Federal Suit
Threat Balked
Baseball Boss
New York -(CPU- Commis
sioner Ford Frick told a fed
eral court the only reason he
did not intervene in the minor
leagues' television problem is
because he feared such a
move might bring anti-trust
action against baseball.
Frick testified to that ef
fect Tuesday as the first wit
ness in a $250,000 damage
suit brought against him and
the 16 major league clubs by
Frank D. Lawrence, president
of the defunct Portsmouth,
Va., club of the Piedmont
League.
Former minor league offi
cials are scheduled to add
their testimony today.
In his suit, Lawrence
charged that he was forced to
suspend operations because of
an "invasion" of the Ports
mouth club's territory by tele
casts and radio broadcasts of
major league games
Under direct examination,
Frick said he had adopted a
hands-off policy on the tick
lish television question be
cause he feared the Depart
ment of Justice might con
strue as "collusion" any at
tempt to bring major and
minor league officials togeth
er in an efofrt to reach an
agreement in television pol
icy. PILOTS SAIL
