With Schoeppner
Due for TV Aug. 8.

TORONTO. July / (AP).-
The light heavyweight title
fight here between Champion
Archie Moore and Germany's
Erich Schoeppner is expected
to be seen on home television
in the. United States August 8.
Promoter Dave Rush said
the American Broadcastlng Co
has guaranteed $165,0O0 for
the television rights and has
cleared its network for the
fight date and the two days
following in case postpone
ments develop.
He said Lester Malitz, pro-
ducer of ABC's Wednesday
night fights, told him that the
only problem remaining is that
two sponsors are dickering fol
the show. 1t remains to be de-
cided whether each will get q
piece or one will sponsor the
whole Varsity Stadium show.
But in New York an ABC
spokesman said the network
has taken an option on the
fight show but has not exer-
cised 1t yet.
We'll probably know by the
end of the week whether vel
take the fight or not" thu
spokesman said.
Rush said TelePrompter, thu
closed circuit television firm
asked for a release when thu
fight date was shifted from
July 18. Moore asked for thu
delay in order to gain mort
time to make the 175-pounc
weight limit.

Mr.. Murray, who has been
i'll the past month or so, is
cool to the idea of classified
and postal employe pay raises.
He apparently wants to limit
pay action this year merely to
making permanent the 2E2 per
cent temporary portion of the
1858 10 per cent postal pay
raise. which otherwise would
lapse at the end of the year.
The liberal members on the
House group want to use the
212 per cent feature as the
means of opening up the en-
tire salary question-both for
classified and postal employees.
so that they can receive an
additional pay raise this year.
The House groups initial
meeting on Thursday was
called by Mr.. Murray to hear
Chairman Roger Jones of the
Civil Service Commission dis
cuss various civil service prob
lens and pending legislation.
However, the occasion is ex-
pected to be used by the lib
eral bloc as an effort to set
definite dates for pay raise
hearings.
Meanwhile. 81 House mem
berS have thus far sponsored
classified and postal employe
pay raise bills.
On the other side of the
Capitol. the Senate Civil Serv-
ice Committee plans to start
pay raise hearings as soon as
the civil rights legislation is
disposed of.
Chairman Johnston of the
Senate Civil Service Commit
| tee says he favors a pay raise
for Government classified and
postal employees this year. The
South Carolina Democrat feels
that a modest pay boost would
be justified in view of the round
of pay raises this year in the
steel and other industries.
