some invalid signatures. John Weaver, director of the Waynedale Civic Association, said* he had looked over the petition which was submitted earlier to the City of Fort Wayne and found signatures of minors and Fort Wayne residents Waynedale. located just south of here, has a population of about 6.000. Weaver said the association would take the issue to the Indiana Supreme Court if final approvals were made to annex Waynedale. The plan commission voted for the annexation and sent it on to the Fort Wayne city council for its approval. A public hearing was expected before the plan would be put into effect. Officials said annexation of Waynedale would cost Fort Wayne about $400,000. They estimated taxes, which would start in 1959 under the plan, would amount to $155,000 in additional revenue. The Waynedale Civic Association claimed the tax boost accompanying the annexation plan would make the move unwise for Waynedale residents. But the plan commission felt the move was necessary if Fort Wayne “is to continue to grow.” Study New Park For Cincinnati Redlegs COLUMBUS. Ohio (UP) — A 31member committee todaj’ considered the next step toward getting a new stadium for the Cincinnati Redlegs, made possible under a liam O'Neill. The bill opening the door to the bill signed Monday by Gov. C. Wilstadium authorizes county commissioners to build, purchase or lease a new ball park. It is effective in 90 days.
House Group I Opens Probe Os Pro Sports WASHINGTON (UP»—Rep. Kenneth B. Keating tR-N.Y.) said to|day he sees “no chance” that Congress will grant professional sports full immunity from antitrust laws. Keating is the senior Republican on a seven-man House subcommittee which began an investigation of pro sports Monday. He favors some, but not total, exemption of organized sports from antitrust regulation. Keating said the bill advanced by Rep. Oren Harris (D-Ark.) to free all phases ft baseball, football, basketbal ana hockey operations from the anti - trust aws goes “too far.” He said Congress won't buy a proposal like the Harris bill. It would even free business aspects of the sports like radio and television broadcasting arrangements from government anti-trust supervision. Another Bill “Tw Fair’? At the same time, Keating said, a bill offered by subcommittee chairman Emanuel Ce 11 e r •DN.Y. > goes “too far” in the opposite direction. Celler would put baseball in the same boat as the other sports and subject it to antitrust regulation. The Supreme Court twice has held that anti-trust laws don't apply to organized baseball. But it ruled last Feb. 25 that they. do cover professional football. ' Keating sponsors a bill that falls between Harris’ and Celler's. He would give professional sports partial exemption but keep their business aspects like broadcasting and concessions under regulation. The subcommittee got off to a slow start on its inquiry Monday. Os the four witnesses called to testify, only Harris got to the stand. Organized baseball will mount its offensive Wednesday, when the hearings will resume after a oneday breather Baseball Commissioner Ford C. Frick and Minor League President George M. Trautman will be the star witnesses. The subcommittee had planned to hear Monday from Victor R, Hansen, assistant attorney general in charge of anti-trust cases. But when time ran out it took a written statement from Hansen instead. Calls Congress Responsible Hansen said the Justice Department feels it’s up to Congress to decide whether baseball should be brought under anti - trust statutes along with other sports. But he cautioned against “lightly” deciding to move in the other direction and extend baseball’s exemption to cover football, basketball and hockey. Hansen said the department’s view is that this exemption "shoud be extended only upon a very strong and clear showing that team sports cannot survive under the present status of antitrust's application.” At any rate, he said, no action should be taken to lessen government regulation of the sale of radio and TV rights covering sports events. Uses Soft Drink Fizz To Extinauish Fire KOKOMO (IF — A supermarket manager used a soft drink bottle as a fire extinguisher Monday. When the electric system of a car in his parking lot caught fire, A. C. Rounds grabbed a soft drink, uncapped it and shook it until it fizzed and then put out the flames with the fizz.

Cigarette Prices Boosted By leaders Wholesale Prices Increased Monday NEW YORK (UP) — Americans will pay a cent a pack more for non-filter tip cigarettes. Five major tobacco companies raised wholesale prices 35 cents a thousand Monday, which works out to around 1 cent a pack at retail. The incneasea probably .will be passed along to consigners. The increases, announced by American Tobacco Co., R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., Liggett & Myers, P. Lorillard & Co., and Philip Morris, do not affect filter tip brands made by these firms. The price hikes were blamed on rising costs of tobacco, labor and advertising. The new wholesale priees are $8.45 per thousand for regular size cigarettes, IbSs 2 per cent for cash payment, and $8.90 per thousand, less the same cash discount,, for king size brands. Filter tip brands remained unchanged at $9 a thousand. new Pennsylvania agent replacing Barber; Max DeHoff, who has been acting agent of the railroad; Herman Hoffman, car inspector: Ed Davidson, track foreman, and John Dickerson, a former employe of the railroad, now retired.
