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 KILKENNY STARS daily sports NIGHT EDITOR: PAT ATKINS 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."

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.

Uruguayans drafted a strong protest to the International Soc- cer Federation on Monday, 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. Everything favOred the host team, not only because it would have a partisan crown but be- cause of its performance prior to the world contest. The Brazilians were leading 1-0, 12 minutes before the end, when the Uruguayans came back with two quick goals. "a massive job ahead" but said, "I stand ready to assist in a smooth transfer." Many observers had felt that the bitter runoff campaign had divided N e w ar k along racial lines. However, in at least one major predominantly white ward, Gib- son polled more votes than ex- pected. T h r e e councilmen indicted with Addonizio, two of them blacks, also lost. Irvine Turner, the first black ever elected in Newark, lost to the Rev. Dennis Westbrooks, a Gibson man. Cal- vin West, the first black to win a city wide office, lost his at- large seat, as Gibson's slate pre- vailed. Both m a y o r a l candidates pleaded for harmony on election night, after a campaigi often marked by racial overtones. "Our problems are great but not insurmountable," their joint statement said. "We can only meet them head on, however, if we can learn to trust each other and work together." 10 10iz 15 171, 171VV Yesterday's Results Chicago at San Francisco, Inc.
