The WHL should have — six arenas of major league calibre —meaning seating capacity of 10,000-up — before taking the step. “Before we challenge for the Stanley Cup we want to be sure we won't be humiliated.” This means player improvement, pos- sibly when the draft is elimin- ated. The National League, under pressure to expand but content with its present program, would welcome the western circuit's attainment of top calibre, in Leader’s opinion. It appears now, he said, that the WHL should become a division of the NHL, rather than an independent ri- val. “T think each team would make champions in 1961. _— CP Photo ‘other division.” one tour per season through the Television is a factor in hockey’s future and a continent- wide league will be more appeal- ing to sponsors, Leader said. Obtaining players of a major league calibre was not a serious obstacle. Canada would continue to be the main source of player supply. But mid western United States and New England were becoming hockey hotbeds and would provide many major leaguers in the future. PROMPTS OPTIMISM Attendance and enthusiasm in California have prompted the optimism for an early rise in stature. Portland joined the league last season and soon was playing to capacity houses. San Francisco and Los Angeles, add- ed this season, have had amazing sucec3s at the gate. Obtaining adequate arenas is the first goal, he said. Most NHL plants seat about 12,000, with Chicago able to accommodate 16,000, The WHL now can play to 14,- (500 in Los Angeles, 12,500 in San Francisco, 11,000 in Portland. FORMER CATCHER ALONE IN WORLD By BERNARD GAVZER NEW YORK (?) — The big barrel-chesicd man sat at the jead of the table. “Gee, that’s good,” said Roy Campanella, a Feeding huinself is one of the few physical things Campanella cnn do. Four years ago, there was fear that even this might be beyond him when an auto- mobile accident broke his neck and made the much-honored Erooklyn Dodgers catcher a quadriplegic. Four years ago, he had a $75,000 home, a $42,000 yacht, an attractive wife, an adoring family. His health was good, his batting average likewise, his future bright. Today, he lives in a rented ; five-room 'Harlem , apartment with a nurse-housekeeper. The yacht is gone. His wife has be- come a stranger to him. One of this boys is a delinquent.

If you make an error and fight it, you’ make 10 more. Flat on his back for five months, Campy fought despair. “1 don’t mind telling you that I had a lot of black thoughts. ‘couldn't.
