BEHIND HOME PLATE
By Doug Stewart

With the outlook for baseball in
1851 clouded by the tragic world
conditions, the fight among the ma
jor league owners, over Commits
sioner Chandler, is very unfortunate.
The major league owners have
failed to give the public any valid
reason for their attempt to fire the
commissioner and this silence on
their part is, in my book, slap in
the face to the fans, without whom
baseball would get nowhere
The very manner in which the
vote to Gust Mr.. Chandler was
sprung, seems to indicate that there
is something Rotten in Denmark
and the fans who support the game
have a right to know what it is.
The matter is now held in abey-
ance until the next meeting of the
major league officials in February,
but in the meantime think it would
help baseball tremendously if Joint
public statement was made by the
president of the American League
and the National League, explaining
what is back of this sudden decision
to fire the commissioner.

listened to both professional
football play-off games on Sunday
afternoon and got tremendous kick
out of both of them.
The game between the Cleveland
Browns and the New York Giants
cleveland won it to 81, played in
icy temperature and on frozen
field, quickly developed into kick
ing duel, with Lou Groza coming
through with two field goals for the
Browns, while Randy Clay put one
between the uprights for the Giants
lone tally. The Browns other two
points came on safety.
Conditions out in Los Angeles.
where the Bears-Rams game was
played, was just the opposite. The
temperature there was in the COS
and the field was in perfect condi-
ton. Norm Van Brocklin, the Rams
sensational quarterback, started for
Los Angeles, taking the place of the
old reliable, Bob Waterfield, who
had been down with a virus infec-
ton. Van Brocklin was, however,
unable to connect with his passes, as
the matter of fact, he threw nine
and only completed one and that for
a gain of just nine yards.
Coach Stydahar, seeing that the
boy was obviously off form (his
passes were going way over the re-
ceivers heads) sent in Waterfield to
replace him and the complexion of
the game changed right there.
Waterfeld's passes began to click,
with Tom Fears and Glenn Davis on
the receiving end of most of them.
Three passes from Waterffeld to
Fears resulted in touchdowns, and
Davis made sensational touchdown
run after sharing a Waterfeld pass,
only to have it called back because
of holding penalty.

 Allied forces in the U. N. beach, head, some l65 miles to the south east, struck fiercely on the central and southern fronts of the 125- mile defense perimeter. A thun- derous artillery barrage signaled the kickoff.

A 5000, GOODMAN ARMED FORCE

(By Clarke Beach)
 The Presidents plan to raise the armed forces strength to OOO co men means that critical deci sions will have to be made soon in Congress and the White House.
 And if war should come and a-out mobilization were necessary, both the armed forces and industry would face much complex problem than they did in 194O
 The immediate problem is adding about 1,50O,OOO men to the armed forces The pool of who regis tered under the present draft law will not provide this added force Congress would have to change to law to enable veterans to be drafted The President would have to change the seecve service regulations to per- init the drafting of men with dependents and men now deferred for Occupaonal reasons. The armed forces would have lower their physical standards for induc tees.
 Here's the picture:
 The June, 1948 draft law required all men from Is through 25 years of register By last August lO 943 546 had registered But under present laws and regulations not than 818601 of them likely to be inducted.
 Service says the armed forces physical requirements are too high In World War H. 36 per cent of the examined jected for physical reasons, cOmpar- ed to the present 60 per cent
 The biggest categOries of unavailable men are the 2,67332O war veterans the 1817 199 men who are 26 years of and older only 25 and younger be inducted, and the 784, ,554 men with dependents.
 Economic conditions lot different now from what they in 1940 Industrial production is at a peacetime high Civilian employment is higher than it has been before Some 62367 OOO persons are at work. Unemployment is down to 2,500,000
 The Bureau estimates the labor force can't be ncreas ed by more than $500, 900 persons. Yet between 194O and 1945 the labor force boosted to IT, OOO You increase the labor force by getting people to work who have retired or never worked befOre-chefly the aged, the handicapped or women.
 Women comprise the chief source for new workers.

Century Youth Conference to Be Held
 December 3 to I

Nationwide participation in the White House Confer ence on Children and Youth is now in full swing, according to George F. Crisman, executive secretary of the Alaska Commission on Children and Youth. Crisman has just re- turned to his Juneau headquarters after attending an advisory council meeting in Chicago last week.
 The council on state and local action, which has just closed its preconference meeting, was host to 150 persons representing the states and territories, and two observers from Germany and France
 The Alaska Commission on Chil- dren and Youth, established by proclamation of Gov. Ernest Grue- ming in January of this year, is acting as liaison between the local committees and the national com mittee of the White House Confer ence which is scheduled to be held in Washington, D. C., December 3 to ', 1850.
 The 1850 Midcentury White House Conference will be the fifth to be held in this century. The first one was conducted under President Theodore Roosevelt ir 1909, the second under President Woodrow Wilson in 1919, the thirG under President Herbert Hoover il 1880, and the last one under Presi- dent Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1940. The National Commission on Chil- dren and Youth, with members. from 67 organizations, first pro posed a 1850 conference at it's meeting in 1946. Plans have been progressing since that time, culmi- hating in the meeting to be held in December.
 "Of particular note to Alaskan s" Crisman said, "is the report of local action which was made to the ad- visory council regarding one of Alaskas progressive communities, Sitka. An account of formation of the Youth Progress OrganiZatio' Sitka was received with a great deal of interest.
