Bosman, 12-8, faced only 28 batters, one over the limit. He . gave up a bunt single to Cesar Tovar leading off the game and then retired 16 batters in a row before walking loser Jim Kaat, 10-9, in the sixth. Major Leag AMFRICAN LEAGUE aggi ng Tovar then rapped into a dou- ble play and the 6-foot-3, 210- pounder retired the Twins the rest of the way. He struck out seven. The Senators, who only had five hits, scored the only run in the first as Wayne Comer got a one-out bunt single and moved to third when Harmon Kille- brew threw wild to first. Frank Howard was walked intentional- ly. But Reichart bounced out as the Twins missed a double play, Comer scoring. :"{.;,i:;r: ",ir: r}; ,",+ ,"f r::r;:"" :i+ lfa ". + u ue Standings NATIONAL LEAGUE East Twi tns Red power CINCINNATI - Cincinnati crashed three home runs, in- cluding the 40th of the year by major league leader Johnny Bench, and Jim Merritt record- ed his 17th victory last night as the Reds bombed the New York Mets 6-1. The Reds jumped on Mets' starter Ray Sadecki, 7-4, in the fourth as Bench and Lee May unloaded consecutive homers, Bench's homer followed a lead- off walk by Tony Perez. May's homer was his 25th of the sea- son. Perez hit his 36th home run of the year in the sixth and smack- ed a two-run double following singles byMerritt and Pete Rose in the eighth.

Judge Cooper's decision was but a meaningless skirmish, the opening volley of a legal struggle that must inevitably wind up in the lap of the Supreme Court. The court has seen the reserve clause before, for the clause is as old and controversial as organized pro ball itself. Like many other fallen- idols, baseball started out as an amateur pastime, growing immensely in popularity during the years immediately after the civil war. Inevitably, interest grew to such a point that winning became paramount to all other considerations. Amateurism became so much bunk, and one New York City team in the early 1870's was employed to the man by the city's Sanitation= Department, which meant that the tax- payers were footing the bill, some $30,000 per year. Under the table incentives kept good players bounding from one team to another like so many over heated jumping beans. Finally, some fellows in Cincinnati got wise to the whole system and formed an open, honest, no holds barred pro- fessional team. The American sports scene would never be the same. The Red Stockings, while not exactly getting Namathian salaries, did manage to compile a 69-0 record, and if there's one thing Americans love, it's a winner. With pro teams emerging in great numbers in the 1870's and salaries put above the board, owners had to wave bigger and bigger salaries in front of the panting players' noses to lure them into the fold, and it didn't take a genius to figure out that this was bad for business. So a clever man who owned a Chicago club corralled some of the best talent around, formed the National League in 1876, and three years later rammed the reserve clause into its constitution. The man's name was William A. Hulbert, and consider- ing his contributions to the game, it is surprising that Abner Doubleday, who didn't invent the game and never thought he did, hogs all of the glory. Hulbert, after all, was the entrepreneur, the man who made it happen. We don't hon- or whoever it was that invented the automobile, we laud Henry Ford for mass-producing it. Certainly Hulbert de- serves some credit for making baseball available to us all. And so pro baseball meandered toward the 1920's, appar- ently without a care in the world. Of course, gambling among players was rampant, but no one was terribly impressed. Finally, the Black Sox scandal blew the whistle on the more flagrant abuses. A crackdown on gambling would take the sport as well as the money out of the game, and, perhaps motivated by a fear of loss of income, a suit was brought by some players chal- lenging baseball's reserve clause on the grounds that it violated anti-trust laws. After Congress and the Supreme Court played catch with the question for a few years, the high court finally decided that baseball was exempt from anti-trust laws. Now Curt Flood has again challenged the system, and I cannot help but feel that once the dust is settled, the re- serve clause, old and faithful servant though it once was, must die simply because it is outmoded. DE RECRUI-TI s EET TO CO iTi I DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS- MEN gather yesterday at the Capitol after the House voted, 289-114, to override the Presi- dent's veto of a $4.4 billion edu- cation appropriation bill. Voting with the majority were, from left, House Speaker John McCormack of Massachusetts, George Mahon of Texas and Carl Albert of Oklahoma. -Associated Press MANAGER SAYS 'NO' TE Ali-Frazier bout set?? House overrides veto ATLANTA (A) -- Promoters confidently proclaimed yester- day that the way is virtually clear for Joe Frazier-Cassius Clay heavyweight fight in At- lanta, but Frazier's manager immediately branded it non- sense. "It's a lie. There is no truth to it at all," said Yank Durham in Stateline, Nev., where Frazier is appearing with his rock mu- sic group in the lounge of a ca- sino-hotel on the shores of Lake Tahoe. Durham's wet blanket was tossed over the proposed fight less than three hours after state Sen. Leroy Johnson said only t h