tween its previous baseball de-
cision and the one yesterday
involving football. 1t suggested
that the way to resolve any in
consistencies was by legislation,
not by judicial decisions.
There were many similarities
between the two cases that re-
suited in two different decisions.
6-3 Division
The Court was split 6-3 on
yesterdays decision on an APP
peal of William Radovich,
onetime University of Southern
California player who played
with Detroit of the National
Football League. He later jumped
to the Los Angeles Dons of the
now defunct All America Con-
ference. In a still later attempt
to return to pro football, he
found no one would hire him.
Radovich had sued the league
and its clubs for $105,000 dam
ages. Lower courts, basing their
decisions on the baseball case,
had held he had no basis for a
suit under the antitrust laws.
The Supreme Court last COM
sidered baseball in 1853. 1t re-
ferred then to a decision in 1922
in which baseball was termed
a sport and not a business and
thus outside the scope of anti
trust laws. and noted that Con-
gresS had not acted on the SUBJ
ject in the years following 1922.
Justice Clark in writing the
majority opinion delivered yes

Granger Faces
Tough Task in
Gloves Finals
BY BILL FUCHS

Nothing. apparently. stops
Jimmy TAFT, but John Granger,
an Air Force lieutenant from
Syracuse University. will give it
a whale Of a try in the 147-
pound championship bout Of The
Stars Golden Gloves tournament
Thursday night at Uline Arena.
The tenacity of TAFT and the
cunning of the educated star
of the Boiling Air Force team
makes this one Of the super
attractions on an 18-bout pro-
gram that winds up the fistic
marathon that began five weeks
ago. The show will start at $3.50.
Eligible winners of senior titles
will earn berths on the Wash
Iington team that will battle in
the Eastern Tournament Of
Champions in Madison Square
Garden Monday through We'd
nesday of next week.
Barely Missed Olympic Trip
Granger. whose sheer agrees
siveness and an ability to cut
Through his opponents defenses
has carried him to the final
round, was one of the top per-
formers in the Olympic trials. He
moved to the final there, too, only
to lose a trip to Australia because
/ OF a cut eye.
But still the question persists
how to stop TAFT? A trailer truck
couldn't do it. Nor could two
other fighters in this tournament
after staggering the 23-year-old
baby food salesman from Alexan-
dria in the early going. Even
knocking him down doesn't stop
him. Billy Better of MerricKI
decked him with a hard right in
the second round of the cham
lpionship final last year and dis
covered such tactics against this
opponent serves only as a stim-
ulant. TAFT got up, a bit shaken
but determined. and floored Bet
ter. He went on to win not only
the fight but The Star Award
given annually to the outstanding
senior.
Best weapon against TAFT APP
pears to be truck. While rid
ing a motorcycle four years ago,
the CYO star crashed into a
truck and was hospitalized for
II months. He still can't bend
his left leg fully, but no one flg-
ured he ever would recover suf-
ficiently TO enter boxing
tournament.
/ Wearing on Coach
The early gatherings TAFT has
been taking in the Gloves are
beginning to show their effect,
not on TAFT. but on Paddy Kane.
veteran trainer Of the CYO. who
says he doesn't know how much
more he can take.
Hes doing it all the time"
Kane says in a tone of admira-
ton mixed with protest. Thurs
day night I'm going to start
working him out about a half
hour before his fight. That's
enough to give you palpitations
lof the heart or something"
A nifty performance over TAFT
could put Granger in line for
The Star Award. besides in
creasing Bolling's margin of
victory for the senior team
championship. The Generals,
with five in the finals. have a.
commanding lead. Quantico has

Surprise Confusion Follow
Football Anti Ru|inq
Courts Decision
Clashes With Its
Baseball Stund
By GEORGE HUBER

Reactions to yesterdays SUI
preme Court decision that holds
professional football subject to-
antitrust laws range from sur
prise to confusion.
One of the first questions
raised was how much longer
baseball is likely to remain i'm
mune.
1t is likely that among other
results Of the decision, Congress
will consider bills designed to
bring baseball under the anti
trust laws. It's also likely that
friends of pro football will in
troduce measures exempting it
from antitrust legislation.
The court itself acknowledged
an apparent contradiction be-

view of the inf1ationary pres
sures that now exist. it is aston

Mr.. Strunk said statistics
available within the last few
days indicate the building costs
rose more than 6 per cent during
1856. the biggest rise for any
year since 1851.
"As everyone will recall, 1856
was a year when the air was
filled with complaints about
tight money and a shortage of
mortgage credit" he said.
Frankly, I dread to think Of
the increase in building costs
that would have taken place if
the cries for greatly easier credit
had been Needed" Building costs
have increased 81 per cent in
the last 10 years and prospects
are for another advance in 1857,
he declared.
Mr.. Strunk said Congress
could raise the rate on CT loans

f1ation." Pointing out that the
rate now is AZ per cent, he said
an increase to 5 per cent would

Frauds in Wall Street

Crooks are operating in Wal
Street today on the greatest scale
since the frantic '20s. A new
wave of stock swindles, involv-
ing millions Of dollars is sweep
ing over the Nation.
Thousands of gullible Ameri.
cans already have been bilked
by the glib securities racketeers
more thousands are in danger
right now. There even are signs
that organized racketeers of the
underworld have started to move
into the securities business.
This is no scare" report;
what I'm writing here is fact.
At no time in its 22-year his
tory has the Governments f.

sion-had to deal with such
widespread fraud, deceit and
manipulation in the sale OF
securities as now.
SEC Fights SwindIes
The understaffed SEC is work.
ing day and night to prevent and
detect stock swindles. It's chair
man, j. Sinclair Armstrong, is
set to urge Congress to strengthen
the stock fraud laws.
This is the reason President
Eisenhower's new budget asks
Congress to raise the SECS ap-

$5.7 million to $7.2 million.
The background for a splurge
of stock swindles is just about
perfect.
