4 * 4 t U 4 * F T I THE MICHIGAN DAILY i . -0 ± 1, R Page Eight Wednesday, July 22, 1970 STADIUM CONFLICTS ARISE.j/'m"i NFL owners meet no progress reported By The Associated Press Pro football club owners and players still were deadlocked in their dispute over player pension funds yesterday with the College All-Star game only 10 days off. The owners of the 26 National Foot- ball League teams met behind closed doors in a mid-town hotel, breaking last night without any news of developments. Meanwhile, in Chicago and Baltimore, conflicts over the use of stadiums developed that could cause football's Bears and Colts serious problems. Across town in a Broadway hotel in New York, some of the mem- bers of the NFL Players Association waited for some word of progress by the owners in meeting their pension demands.. Many veteran players were training on their own and most of the clubs had opened their rookie camps but barred them to veterans. Kansas City, which is due to play the College All-Stars July 31 in Chicago, went on record Monday. as saying the veterans would not report to camp, even if it should be opened, until a settlement was reached. A spokesman for the Chicago Tribune, which sponsors the All- Star game, said ticket sales had been lagging a bit but not seriously. He said time was running out but the game probably could be played if the Chiefs were to get-to camp by Saturday at the latest. The All- Stars are working out in the Chicago area and have been for some time with the exception of a one-day sympathy strike in connection with the Players' -Association. The Chicago Bears, with 50,000 tickets already sold for the game, sought an injunction in Cook County (Chicago) Circuit Court to permit use of Northwestern University's Dyche Stadium for their Sept. 27'contest with the Philadelphia Eagles. Monday night, the Evanston City Council tabled by a 9-8 vote a resolution allowing use of Dyche Stadium for that National Foot- ball League home opener for the Bears. The injunction suit was filed against the city of Evanston and Northwestern University which previously obtained Big Ten permission to open Dyche Stadium to the Bears. The Baltimore Orioles, meanwhile, outlined their reasons for holding firm in a date conflict at Memorial Stadium which may force the Baltimore Colts to shift a home football date. There is a possibility that the Colts' scheduled game with the Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs on Monday night, Sept. 28 may be moved to Washington's Robert F. Kennedy Stadium. £1fr1!tn Dat Vol. LXXX; No. 50-S Ann Arbor, Michigan-Wednesday, July 22, 1970 Ten Cents RE CE, KA : SAS I FTER FATAL SHOT -Associated Press Don't tread on me St. Louis' Joe Torre and his Cardinal mates must wonder when the treading will stop.

PAUL (A') Denny McLain, unable to com- plete his previous five starts, finally recorded his first victory since his suspension was lifted, but ironically was forced to leave the game when .a line drive sent him writhing to the ground in Detroit's 5-2 victory over the Minnesota Twins last night. McLain left the game with a six-hitter in the eighth inning after Cesar Tovar's line shot caught him on a leg. But Fred Scherman came on in relief to give McLain his first victory since rejoining the Tigers July 1. He had been tagged with two losses. Tiger spokesmen said McLain suffered a badly bruised shin- bone.

