IN THE WRINGER
Anchorage Daily NeWs)

A recent issue of Time magazine describes Harry Bridges leader of the west coast maritime strike, as with his caught in the wringer
 His is in the wringer, Time says because he can't find much of an for maintaining his strike call against the ship and ship operators of the west coast Bridges has the choice of eating explain ing to his members why they should continue strike which has cost them more than $5,OOOOOO in wages" ;" Time says
 It be hard thing for Bridges to justify in view of the fact that the ShpoWnerS offered wage increases agreed to the hiring hall issue and in view of the add tOna fact that east coast and Great Lakes unions had gone back to work the same terms offered by the west coast
 Bridges in fact has only explanation and that is he IS carrying out orders from Moscow to overthrow capitalism free enterprise is branded in Russia Listen to Bridges utterances during the past decade of strike fomenting:
 In address before the University of Washington luncheon club May 14, 1937 we take the stand that workers have nothing in with the en- ployers We in class struggle and subscribe to the belief that the employer is not business his products will be necessary and we will be providing them when there employing class We frankly believe that day IS coming.
 In negotiating meeting on June 28, 1948: we pro- pose that guys go out of business propose any such thing. He replying to employer suggestion that the and hour structure be revised in the light of overtime decision of the Supreme Court.
 On July 19, 1940, being asked during negotiations whether he thought profit not legitimate motive for being in business: Making profits is not good My view is that the government should take industry and take all the profits out of t'
 On September 2, 1948: 'When this strike is finished, will be out of business they (the employers) will be out of business"
 What you do with like this, we ask you? Perhaps it's best just to let the wrnger Bridges himself is tightening it.

 wants additional service.
 ANCHORAGE (P)-A parade of witnesses kept up a steady chant for increased air service to Alaska at civil aeronautics board hearings yesterday.
 Carl Rentschler, president of the Anchorage junior chamber of com merce, read a resolution from his group criticizing Northwest Air lines because Northwest "carries less than 20 per cent of the trade, but has made no effort to obtain additional business" The fact that l5 non-scheduled airlines are Op- erating into Anchorage should alone be enough to warrant more certificated carriers, he said
 George Sundborg, consultant for Alaska development board, said his group wants to see an Alaskan carriers, made up of Alas kans interested in the Territory, get certificates. It is impossible for the Territory's population to dou- ble in the next 10 years without increased air transport, he said.
 Mayor Ray Kohler of Fairbanks presented the board with a city council resolution calling for addi- tional service for Fairbanks for routes to easater'n manufacturers and south to Oregon and California As high as 90 per cent of the per ishables brought Fairbanks come by air, he said.
 Mayor Lee Bettinger of Kodiak said his city has sufficient traffic to warrant direct service to the states. Kodiak residents spend half million dollars annually travelling to Anchorage en route to the States, he said.
 C.. we have to go north 10 go 5outh," he mayor complained
 Alaska businessmen testified in regard to the importance of air transport in moving their goods and about their plans to send large rargoes of seafood and furs to the , States by air.
 Yesterday, spokesmen for Port land, Ore, presented their case for direct Portland-Alaska air serv- ice.
 ] Harold s. Gill, representing the Portland chamber of commerce, said that city would like to be on lines going direct to Alaska for passengers, freight and air express. He pointed out that Portland is a wholesale drug center.
 Lew Richards, aviation editor of the Portland Oregonian, declared that Portland airports are open to traffic when weather conditions close those around Seattle. He said the Seattle airport was closed for II days last February.
 Portland was the capital of Alaska 100 years ago and the chief port of entry" said Richards. "We are in love with the same gall don't mean Klondike Kate, but aviation"
 1 Richards contended that Port land, served by five airlines, is a national transportation hub and . natural distribution point for goods and produce.

