The Senators, who have gone
first class all the way in their
travels, will have even more
room to ramble this year as
they will take United Oct
charters on % of their SO
flights, an increase Of Is char
tiers over last year.
Burt Hawkins, the travelling
secretary, today announced the
teams 1868 travel plans. Even
with the added charters the
cost will be within a few dol
lars of the $4,000 spent last
year.
Asked If the Senators had any
thoughts about following the
example of the Los Angeles
Dodgers and buying their own
plane, Hawkins pointed out
that it would hardly be profit
able.
The Electra 2, which is own
ed by the Dodgers, cost $2.6 mil
lion. The Los Angeles Angels
also use the Dodgers plane.
The Senators will use United
on % charters and five
scheduled flights, and will go
American on nine scheduled
flights, including two to Los
Angeles from Washington and
one to the coast from New
York Hawkins could have char
tered the coast flights, but 1t
would take 812 hours instead
Of approximately five.

NEW YORK, Jan. IL (AP) -
Australia's Dawn Fraser, the
first woman to break the l.
minute barrier for the 100 meter
swim, today was named Female
Athlete of the Year for 1862 in
the annual year-end poll of the
Associated Press.
AT the ripe old age Of 25,
when most women swimmers
long have quit competition for
weekend dips, the tall Mel
bourne blond scored her break
through by churning ITO yards
in 500 seconds in the Australian
trials for the British Empire
Games last october.
This broke her own world
record Of go seconds for the
ITO yards and 100 meters Cl09

Then in the race for the gold
medal In the Empire Games at
Perth, the strapping champion
lowered her mark for 10 yards
and 100 meters TO 500 seconds.
Seeking Three Straight
The astonishing thing about
her record-breaking triumph
and the capture of four gold
medals In the Games, was that
Dawn had just recovered from
a siege Of bronchitis. She is

can League adds a second team

There will be a minimum of
So seats on the charters, which
will give the Senators party
of roughly 40 ample room to
stretch and should keep the
players happy. The new Sena-
tors have not had any COM
plants from the player repre-
sentative about their travel &C
commodations. There were nu-
merous squawks on other clubs
last year.
The Senators will log 26, 735
miles this year, compared to
22,117 in 1862. One reason
that they will be able to stay
close to the same budget char
tiers is the cut in tax on air.
line tickets from 10 per cent
to 5 per cent.
The st. Louis Cardinals and
Detroit Tigers used charters
on virtually all of their flights
last year. The orioles used
about 20 charters last year.
Hawkins said it would be
pointless to use charters when
the club travels on a day off,
or has a day off between
games. The team will use char
tiers after all Sunday road
games.
The club has one more trip
this year than last because Of
an exhibition game in Cincin-
natl.

ALL 10 Move
Headquarters.

SAN DIEGO, Jan. II (AP)-
The American Football
Leagues executive committee,
in the first session of its an
nual meeting, has:
l. Voted to move league head
quarters from Dallas to New
York City next June /.
2. Elected William Sullivan,
jr.. of Boston, league president
to replace Wayne Valley Of
Oakland.
3. Raised the guarantee to
visiting teams from $4,000 to
$50, 000-matching the tab in
the older National Football
League.
Today, in its second session,
the committee planned to dis
cuss rules, player limits and
officiating.
AFL Commissioner Joe FoSs
said a decision was made on
sale of the New York franchise,
which Harry Wismer turned
back to the league in mid-sea-
son because of financial losses.
However, Foss said he couldn't
release the information be-
cause negotiations are not COM
pleted.
The hea dquarters was
switched to New York to put
league officials close to major
news outlets, Foss said.
Foss said all the leagues
clubs will stay in their present
cities next season. He said a re-
port that the Oakland Raiders
would be moved to Portland is
"a wild rumor of the worst
sort"

Billy DeChard
Dies; Veteran

Funeral services will be held
tomorrow for Billy DeChard,
the city's first timekeeper when
boxing was legalized in Wash
ington. He died yesterday of
a heart attack.
A native of Washington, the
75-year-old sports enthusiast
was born in the southwest sec
ton Of the city, a hotbed of
athletic competition. He played
all sports but excelled in wrest-
ling. AS a lightweight, Billy
Travelled the southern circuit
with the late Joe Turner, one
time middleweight champion
when titles counted, Jack
Spaulding and Walter (Shep)
Gallagher.
De Chard and Turner were
leaders in organizing the Rail-
road YMCA, which flourished
from 1907 until the late 1905.
The two also founded the In
dependent Athletic Club, a
pillar Of sports in its day, and
De Chard later served as in
structor at the Memorial Ath-
letic Club in Georgetown.

Frankie Mann, the boxing pro-
moter here a generation ago,
De Chard was timekeeper at
| all boxing matches in the
locality from the days of boot
leg fighting until the sport was
| legalized. He continued in that
capacity as a member of the
District Boxing Commission