The s t o c k y right-hander struck out only three batter's but easily collared the league's best hitting team. McLain, 26, was cruising along with a two-hitter in the fifth inning when Rick Renick glan- ced an infield single off Don Wert at third and George Mit- terwald followed with a tower- ing home run into the left field seats. But the Tigers already had given McLain five runs-two on Willie Horton's 17th homer in Detroit's four-run fifth - in charging to their sixth victory in seven games. Al Kaline drove in another run with a sacrifice fly and Mickey Stanley drove in one with a single. The scrappy McLain actually started off the scoring in the third with a leadoff single. He moved to third on one of Dick McAuliffe's four hits and came in when Cesar Tovar threw wildly at second on Stanley's grounder. Pepitone d is appears HOUSTON OP) -- Joe Pepi- tone was not in his Houston Astro uniform last night, and reportedly had left the Astro- dome saying he was going on the voluntary retired list. Pepitone, who did disappear- ing acts with the New York Yankees twice last season, had been feuding with Richardson and had asked the general man- ager to put him on waivers so that he could go to some other club. The trouble between Pepi- tone and Richardson apparent- ly stemmed from an elbow in- jury Pepitone suffered when hit by a pitched ball last week. Richardson had ordered t h e first baseman-outfielder to see the team physician and when the doctor ordered Pepitone into the hospital for treatment, he balked and asked to be put on waivers. 'M' swimmer Mahoney wins medal EDINBURGH W} _..- Bill Ma- honey of the University of Michigan, swimming for Can- ada, copped a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games yes- terday by winning the 100- meter breaststroke. Mahoney was timed in 1:09.00 to win by .04 over team- mate Peter Cross. Queen Eliza- beth was in attendance for the first time at the games and she presented Mahoney with his medal. It was Mahoney's second gold medal of the games. He had earlier won the ZO-meter breaststroke. Cronin testifies in ump suit BOSTON W/) -. American League President Joe Cronin said yesterday that umpires Al Salerno and Bill Valentine were "technically fair umpires" but he fired them-in 1968 because they were "arrogant" and failed to keep "an even temper."' Cronin related a series of in- justification for the umpires' dismissal at a hearing before National Labor Relations Board examiner David Davidson. Salerno "was in trouble throughout his career," Cronin said. With regard to Valentine, Cronin cited an incident in 1965 in which Valentine got into an argument with Minnesota Twins manager Sam Mele. Cronin said he believed Mele "took a swing at Valentine" but he said the umpire "antagon- ized" the situation by waving a finger in Mele's face. "The first essential of an umpire is to walk away from ani argument, not antagonize it," said Cronin, -Associated Press HIT BY A BULLET during a confrontation between 'police and young people in Lawrence, Kan., Merton Olds (left), 25, a graduate chemistry student at Kansas University leaves a hospital where he was treated for a gunshot wound in the leg. Meanwhile, a meeting, called by George Kimball (wearing hat and holding microphone at right), a leader of the Lawrence Liberation Front, was held to explain to the press what the group called "the other side of the story" of events leading to the confrontation. Student ret-1calls night of death in Kansas Special To The Daily (EDITOR'S NOTE: The following Is an eyewitness account of events on Monday night in Lawrence, Kan., when Harry "Nick" Rice was shot to death in a confrontation between youths and police. The description which follows was obtained in a telephone interview by Jonathan Miller with Tim Cragg, a journalism student at Kansas University.) The confrontation has center- ed on Oread Avenue, which is, just one block from the univer- sity. It leads up to the top of a hill where Kansas University (KU) is located. At one end of the street is the Gaslight Tavern and at the other end is the Rock Chalk Tavern. Is got there at about 9 p.m. on Monday night and as I arrived the cops were hustling people out of the Rock Chalk, they gave no reason, leave your beer and cigarettes, out. About 10 minutes earlier someone had opened a fire hy- drant at the top of the hill in an attempt to drain the city water supply. This was done because there is a professor at KU called Ling who is a real slumlord. For years he has been charging exhorbi- tant rents, especially to foreign students. He owned this house in the middle of Oread St. called "the White House" which he rented out to people. It is in shocking condition and no one will do anything about it so the students and hippies and people in general decided to burn it down and they opened a fire hydrant so that the fire depart- ment couldn't put it out. Anyway the police turned 'up so the people from the Rock Chalk went to the Gaslight. Then some kid drives a red VW into the middle of the street and says set it on fire 'cause he wanted the insurance, so some people tried, but WHB-TV in Kansas City said it was a gang of black youths, when it wasn't., By now it was about 9:45 when over this ridge the police emerged and one of them was yelling "shoot them, shoot the motherfuckers" and e v e r y- one ran towards the Gaslight and then there was this sudden sound like firecrackers, I guess there were 8 to 10 shots in 3 or 4 seconds. Nick Rice was about ten feet in front of me, he said "oh my God" and fell over. The police were lobbing tear gas and one of them fell about three feet from Nick who was lying there dying on the street, half on the grass. Two guys ran out of the Gaslight and brought Nick in and the door was shut. Outside the police were letting off gas and pointing their guns at the windows of the Gaslight. Suddenly the police left and people started to go home. The ambulance came to take away Nick. That was the last we saw of him. .- LAWRENCE, Kan.-It was quiet night as a "community patrol" of ci from police in parts of the city where and youths have resulted in two stude However, it was shattered early t rocked the city around 12:30 a.m. Thi the outside air conditioning unit at t town and several blocks from the sce There was no indication the bla disruptions.
