Muhammed Ali takes calrmly
conscientious objectors ruling
ATLANTA (MP-An attorney
for Muhammed Ali, formerly
Cassius Clay, said yesterday the
ex-heavyweight boxing cham-
pion may win draft status as a
conscientious objector on the
strength of a recent Supreme
Court decision.
The Supreme Court exempted
Monday from military service
all young men who oppose war
on strong ethical or moral
grounds, even if this opposition
is not based on religious belief.
Ali had asked to be classified
as a conscientious objector be-
cause of membership in the
Black Muslim faith.
Robert Bolt, an attorney for
the American Civil Liberties
Union, which is defending Ali,
said that an earlier decision by
the U.S. Court of Appeals aid
not doubt Ali's sincerity in his
objection to war, but instead
said the court felt that Black
Muslims were primarily a polit-
ical and racial rather than reli-
gious organization.
Bolt said the court's latest de-
cision could end the litigation.
Clay, however, took the news
calmly. He played down the no-
tion that he's been denied any
freedom.
"You're free," Clay said,
"when your conscience is free.
You can be locked up in a cell
and be a free man, you know
that, Brother, I've been free all
along."
Clay, who was stripped of his
boxing title when he refused in-
duction, said, "I'm ready for
the worse. If they want to lock
me in jail, they can lock me in
jail. I'm not fleeing the country

or burning my draft card. I've
been working with the law, I
wish they'd hurry up and decide
whether I'm right or wrong."
Clay's attorney, Chauncey
Eskridge, said from Chicago,
after the Supreme Court deci-
sion was announced Monday
that he was encouraged by the
ruling.
"Our first move will be to ask
the court to reconsider its for-
mer opinion in light of this re-
cent opinion."
Clay has been convicted of
evading the draft and is free
pending an appeal.
McLain looks toward start
at Tiger Stadium on July 1st
LAKELAND, Fla. (P)-Cock-
.ure Detroit pitcher Denny Mc-
Lain gets nervous when he
thinks of his July 1 return to
baseball.
"Tiger Stadium is sold out,"
he says, "and I hope most of
them will be cheering instead of
booing. I'll need em."
McLain is entering the final
two weeks of his suspension by
baseball commissioner Bowie
Kuhn for associating with un-
savory characters. He's phy ;i-
cally sound and claims to have
learned a lesson. ,
"This case is closed as of July
1," said McLain at his upper
middle class Lakeland home.
"You might say I'm being born
again. I have profited much by
this mistake."
"People say you sometimes
have to profit by mistakes," he
said, "and boy did I have a
doozie."
McLain weights 200, five
pounds under his 1969 playing
weight. He works daily at Lake-
land High School and pitches
"Like I was in a real game" ev-
ery third or fourth afternoon.
. Somebody figured out in the
Tiger front office that McLain,
with luck, could get as many as
24 starts in the last three
months of the season. Despite
knowing this, Denny won't own
up to but one goal.
McLain says he "would like
to think the Tigers can win it,
and that's my goal." But, he ad-
mits;~"there is a helluva lot to
make up. But, we can do it. The
talent is the same as 1968 when
we won it all. We're all just two
years older ... for better our
worse."

MEXICO CITY AP) -- Brazil
and West Germany - the teams
with the strongest attacks in the
World Soccer Cup competition
prepared yesterday to meet the
best defensive teams, Uruguay
and Italy, in today's crucial
semifinals games.
The West Germans, who have
scored 13 goals in four games,
travelled to Puebla, near Mexico
City yesterday and scheduled
a brief training session before
the match against Italy.
The Italians, who have been
based in Mexico City since the
start of the championship, will
oppose the best defense of the
championship against the goal-
grabbing Germans. I t a 1 i a n

ed one goal so far.

ceded only one goal, left Puebla

where they will face their old

Uruguayans drafted a strong
protest to the International Soc-

claiming the federation had act-
ed illegally in making them
travel 300 miles to Guadalajara,
when fans and team officials
had expected them to play in
Mexico City.
Uruguay and Brazil have an
old quarrel to settle. The Urug-
uayans, world champions in 1930
and 1950, say their tiny country
should win the championship
once every 20 years, thus tak-
ing the Jules Rimet Cup in 1970.
For the Brazilians, the loss to
Uruguay in Maracana Stadium
in 1950 in Rio still is a stinging
memory.
Brazil had built a huge sta-
dium for the world champion-
ship and hoped to win its first
title.

Both m a y o r a l candidates

night, after a campaigi often
marked by racial overtones.
"Our problems are great but
not insurmountable," their joint
statement said. "We can only
