in homers with AT while Al Rosen, Indian third sacker, surprised by hitting 37 in the American. Stan Musial of the Cardinals won his fourth NIL batting crown with .346 while Billy Goodman. Bostons yer satile fielder, paced the AL with .S54.
 Top rockies were Boston's first baseman, Walt Dropo, in the AL, and Negro Sam Jethroe. fleet Brave center fielder in the NIL.
 Some fabulous deals were made, among thel the sale of World Series Tv rights for $8oO,00O. The money went into the players pen sion fund. Another deal saw the Pirates sign Paul Petit, 18-year-old southpaw fresh out of a Los An geles high school for $100,000. The kid had an agent and it was then that Saigh first openly opposed Chandler. Saigh thought Petit should have been made a free agent. Chandler let the deal stand Mean while, Petit won only two games and lost seven for New Orleans.
 The fact that baseball repealed the bonus rule figures to be help to Petit and other youngsters who received more than $6,000 for sign. ing initial baseball contracts. Or dinarily the end of the bonus rule would have been big news but it was lost in the Chandler shuffle.
 Red Sox Stronger
 The Red Sox appeared to have made the best player deals. After Cleveland released Boudreau Boston picked him up. The Red Sox also obtained two front-line pitchers in Rae Scarborough and Bill Wight from the White Sox in exchange for Joe Dobson, Al zarilla n d rookie Dick Littlefield. Scarborough went from Washington to the White Sox late ill May with Eddie Robin son and Al Kozar in exchange for Cass Michaels, Bob Kuzava n d John Ostrowski. Third baseman Bob Dillinger, whom the Browns sold to the Athletics for $100,000 last win ter, went to the Pirates in mid July.
 Death claimed several former stars. Grover Cleveland Alexander, 63, who won 30 or more games three successive years for the Phillies, passed on a month after watching the World Series. Jewell Ems, 60, ex-Pirate and Syracuse manager; Hagen (KikD Cuyler, former Cub outfielder and Red Sox coach, and Art Fletcher, 65, former shortstop and Yankee coach, also passed on.

 ManeuverinQ
By FRANK ECK P News Features Sports Editor

NEW YORK.-BasebaI's hirings ard firings made headlines but the sumner to end all 1850 surprises was the major league vote leaving the sport with a commissioner it did not want.
 While Commissioner A. B. (Hap- py) Chandler strives to hold base ball to the letter of his $65,000 a year contract, which expires April 90. 1852, the majors are intent on selecting a new man "as soon as practicable"
 Chandler, as a 46-year-old junior senator from Kentucky, was named commissioner for seven-year term on April 24, 1945.
 At the recent St. Petersburg, Fla, winter meetings it looked like Chandler would be voted a new seven year contact. That is, it looked that way to all but Fred M. Saigh, energetic president of the St. Louis Cardinals. They have been bitter enemies. Saigh gathered enough executives on his side to bring about Chandler's defeat.

Wes Fesler
 (oath
 Minnesota

MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 25 = R - Wes Fesler, who only six weeks ago said he was finished with big time football, today is football coach at Minnesota.
 The man who quit as coach at Ohio State last month summed it all up with one sentence: You can't take 19 years of experience and what-not and throw them out the window"
 Fesler's unexpected appointment as Gopher coach rocked Big Ten followers with surprise. He was of fered and accepted three-year contract at the annual salary of S14,0OO, $500 more than received by Bernie Bierman, the man he succeeds.
 Fesler resigned as head coach at Ohio State Dec. g. He said his health couldn't stand the strain of trying to win every game. His team had won six Western Conference games and lost three. He took high salaried job as a real estate salesman for John w. Galbreath in Columbus. Galbreath has been Ohio States No. l talent angel.
 The appointment was as much surprise in Minneapolis as Fesler's intentions were a secret in Colum- bus. His name had not figured in the speculation over Bierman's suc- cessor though many coaches were interviewed and many names were brought forward.

