cations as local teachers for pay
purposes.
6. Adjust extra-curricular assign
ments for teachers in accordance
with classroom work load.
7. Assure teachers of one free
period each day beside the lunch
period.
8. Permit all teachers with six
years satisfactory service, who have
Feyidenced professional growth, and
performed additional educational
work, to draw maximum pay.
9. Correct a false picture" OF
actual teacher work load by consid-
ering for purposes of work load de-
termination only those who engage
in day-by-day classroom instruc-
ton for at least four periods q
week"
10. Give vocational high school
teachers, now receiving the same pay
as ordinary junior high teachers
more equitable" salaries.
II. Provide single salary scale
for both teachers and officers.
