Brundage Sees Two 0b- siae|es in Way of Rus
 sian Competition

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 22-Rus- sia may be excluded from the 1948 Olympic games. President Avery Brundage of the U. s. Olympic games committee told newsmen here that two factors may block Soviet participation in the international sports classic.
 Brundage says, reports that the Russian government is subsidizing leading athletes raises the question of professionalism And in addi- ton, the committee President ex- plains that Russia has no organiz- ed sports committee with which the International Olympics Federal may deal. Existence of such commit tee is required for participation in the games.
 Brundage is in San Francisco to inspect facilities at the Olympic club here where the national hand ball championships will be held this spring. In addition to his Olym- pics committee post, he is chair man of the AAU handball commit tee.

PETERSBURG SKI
 TEAM WILL RACE
 HERE ON SUNDAY

Outside participation in the Mol Ter Gold Cup Ski Race and other competitive ski events scheduled here Sunday was assured today in a wire stating that team of five skiers from Petersburg will be on hand to compete.
 The wire, received here this morn ing by Juneau Ski Club Tourna- ment Chairman Dean Williams, stated that four men ski racers and one woman competitor are leaving Petersburg by small boat and are due to arrive here by noon tomor- TOW.
 The advice from Petersburg is ex- pected to force the hand of those in charge of the local race, who have been considering postpone ment of the event because of pres ent hazardous conditions on the lower section of the Douglas Island Ski Trail. It now seews likely that the program of events set for Sun day will be run off as scheduled, if at all possible. It is hoped that prayers for new snow will be ans wered, however, as two-inch fall should cover up the present icy coating on the trail and put it in practically perfect shape for the events. Tourney officials were giv- ing the course another once lover this morning.
 Arrival of the Petersburg con- tingent will behoove local slats rid CTS to busy themselves at waxing their boards to extra speed, as, dur ing previous years when they have competed here in Channel journeys Petersburg racers have been high ly successful in carrying off a large share of the trophies offered
 The racing schedule for Sunday includes four events: A trail race for women, starting at the Tread well Ditch at the top of the First Meadow and running down to the foot eff tie jump; a Junior race commencing at the Second Cabin

and also finishing at tile bottom of the jump hill: Class B mems race, ever the same course as that set for the Class A men in their competition for the Moller Cup. The mems course will run from the top of the Slalom Slope, through the Second and First Meadows to the same finish line as that for Women and Juniors
 Starting tune for the race pro- gram is set for 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon, when all competitors are to be at the First Cabin no later than l o'clock when racing num- hsrs will be distributed to the en- trants

 That same area, at the finish lire, also affords the best view of tke exhibition ski jumping that is planned as an additional highlight to Sundays program.
 Trophies to be won in Sundays competition are: The Moller Gold Cup, perpetual trophy for the win ner of the Mems Class A and a Juneau Ski Club cup to the Mems Class B winner.
 Front finishers in the Women's and Junior events are to receive medals, as well as points toward trophies set up for winners of com bincd downhill and slalom events.

Prewar Yank Star Now Has Inside Track fo Sec
 ond Base Spot
BY GAYLE TALBOT

BALBOA, c. Z., Feb. 22-Mana- ger Joe McCarthys task of putting together a New York Yankee in- field appears to have been simpli- fled by George Stirnweiss' stub- born holdout against a $16,000 con- tract offere dhim.
 Having two of the finest second basemen in the game in Stirnweiss and Joe Gordon, Mccarthy had in- tended to alternate the pair between second and third during the Pana- ma phase of the training to see which fitted better into an infield combination But Stirnweiss' re- fusal to accept the same pay he re- ceived last year, probably lost him any chance he had of beating Cor don out at second.
 Gordon, after his years in the service, has not quite regained his spectacular form of perwar years, but still is a whale of an infield- CT and can hit the same long ball that helped carry the Tanks to sev- eral world championships.
 Although Mccarthy declines to say so in as many words, the im- pression is that Stirnweiss, one of the most valuable men in the American League and the Leagues batting champ last year, will have to fight for a job at the strange position of third base if and when he shows up in Florida.
 Bill Johnson, who was something of a sensation at third in his one season with the Tanks in 1943, has been declared Army surplus" and is expected to report probably about April l.
 Johnson is the kind of a long ball ritter Mccarthy likes and it might Es significant that he knocked in 94 runs in his one big league sea- son compared to Stirnweiss' 64 last year Also, Mccarthy appears to have another promising third base prospect in Henry Majeski, who hit 345 in his last year with the Newark Bears, and has been belting the ball at a great clip in inter squad games.
 Taking everything in considera- ton, it would surprise no one in the New York camp if Stirnweiss eventually were traded for a top notch pitcher or two. Pitching is the Yankees big weakness and 8 second baseman as valuable as Steinweiss undoubtedly would fetch something really good from club such as Detroit, which has mounds men to spare.
 Yesterday, the Yankees trimmed an All-Star team of the Panama professional league to 4 The game drew near capacity crowd of 10000 fans and was quite gala affair. The first ball was thrown out by the President of Panama, Enrique Jimenez. And the Ameri- can ambassador, Frank Hines, was among those present.
 Spud Chandler and Bill Wright held the Panama team to only six hits, while the Tanks were get ting ten safetiaS. three of the
