HOUSTON, Tex. , (AP) The
Houston Sports Association bought

chise here Tuesday night clear
ing the biggest obstacle between

ation.
The official, who asked his
name not be used, said the esti
mated $100,000 indemnity the Hous
ton Buffs get from Minneapolis
St. Paul owner Calvin Griffith's

the Buffs into selling its franchise
to the HSA.
The HSA holds a National
League franchise for Houston in
1962.
The purchase price was not dis
closed, but estimates put it near
$400,000.
The HSA made what it called a
final offer of $362,500 last Oct. 21
after almost two years of dicker
ing. W. H. (Bill) Hopkins, presi
dent of the Buffs, turned it down
and demanded $600,000. The team
lost $180,000 in 1960 and $135,000
in 1959.
A week ago Ihe agreement be
tween Griffith and the minor
league was announced.
The HSA bought the Buffs' Amer
ican Association franchise and will
operate the Class AAA team in
1961. The group also bought the
two players the Buffs own, th3
physical equipment of the team
and the equity in the American
Association.
The HSA still must satisfy the
American Association, but thai
isn't regarded as a major prob
lem now because the HSA will
have a vote on any indemnity as a
league member.
The only other problem facing
the HSA now is where the un
named team will play.
Harris County has set a second
bond election for Jan. 31 to seek
approval from volers to build the
stadium with $22 million lax-bock-ed
