1 THE MICHIGAN DAILY ds Blank Giants, Move into 4 Pro-Player Union Accepted By NFL Commissioner Bell WASHINGTON () -Pro foot- ball Commissioner Bert Bell, act- ing singlehandedly, yesterday granted recognition to a National Football League players union. Bell made his bombshell an- nouncement before the House An- titrust subcommittee, which is surveying professional sports oper- ations. He said he decided to, accept the NFL players association as. a bar- gaining agency without consulting club owners. The owners last winter had re- fused to recognize the association, formed during the 1956 season. They reacted to Bell's surprise de-' cision mainly with approval, al- though some questioned the Com- missioner's authority to make in- dependent agreements with any outside individual or organization. Miller Gratified Creighton Miller, a former Notre Dame back who is attorney for the association, said he was "most gratified" as long as Bell could act for the league. The commissioner, had told the subcommittee he recognized the association "on behalf of the league." While he said he had.not sought prior assent from club officials, he testified he "told some of them" what he planed to do. Bell announced In a prepared statement at the outset of the final day of the football phase of the subcommittee's investigation that he is prepared to "negotiate immediately" with association rep- resentatives "concerning any dif- ferences between the players and the clubs that may exist." Sore Point Failure to recognize the organi- zations previously had been a sore point with several subcommittee members. Miller said he would confer with Bell at the All-Star football game in Chicago next Friday. The attorney said the associa- tion is-'not a union in the ordinary senese" but patterned after the major league baseball players' as- sociation. Initial subjects for negotiation, he said, would be a contract clause guaranteeing pay for in- jured players and pay for presea- son games over and above contract salaries. Miller emphasized the associa- tion had no intention of bargain- ing for individual player salaries. Ith primary function, he said, would be to negotiate on working conditions' and possibly a mini- mum salary for the league. Oliver's 6 Heads Tam Golf Field CHICAGO (P) - Ed "Porky" Oliver, whose four children 'keep him busy as a main breadwinner on the tourney circuit, shoved his way ahead of the younger set yes- terday with a fabulous 66 to take the first round lead in the $25,- 000 All-American golf meet at Tam O'Shanter. The 40-year-old pro, now regis- tering out of Canton, Mass., never missed a green as he putted for a birdie or an-eagle on every hole in shooting a pair of 33's against Tam's par 36-36-72. Biss Casper Jr., 26, of Bonita, Calif., upheld the hope of the younger players by carding a 34- 33-67 among late' finishers. Followed by Snead Oliver, who has finished in the money in 10 out of 14 starts with- out a victory this season for earn- ings of a mere $3,789, was followed closely by 45-year-old Sam Snead and. two comparative upstarts. * Coming in with 68s in the chase for a $3,500 first prize - a prelude to next week's $101,200 "World Championship" for men pros - were Snead, Shelley Mayfield, 33, of Jericho, N.Y., and Tommy Bolt, 36, of Los Angeles. Bunching the field were eight 69 shooters. They included two younger hopes - Paul Harney, 28, of Worcester, Mass., and Arnold Palmer, 27, Latrobe, Pa.
