Exemption Law
Sought; Keoting
Lushes at NFL
BY GEORGE HUBER

The Supreme Court decision
making professional football
subject to antitrust laws ID
bringing about a furry of activ-
ity on Capitol Hill, not only
about football but other sports
as well.
Congressional investigations
are being called for. bills are be-
ing introduced and statements
are being issued. Friends and
detractors of various sports
notably baseball and boxing in
addition to football-are getting
into the act.
The football decision left base
ball still exempt from antitrust
legislation, and a couple Of bills
were introduced yesterday to
change that. Another bill
promised for today would exempt
football.
UACoSuAB VV0AASS LAOUC
Representatives Celler, Demo-
crat of New York. and Killings,
Republican of California, were
the first to introduce bills yes
terday to bring baseball under
antitrust statutes. Representa-
tive Heating, Republican of New
York, called for an investigation
of pro football.
On the other side of the pic
jture was Representative Harris,
Democrat of Arkansas. He said
he planned to introduce a meas
ure today giving pro football
and other sports the same ex-
emption baseball now enjoys.
Harris. a noted sports fan and
frequently a spectator at all
types of sports events in WASH
Iington, said. Sports are sports,
not businesses. We want to
keep them in the American ira
Idition."
He said his bill would prevent
the Interstate Commerce Com
mission from having jurisdic-
ton over any professional sport
in any fashion.
Reserve Clauses Are Targets

would concern pro football.

Trust Decision Brings Calls
For Sports Probes in House
|Stobbs and Yost Signed,
But Courtney Sits Tight

Meanwhile, there's no word
from the metropolis of Cou-
shatta, La. where Courtney
rules a herd of 1900 cattle and
presumably is prepared to be as
stubborn as his most ornery
critter.
The bespectacled catcher is re-
questing a raise Of $4,000 for
nudging his batting average up
ward two points to 300 last sea-
son. Cal Griffith says Clint has
been offered the same contract,
believed to call for $17,500, that
he had last year. Cal says it's
his last offer.
Courtney has written Cal only
once since Griffith arrived here
two weeks ago. In that letter
Clint refused to bulge from his
demands. Telephone calls to
IClint's Coushatta ranch are un-
answered, which may mean he's
en- route here. He was supposed
to be in uniform last Monday.
Cal isn't inclined to be per.
turbed yet. Actually, everybody
in camp is here by invitation un.
til Friday" Griffith said. so

out unless they fail to appear
then. Whether I'll fine anybody
who doesn't show up by then, OF
make them work out at their owr
expense until they satisfy the
manager they're in shape, viii
depend on circumstances in each
case"
Griffith even expresses some
sympathy for Clint's position, but
mot enough to yield.
There's an unfortunate situa.
ton in regard to our catchers,
Cal said. I'VE have three, Court
Iney. Ed Fitzgerald and Lou Der.
beret, Of about equal ability. They
share the catching and so it's
difficult for any of them to ad.
vance rapidly financially. 1t woulc
be different if we had a Yogt
Berra or somebody like that

fellows split it up and that has
to be taken into account.