e fighters' signatures on a contract stood in the way of an Oct. 26 bout in 5,000-seat City Auditorium. Clay, t h e former champion stripped of his title after con- viction on charges of refusing to report for military service, at- tended the Atlanta news con- ference in which Johnson made his announcement. He said he would be willing to fight Fraz- ier here. "I don't know who they are or what they are trying to do," Durham said when informed of Johnson's plans. "We aren't dickering with Cassius Clay. We aren't interested in dickering with Cassius Clay." But Durham left the door open for a possible bout with Clay next year. "We have a commitment to fight Bob Foster," Durham said. "Clay will not be fought until we fulfill our obligation to Foster_" "If Clay has a license, then we'll fight him next year. Let him fight someone else and prove to me he has a license." Robert Kassel, a New York attorney whose Sports Action Inc. sponsored the Frazier-Ellis fight and would underwrite the Atlanta fight, also attended the news conference a n d said he was confident. "All that is really necessary now is for us to complete the negotiations with the fighters, sign the contract and have the fight," Kassel said. of educa tion St. Mary's (Cal.) names woman to be tennis coach MORAGO, Calif. (P)-All-male St. Mary's College has jumped ahead of the women's liberation drive by naming Lynne Abbes Rolley as intercollegiate tennis coach. The pretty 21-year-old brunette from Orinda, Calif., is one of the youngest and no doubt prettiest coaches of a men's team in the country. St. Mary's officials said Wednesday they did not know of any other woman coaching a men's team on the college varsity level. "I'm really thrilled about this," Mrs. Rolley said at a news con- ference. "I like working with men." Mrs. Rolley, who was ranked seventh among U.S. women tennis players before retiring in 1967, has been a teaching professional three years. "I'm teaching my husband how to play tennis, too," she said. Recently she has been an assistant to Kevin Merrick, the tennis pro at Orinda Country Club. Merrick, also coach at the University of California, recommended Lynne for the St. Marys job. St. Mary's is admitting women for the first time this fall, and Mrs. Rolley plans to start a women's team. The Catholic school's en- rolment is about 1,100 and about 130 women are expected to enroll for the coming term. For the past several years, the school has had no tennis coach. A player-captain has been in charge of the squad. Victor Gill, last year's player-captain, is one of the lettermen returning from the team that was 4-10 last season. Mrs. Rolley, who won several national titles as a junior player, WASHINGTON (P)- President Nixon broke even on two big veto battles in the House yesterday, winning on an $18 billion bill and losing on a $4.4 billion measure. The House re-passed and sent to the Senate the $4.4 billion appropriation bill for the Office of Education for the pres- ent fiscal year. It will become law over the President's 'objections if the Senate follows the House lead and gives it a two- thirds vote of approval. The $18 billion bill financing the De- partment of Housing and Urban Affairs. the Veteran Administration and a score of smaller agencies was killed by the House vote sustaining the President's veto. It does not go to the Senate. A new measure to replace it will be started through Congress after Labor Day. Ronald Ziegler, White House press se retary, said Nixon was pleased that his veto of the independent offices appro- priations bill was sustained and now hopes that Congress will proceed prompt- ly with a measure in line with his recom- mendations. On the House's refusal to accept the President's veto- of the education bill, Ziegler said, "We will see what steps need to be taken to minimize the harmful consequences which result from the over- ride." The agencies financed in the larger bill are receiving operating funds now through an emergency bill which expires on Oct. 15. The vote to re-pass the education bill was 289 to 114. That was 20 more than the reqpired two-thirds. The bigger Independent Offices bill got a majority, 203 to 195, but fell 63 votes short of the needed two-thirds. A major factor in defeat of the $18 billion measure was refusal of many Re- publicans to vote for it after having sup- ported re-passage of the education meas- ure. In his two vetoes last Tuesday, the President said the aggregate increase of almost a billion dollars in the bills was inflationary and could drive up prices or make a tax hike necessary. Democratic leaders disputed this, say- ing the responsibility for inflation must be shared by the President and claiming he was not putting proper emphasis on education and human needs. reVA a sure They argued during yesterday's debate that the administration was spending too much money on missiles, bombers and the supersonic transport program. Nixon vetoed the education bill because Congress put $453 million more into it than the requested. Much of the extra money was for elementary and secondary education programs and for aid to schools crowded by children of federal workers. The school aid goes to an estimated 350 congressional districts. The I stateme be one today's for Aca the dea The i cruiting by Smit tached ti drawn i business Gordon lege anc berger.
