Wednesday. November 10, 1SS4 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUrTE 1TC7S SIPODIFLTS Government Presents Boxing Case Arguments Before Supreme Court Washington (U.R) The I claims that Joe Louis, former government, pressing its monop oly case against big-time box- ing interests, was scheduled to present arguments before the Supreme Court today that the sport is subject to the federal anti-trust laws. A government suit charging monopoly, in. boxing was dis missed by lower, courts, which referred to the 1953 Supreme Court ruling that baseball is not a business in interstate com merce and therefore not subject to the federal anti-trust laws. Named as defendants in the boxing action are three .corpor ations the International Box ing Clubs of New - York and Chicago and Madison Square Garden Corp. and two individ uals James D. Norris and Ar thur N. .Wirtz. . Norris . and Wirtz, together with the Gar den, own 80 per cent of the stock in the two IBC clubs.

Congress, in devising the anti-trust laws, intended' to ex empt all organized sports from them and that the government is now attempting to bring all sports, including baseball, under the law "without the possible embarrassment of a frontal at tack upon the national pastime of baseball ..." : Bighorn Sheep At Native Range Lakeview, Ore. -U.F9 Rim rock bighorn sheep, which were exterminated by hunters in Ore gon in about 1916, have been re turned to the native range in the Hart mountains east of here. Some 20 sheep were transport ed by truck from the interior of British. Columbia Monday and re leased into a 35-acre holding pen on the abrupt west face of Hart mountain. : . Bob Mace,, big game specialist for the Oregon game commission, said the sheep were trapped near Williams Lake in British Columbia. The British Columbia Game Department and the Ore gon game commission cooperated in trapping and transporting the animals. The one adult ram, 12 ewes and seven lambs showed no ap parent - distress from the 36 hour trip. The game commission plans to stock other parts of the bighorn ancestral range from the small herd.

Even a lot of 49er fans thought so when official Tay Brown (right) blew the whistle on Los Angeles Rams' Tank Younger (left) taking 49er Defensive Back Joe Arenas for a piggy-back ride across the goal line in San Francisco's Kezar i Stadium.
