US Hockey Feud Threatens To Wreck Winter Olympics
Chicago, Jan. 20—(UP)A spokesman for the U. S. Olympic committee said today that members had re-affirmed their threat to withdraw all teams from the Winter Olympic games if an American "outlaw" team is allowed to play hockey.
In a mail vote, the members voted 68 to 6 to cancel all American in the race if the unproven-
entries in the games if the unrecognized Amateur Hockey association team begins to play. The spokesman said the mail vote was taken to give members who did not attend the meeting Dec. 3, when the resolution was passed, a chance to express their opinion.
The mail vote also was designed to make sure that all members understood the action clearly, the spokesman said.
The Swiss organizing committee, which makes the final decision on all applications for the winter games, has not announced its action on the A. H. A. entry, which was not submitted through the U.S. Olympic committee, or on the entry of the Amateur Athletic Union team, the committee's official entry.
The A. H. A., which is not recognized by the U.S.O.C., has been accepted by the Ligue Internationale De Hockey Sur Glace, the international body controlling the sport.
Avery Brundage, president of the U.S. committee, said that the best solution would be to reject both American entries, but the L.I.H.G. announced that it would withdraw all other hockey teams unless the A.H.A. team is allowed to play.
Columbus, O., Jan. 20—(UP)—Club and league executives of the 56 minor baseball leagues went into the second day of their conference today after Minor League Czar George M. Trautman said he will approve no further bonus contracts.
Bonus Is Out For Minors
Trautman, president of the National Association of Professional Baseball leagues, told the opening session of the conference yesterday that contracts promising bonuses to players for outstanding performances were "dangerous to baseball."
"Such contracts don't belong in baseball," said Trautman in his speech to the 250 delegates. "When a player signs a contract, he signs to do his best, and that's what he should deliver without the guarantee of added pay. Such contracts are dangerous to baseball."
"It is possible for a player to sign a contract awarding him a bonus if he wins 14 games, and after he wins 13 games his club could keep him off
wins 14 games, and an 13 games his club could keep him off the mound for the rest of the year, thus preventing him from collecting. The game goes for a player guaranteed more pay for hitting over a certain figure. Such contracts might lead to something that we don't want in baseball and we will not approve them."
Today's session will include a continuation of Monday's discussion of the new rules in the 101-page rule book. A series of talks on baseball management will precede the conclusion of the conference at a banquet Friday night, with Branch Rickey, head of the Brooklyn Dodgers, the principal speaker.

Braking Distances on Various Road Surfaces at 20 mph
New winter accident facts, based on research and tests by National Safety Council, reveal alarming increase of skidding and poor visibility crashes during snowy, icy weather. Authorities urge equalized brakes, using tire chains, windshield wipers, defrosters, good lights and lower speeds to minimize the added seasonal hazards of inadequate stop-and-go traction on snow or ice and reduced visibility.