Terps Expect
Navy to Put
On Pressure

Maryland's basketball team,
which has been having its
troubles against a pressure de-
Tense, expects to see more of
the same tomorrow night when
the Terps take on arch-rival
Navy at Cole Field House.
But by now Coach Bud Mil
likan feels his Terps should
be ready to take it in stride.
Or so he hopes.
Virtually every team Mary
land has played of late has
ball-hawked and pressed the
Terps' ball handlers. So If
practice makes perfect the
coach thinks his Terps should
be approaching the near-flaw-
less stage by now.
II think we've gotten better
against the press" Millikan
says. I'VE sure have seen
enough Of it.
Il think the fact we won
against George Washington
and its press could give us the
confidence we need" Millikan
adds. 1T might have been
better to win that way than by
10 or Is points, as far as con-
fidence goes"
1t was Nays harassing, all
court press that wrecked the
Terps a year ago, 67-58. The
Middies had IL steals in the
first half alone and bolted to
quick 24-9 lead. That was
enough to withstand a Mary
land comeback.
It's no secret that Navy has
to depend on aggreSsiveness and
accurate shooting to offset its
definite lack of height. The
Middies don't have a player
taller than 6-foot-5. Maryland,
meanwhile, starts 6-8 Scott
Ferguson and 6-6 Jerry Green
span.
Millikan secuted the Middies
Wednesday in their loss to Duke
and came away impressed with
their so per cent accuracy and
their balance. II doubt that
Ben Carnevale feels he has a
better club than last year, "
Millikan says, but it looked
that way to me-"
Top guns for the Middies are
John Mahoney. Ron Terwilliger
and John Kretching, all of
whom have almost identical
averages. Terwilliger,
the former Wakefield High ace.
actually is the scoring leader
with 104 points in nine games.
Kretching has l02 and Ma
honey 101.
The Terps, making a come
back after an GA start, will be
shooting for their third victory
in a row. They have a 3-5
record with triumphs over Vir-
ginia, South Carolina and CIV.
Nays ledger is AS with VIC
tories over Long Island, Gettys-
burg, Utah and Bucknell.

and U. N. Ambassador Adlai E
Stevenson believe the Unite d
States definitely is being hurt
abroad by the racial conflict.
Factors Abroad Tied In
The situation is complicated
by several factors likely to make

SUMNER OF CRISIS
Racial Issue Hurts u. S.

publicly to put the Unite d
States in the category with
South Africa, which has been
hailed before the United Ma
lions repeatedly because Of It's
official policy Of racial segre-
cation.
The London Daily Telegraph
pointed out the distinction. In
the United States, it said, "the
law is on the black mans
side" while "the inferiority of
the black man was written into
the constitution Of the South
African Union"
The Reds 4 Themes
Mr.. Rusk says the Commu-
nists have used four m ain
themes in exploiting United
States racial tensions: "a
Racism Is inevitable under
American capitalism az mac
ton by the Government is tan
tamount to the support Of the
"racists" CD racial incidents
have exposed the hypocrisy" of
United States claims to world
leadership and "a the attitude
toward Negroes in the United
States is indicative of the atti-
tude toward colored peoples
everywhere.
In the United Nations a few
weeks ago, Soviet Delegate Pla-
ton d. Morozov told q COM
mittee the "unbridled racism''
in the United States has proved
there is mo moral basis" to
claims that the United States
is the defender of human rights
in the world. This theme has
been stressed in the Sovie t
press.
There is no evidence so far
that the Soviet campaign has
driven a wedge between tn G
United States and other
friendly countries or that any
are ready to follow Soviet sug-
gestions that the United Ma
tons should get out of the
United States because of racial
discrimination.
This idea was brought up by
the Russians two years ago aft
er African delegations received
a scurrilous, unsigned letter
threatening their safety. Some
Africans were angered by the
letters, but Mr.. Stevenson
soothed them by denouncing
the senders and stating that
the FBI was making a thorough
inquiry.

lsome countries more sensitive
to United States events:
i. /. The independence explo-
sion which has brought to the
world scene in the last decade a
large contingent of new ma
tons whose people had been
under the white mans rule for
generations. In many cases
there were strong racial resent
ments.
The personal experience of
many Asian and African visi-
tors, especially diplomats, who
came face to face with racial
discrimination in the Unite d
States and were left with q
bitter taste. Mr.. Rusk reported
scores Of such incidents in the
last two years.
2. The preoccupation of the
African and Asian countries
! with the apartheid (racial seq
regation) policies of South At
RIGA. This not only makes them
more conscious of the develop
ments in the United States, but
it renders it difficult for the
United States to form its own
independent policies on South
Africa and related world prob
lens.
8. Communist efforts to ex-
plot the United States racial
problem with the aim of dis
crediting the United States in
the eyes of Asians and Afri-
cans.
Mr.. Rusk told a congression-
al committee recently that the
Communists regard racial dis
Termination "as one of their
most valuable assets" He
warned that unless Congress
acts to remove discriminatory
practices hostile propaganda
might be expected to hurt us
more than it has hurt us until
now"
Diplomats Shocked
Mr.. Stevenson says he finds
U. N. diplomats generally toll
Grant and understanding, but
even they have been shocked
by what they have seen and
heard in recent months"
Even more serious, he be-
lieves, is the false impression"
created abroad about the atti-
tude Of the bulk of the Ameri-
can people and the official pol
icy of the Government. This
must be corrected as promptly
as possible, he says.
Ralph j. Bunche, American
Negro who is an undersecre-
tary Of the United Nations, says
"repressions" of the Negro hurt
the United States because the
basic image of the United States
| is that of a democratic nation
leading the cause Of world
freedom"
Criticism at African Session
During the summit meeting
of African leaders in Adds
Ababa, Ethiopia, the Unite d
States racial crisis was widely
discussed. Milton Obote, Prime
Minister of Uganda, said: 1.-THE
key to the successful projection
of the United States image in
Africa lies more in a solution
of the Negro problem than in
foreign aid"
The Ethiopian Herald was
more critical. It referred to the
United States governments
"half-hearted willingness" to
act against discrimination and
said:

paigning on a free world slo-
gan and is condemning the ra-
cist government of South Afri-

sion Of apartheid. What hap
