Ali, in a surprise move, asked Federal Judge Joe Ingraham to sentence him imediately after the jury deliberated only 21 minutes. However, the maneuver appear- ed to be a formality, since at- torneys immediately said they will appeal the case and Ali left the court on the same $5,000 bond he had been under since May 8, when he was indicted. The sentence was the maximum provided for such a case and his attorneys said it had been ex- pected. He will also be fined $10,000, The verdict ended a trial that had lasted less than two days and had included less than five hours of testimony by only eight wit- nesses-four for each side. All did not take the stand. Ali has claimed the draft exemp- tion on the grounds he is Black Muslim minister,. Before the closing arguments, Judge Ingraham heard--out of the presence of the jury-a seven- point motion seeking an instructed verdict as acquittal. He rejected it. Attorney Hayden Covington said in the motion that Ali is only a parttime boxer and that the min- istry unquestionably is his voca- tion. "He is sort of a traveling bishop, going from mosque to mosque, temple to temple, bringing in great crowds in every city he visits." But U.S. Atty. Morton L. Sus- man said that in the occupation blank of the medical information Ali filled out April 28, he had written, "heavyweight boxing world champion." Judge Ingraham also noted that All's draft board file included sev- eral letters Ali had written to the board in 1966, saying he was leav- ing the country to fight. Ingraham noted specifically it was not the duty of the jury to decide whether the defendant was due an exemption from the draft because of his religion. "The court has read the draft board file and has found there was a basis in fact for 1-A classifica- tion," Ingraham told the jurors. "You are not to consider this." Ingraham had made such a finding while turning down a de- fense motion for an instructed verdict of acquittal. U.S. Atty. Morton L. Susman argued that Ali's fight with selec- tive service officials amounted to "a determined and ingenious effort to avoid military service." Alis attorneys, Hayden Coving- ton of New York City, and Quin- nan Hodges of Houston told the jury Clay had sincere religious beliefs when he refused April 28 to take the step forward as re- quired by law upon induction into the Armed Services. Asst. U.S. Atty. Carl Walker Jr. replied that "sincerity is not an issue here The issue is whether or not the defendant obeyed the law." Ecuador Upsets America In Davis Cup Zone Final By The Associated Press The Washington Senators cap- italized on two unearned runs-- one on an obstruction play-for a 4-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox last night. hIn DetroitAl Kalinedoubled home the tying run and Jim Northrup singled him in with the winner in the eighth inning, pull- ing the Detroit Tigers from be- hind to a 2-1 victory over the California Angels, to tighten up the American League race. The Chicago loss ended a three- game winning string for the Amer- ican League leaders. Frank Bertaine, acquired from Baltimore in the recent Mike Ep- stein trade, posted his first vic- tory for the Senators with relief help from Darold Knowles. The key play of the game oc- curred in the sixth inning, when the Senators, leading 2-1, had run- ners on first and second with two out. Paul Casanova singled up the middle and center fielder Tommie Agee fired a strike home, nailing Epstein at the plate. The um- pires, however, ruled third base- man Don Buford obstructed Ep- stein and the run was allowed. Major LeagueI Standings GUAYAQUIL, Ecuador tP) - Texan Cliff Richey salvaged a final singles victory over Miguel Olvera yesterday that made the final score 3-2 in favor of the jubilant Ecuador tennis team over the United States in the American Zone final of the Davis Cup tour- nament. The last loss, which had no sig- nificance, failed to dim the en- thusiasm of the home forces, still celebrating their amazing upset of the favored Americans. The clinching triumph was sup- plied Monday by 21-year-old Fran- cisco Guzman when he tumbled Arthur Ashe, America's top-rank- ing amateur, for a 3-1 advantage in the best-of-five series. Guzman, the son of a banker, and Olvera, a once sickly young- ster from a poor family, did the entire giant-killing job. Richey won the opening singles match over Guzman on Saturday. But on Sunday Guzman and 01- vera combined to whip the heavily favored doubles team of Clark Graebner and Marty Riessen, while Olvera toppled Ashe. The Americans -had been favored to win by at least 4-1. The experts figured the Yankees might lose a singles match but few, if anyone, believed the South Americans could vanquish the seasoned dou- bles team of Graebner, of Beach- wood, Ohio, and Riessen, of Evan- ston, Ill. The surprise triumph sent Ecua- dor into the interzone finals for the first time. The South Amer- icans will meet the winner of the European Zone A final between Spain and Russia. It was the sixth time in eight years that the United States failed to make the Challenge Round. It used to be an annual affair be- tween the United States and Aus- tralia. The news of the upset stunned Australia, land of the Cup holders. The Americans' loss will be costly to the Australians because no other team fills the stadium there like the Americans. This year the Challenge Round will be held at the 7,025-seat Mil- ton Courts in Brisbane, Dec. 26-28. Detroit reliever George Brunet put himself in hot water by hit- ting Don Wert with a pitch with one out in the inning and Ka- line followed with his shot against the left field wall. Bill Freehan was walked intentionally before Northrup singled to right. Right-hander Larry Jackson continued his niastery of the New York Mets, blanking them on only one hit-a second inning double by Tommy Davis-as the Philadel- phia Phillies breezed to a 4-0 vic- tory. The victory gave the. 36-year- old Jackson an 18-0 lifetime mark against New York. Only San Fran- cisco's Juan Marichal has, done better against the Mets, having beaten them 19 times in l9 deci- sions. Joe Foy hit a grand slam homer in the fifth inning and Carl Yas- trzemski followed with a bases- empty blast as the Boston Red Sox crushed the New York Yank- ees 7-1 behind the five-hit pitch- ing of Gary Bell. The loss was the Yankees' fourth in a row. Foy walloped his grand slam into the left field seats and Yasthzemski drove his 17th homer of the year against the upper deck facade in right. Dal Maxvill broke a 2-2 tie with a run-producing triple in the sev- enth inning and Orlando Cepeda hit a three-run homer in the eighth as league-leading St. Louis beat Houston 6-2. Larry Jaster won his fourth, game of the year against two defeats, but needed relief from Ron Willis in the ninth. The victory was St. Louis' third straight. Belinsky's throwing error gave St. Louis a run in the first inning on Flood's hit and Maxvill's squeeze bunt hit in the second scored. Tim McCarver, who had doubled. Houston tied it with a run in the second on singles by Jim.Lan- dis, Chuck Harrison and Bob Lillis and an unearned run in the fourth as Rusty Staub singled and reach- ed third when Alex Johnson let the ball get through' him - and Landis' sacrifice fly. Luis Tiant hit a home run and won his sixth straight game, with ninth inning relief help from Steve Bailey, as the Clevland In- dians held off Kansas City 5-3, for their third straight victory. Tiant, who his his first homer with none on in the seventh for a 5-1 lead, entered the ninth with a three-hitter. Chuck Hartenstein pitched 4 2/3 innings of scoreless relief while Ted Savage and Ron Santo cracked three hits apiece as the Chicago Cubs trimmed Pittsburgh 5-3 Tuesday night, snapping the Pirates, three - game winning streak. Hartenstein, picking up his sebond major league victory, re- lieved Joe Niekro after the Chi- ago starter was touched for a three run pinch homer by Don Clendenon. He stopped Pittsburgh on four hits the rest of the way. 4 AMERICAN' Harry Hopman, the the Australian Davis said he found it hard the news.
