He talked to the commissioner almost two hours, then emerged unruffled but with “no comment.” He was followed by Yankee Coach Charley Dressen, Parrott, Ted McGrew, former Dodger scout now with the Pirates, former Dodger Augie Galan now with the Reds, and John (Red) Corriden of Indianapolis, former Dodger coach, now with. the Yankees. Rickey's failure to arrive back in Florida yesterday after flying to a brother-in-law’s funeral in Ohio caused Chandler to break up the hearing into two acts. He set the second session for the Pennsylvania hotel in St. Petersburg. The rival clib presidents will be the only witnesses. But even then, Chandler's decision’ will not be forthcoming immediately... He said he first would return to his home office in Cincinnati and mull over the testimony at length before making any announcement,

SARASOTA, Fla, March 28 (U. ~|P.) ~Tex Hughson and Earl Johnson were named to pitch for the Red Sox today against the St. Louis Cardinal second-string combination of Ken Burkhart, Wayne McLeland and Gerry Staley. The Cards, easy 8-to-4 winners over the Box yesterday before 3500 fans, apparently were satisfied that they still held the mastery they established in the world seriés in 1946, and several Card rookies and second-stringers were expected to play today. sss LAKELAND, Fla. — The Detroit Tigers today gave indications of nearing the end of their spring training grind as Virgil (Fire) Trucks became the first pitcher to go the route for the Bengals. Trucks, with his smoke ball at its hottest, yesterday turned-inl a sixhit masterpiece to lead the Tigers to a 6-to-0 victory over the Buffalo Bisons.