In Florida as Result
OF Minor Leg Injury
BY the Associated Press

SAN BRUNO, Calf, Dec. IS
Citation is going to take a Florida
vacation, passing up odds-on chances
this winter to become the top
money-winning race horse in the
world.
A minor leg injury is the reason,
Citations trainer, H. A. Jimmy)
Jones, said yesterday.
Jones said it wasn't a dangerous
injury and he wouldn't worry if
Citation were an ordinary horse, but
explained:
Citation is the greatest horse I've
ever seen. II I took chance and
raced him this winter at Santa
Anita and the injury became serious,
I'd never forgive myself"
The wonder horse had been sched-
uled for two $100, 1000 races at Santa
Anita. He has won $865, $50, and by
racing in Southern California might
easily have surpassed the world
record winnings Of $911,335 by
Stymie.
Citation received the injury,
described by Jones as a hot spot"
in winning his last outing-the
s50,000 added Tanforan Handicap
at Tanforan track last Saturday.
Jones said the thoroughbred, after
three-month rest, would race again
next spring.

Chamberlain, Bell
Due to Join High
School Title PLAY

The addition of Chamberlain anc
Bell Vocational Schools to the Dis.
trict Public High School Athletic
Leagues may be considered at to-
morrow's meeting of the Board o1
High School Principals. If the move
is approved, and it appears likely IT
will be, the two schools may begin
their active participation by playing
in the basket ball title series start
ing early next month. \
Addition of these schools would
make it 10-team race, and also
mean revival of the east-west sys-
tenn in football. Under that system,
schools are divided into two sections,
with the winners meeting at the end
OF the season for the championship.
Both schools have fielded teams
in all major sports for the last sew
eral years but their games have not
been counted in official standings.

Chandler Reserves
Durocher Decision
Until January
, BY the Assoeioted Press

CHICAGO, Dec. Is. Baseball
Commissioner A. B. Chandler has
reserved until January decision on
the Freddy Fftzsimmons tamper-
ing case" involving Leo Durocher
and the New York Giants.
All parties concerned refused to
talk about the matter. Chandler
has given no indication what pen
alties-if any-he may hand out.
However, most baseball people be-
lieved that Durocher, Fitzsimmons
and the Giants would get off with
fines.
Chandler called the investigation
after the Giants signed Fitzsim-
mons as a coach while he still was
on the reserve list of the Boston
Braves.
Durocher and Fitzsimmons told
their STORIES to Chandler yesterday
in q closed hearing. When Leo came
out after an hour and 40 minutes
of questioning he put off news
papermen with a mo comment"
answer. When asked whether he
had been ordered to silence by
Chandler he replied:
"It isn't that I can't talk. don't
> want to-"
Gagged by Chandler.
However, at the hearing, Chand-
Ter warned Leo not to talk with
newspapermen. The Giants man
ager promised to comply. He asked
Chandler whether he was in trouble
and was told that he would be in
formed of the decision after
Chandler had studied carefully all
the evidence.
Leo said he had made an in
nbcent technical mistake" in talk
ing with Fitzsimmons while under
contract to Boston. Fitz backed UP
Durocher.
Durocher told the commissioner
he was worried deeply over his
latest ENHANCEMENT and added that
his wife also was very much con-
cerned. He told Chandler he had
brought his troubles to his wife,
Movie Actress Laraine Day, and she
had advised him to tell the commits
sioner the truth, exactly as Leo told
it to her.
Wife is Comforting.
II don't believe you have done
anything wrong" Miss Day told Leo
IF you've made a mistake, it was
an honest, technical one Tell your
story to the commissioner. I'm
certain he'll believe YOU"
After the hearing Chandler pre-
sided at the joint major league
meeting that closed the winter ses-
sion. He ruled each league was free
to set its own night game pattern,
although they differed in the num-
ber.
The National League visiting
teams must play at least five night
games in each city if the home
team desires it.
The American League night game
figure is four. A committee was to
be named to propose changes in
the bonus law.
The Pacific Coasts bid for an in
crease from the draft price of
$4,000 to s25,000 and increased ex-
emptions from four to six years,
was denied. The majors voted
$4,000 to support the American
League Junior baseball program.