BASEBALL MANAGERS
 WORRIED

CINCINNATI, Jan. 25 R - Commissioner AB. (Happy) Chand- ler's quiet pledge that baseball, would do anything the government asks it to do" broke sharply last night into a furor over the sug gested drafting of athletes.
 Chandler's remark at his annual dinner for newsmen was repeat of what he has doggedly emphasized before that the national game is at the governments command and is willing to do anything the government calls upon it to do.
 The commissioner, who termed baseball "the cleanest sport in the world" noted that the game with stood the problems of World War II and said that he believed it would also come through the present na- tional emergency He admitted that baseball might be facing quite a problem" however.
 Chandler's declaration came even as major league club owners were thumbing worriedly through their rosters to see which of their players may have to go into service. Their fretting stems from the statement by Secretary of Defense George Marshall that 4-F athletes may be taken into the Armed Forces for non-combat duty.
 Most major leaguers are home free as far as service is concerned, unless the government boosts the draft age and also starts to gather in married men and veterans.
 Only about 40 per cent of the Big Time players are in the 19-to-25 draft age class. Most of them have already seen military service and a huge majority are married.

NEW YORK.-Handsom Michael Kirby, the figure skater who stole the show when he made his pro- fessional debut here seven years ago, is another in the long line oi athletes who entered sports on doc tors orders.
 Kirby, 25 and a native of Sydney Nova Scotia, had rheumatic heart as a youngster and was denied the thrill of participating in juvenile sports. However, soon after the age of seven his doctor advised his parents that ice skating would be permissible as a body builder.
 Ten years later Kirby, who now lives in Beverly Hills. Calf, began winning titles. He won the junior pairs title of Canada with Shirley dalstead in 1940 while attending St. Michaels High in Toronto. In

ROSE BOWL QUESTION
 UP AGAIN

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 25 - IR = Pasadena's Tournament of Rose Association may seek the support of the Deep South if the Pacific Coast Conference votes next month to abandon it's tieup with the Rose Bowl football game.
 Paul Zimmerman, sports editor of the Los Angeles Times, said to- day that he has learned from most responsible sources" that there is a grave danger that the PCC will quit the New Years classic.
 He said four northwest member of the conference = Idaho, Wash ington State, Oregon and Oregon State were in favor of junking the Rose Bowl pact at a PCC meeting in Riverside, Calf. earlier this month California, too, is cold on the game, Zimmerman added, and UCLA and Stanford are likely to support Cal Washington, he said his sources inform him, may support the California schools. Southern California favors contin- ued support of the Rose Bowl.
 Rube Samuelson, sports editor of the Pasadena StarNews, said the tournament committee is most op- timistic that it will continue in partnership with the Pacific Coast Conference"
 He added that the committee has explored the consequences of the PCC withdrawal, that it sent ennis saries to the NCAA meeting in Dal- las, sounded out representatives of various southern schools and re- ceived ample assurance that they are interested, as always, in the Rose Bowl game.

At the Chamber of Commerce meeting yesterday it was revealed by Tony Schwamm, Director of Aviation, that E. K.

 The Chamber was alerted to the news that a subcommittee of Congress will be here next week to review secret projects. A com mittee headed by A. Polet was named to prepare for their arrival.
 Letters were read from Delegate Bartlett and the attorney general concerning the action to be taken to remove from office the Second Division district attorney, Frank Bingham, who has been absent most of the past year.

meat. Tests show that shrinkage is reduced from 20 to 25 per cent.
 Meat is more tender when cooked at a low temperature. High temp erature reduces tenderness by causing muscle fibers to shrink. At low temperatures, juices remain in the meat and fat melting slowly through the meat enhances its flavor.
 The man of the house will enjoy carving roasts that have been cooked at low temperatures be- cause they carve easily and fall into full slices. Roasts cooked at high temperatures are dry ard will crumble when carved.
 Meat cooked at low temperatures is uniformly done throughout - completely rare. medium or well done. It doesn't burn on the out side before cooking in the center.
 Drippings are clearer and of higher quality at low temperatures. There also is less splattering of fat in pan and oven and this makes less work in cleaning.
