Baxter got skippy Baxter
a big ovation from the small
crowd again last night. In
fact, it was almost as big as
the ovation given to Norval Bap-
tie, the grand old man of ice
skating.
Baptie, whose left leg was am
putated a while back. took bow
at intermission. His presence
was in the way of a surprise
party arranged by his physician.
Baxter pleased the gathering
with his fast, acrobatic routine
that has as it's climax a sensa-
tional backward flip.
Like most ice show performers
Baxter learned his skating in
the rink. He was born in Can
ada, but moved to California at
the age of Z. He turned profess
sional in 1910, after the Olympics
which he had hoped to enter
were called off.
Skippy is married to the for
mer Phyllis Martin, a graduate
of Central High School here and
line skater in the show. Mrs
Baxter grew up in Washington

The monopoly subcommittee
of the Senate Judiciary Com

Senator johnson, Democrat, of
Colorado that would bring base
ball clubs under antitrust laws
provided the clubs are connected
with companies already under
those laws.
Garagiola got into the act
because he wants to be a radio

was assured a job in that line
by the st. Louis advertising COM
pany that has an account with
the AnheuSer-Busc Brewing Co.
Joe would have been required
to quit baseball to get the job.
The brewery owns the Cardinals,
a rival of the Cubs, and john
son concluded that the Cardinals
may be guilty of tampering with
another teams player. This is
strictly against baseball rules.
But I can quit baseball if I
want to-" Garagiola told the
subcommittee.

Syracuse Is Happy
Over Upset Win, but
Injury Hits Again
BY the Asseooted Press

SYRACUSE. N. Y, April o.
The injury-ridden Syracuse Ma
tionals, basking in the glow of
another upset victory over the
Minneapolis Lakers in their Ma
tional Basketball Association
championship series, had another
familiar name on the injury
roster today.
Bullet Bill Gabor was on
crutches and probably won't
play when his teammates tackle
the Lakers again here tomorrow
afternoon in a nationally tele-
vised game.
Gabor was thrown to the floor
last night in a scramble for the
ball as the Nationals whipped the
Lakers 80-69 after effectively
tying up George Mikan. The best
Oft series now stands at 20.
King Still Out.
Although most of the Nationals
have a bandage or bruiSe, only
George King still is out of action.
He has a broken wrist. He may
see some action tomorrow. They
play at Minneapolis Sunday
afternoon and Monday if an
other game is needed.
Syracuse Coach AL Cervi be-
moaned his crippled team:
Twenty years I've been in
basketball. Twenty years-and
I've never seen a string of in
juries like this.
But we got a lot of help from
Dolph Schayes and Earl Lloyd.
And Bill Kenville is coming
along too-we'll need a lot from
him with Gabor out"
Slipped Cartilage.
Doctors reported Gabor had a
slipped cartilage in his right leg,
a recurrence of an old injury.
Cervi not only was happy but
optimistic after the second Syra-
cuse win of the series.
81 think now we've got a very
very good chance OF winning the
championship" he said.
Both Cervi and Coach John
Kundla of the LakerS planned to
rest their teams today, but Cervi
said he would call a light drill
for Jim Neal and Al Masino. who
saw little action last night, and
that Schayes would practice
shooting to try to overcome the
handicap of the cast.
