Sunday New York-OiFD - It'll be S. R. O. sorry, radio only for New York sports fans who don't hold tickets to Yankee Stadium but who want to fol low Sunday's National Foot ball League championship game between the Green Bay Packers and New York Gi ants. A federal judge Friday up held the NFL's blackout TV policy when he refused to lift the local television ban on the game. Judge Edward Weinfcld held that relief from such restrictions should come from Congress and not from the courts. The game thus will be blacked out, as originally planned, within a 75-mile ra dius of New York City but it will be broadcast over radio beginning at 11 o'clock today (PST). The radio broadcast will actually be the only way New York fans will learn about the game because all nine of New York's metropoli tan newspapers are on strike. Oppose Blackout Three Long Island petition ers claimed that the local TV blackout of the game violated anti-trust laws and named the NFL, the Giants and the Na tional Broadcasting Company as defendants. Sen. Thomas J. Dodd, ID- Conn.,) a member of the Sen ate anti-monoply subcomitlee, said the TV blackout is "need less and an arbitrary violation of the public interest." He said he plans to draw up an amendment to the anti-trust laws which would prevent such blackouts. Some New York fans, meanwhile, will journey to such points as Stratford, Conn., and Philadelphia, just outside the 75-mile blackout radius, to watch the game. NCAA-AAU Argument Unsolved Chicago - (UPH - President Kennedy's offer to help settle the differences between the NCAA-sponsored athletic fed erations and the AAU appear ed Saturday to be going no where. The United Slates Track and Field federation said it "gladly" accepted the presi dential intervention, adding that the basic Issue for arbi tration is a "method whereby the AAU and the federation can conduct their own pro grams separately through the period agreed upon without threat in elibilily for inter national competition." Not Interested Informed of the USTFF statement, AAU Director Don ald Hull said in New York that "we are really not in terested in the view point of an unrecognized organization recently established by some disgruntled track coaches. This agreed group," said Hull, "is trying to muscle into control and is in direct con flict with rules of the national Olympic Committee and the International Amateur Ath letic federation." Hull said the AAU would have its "own decision" on the presidential offer.

(UPI) Blue Team Upsets Favored Gray, 10-6 Montgomery, Ala. -lUPH- The invading Yankees, paced by Michigan State tackle J 1 m Kanicki, upset the favored Rebels, 10-6, Saturday in the silver anniversary of the Blue Gray football game. Kanicki, heaviest man on the slippery field at 265, re covered two fumbles, pounced on a h.. 1 punt, kicked a 40-yard ield goal and an ex tra point. His steady line backing bot tled up the southern offense which was hurt by a muddy field following an all night rain. The Blues scored their only touchdown lale in the second period after Georgia Tech full back Mike McNamcs was hit hart at the line of scrimmage and Kanicki speared the loose ball at inidfield. Nine plays later Ohio State fullback Bob Butts crunched over from the one. Kanicki's kick was good. Big Play The big play in the march was a twisting 19 yard run through a nest of Rebel de fenders by quarterback Pistol Pete Smith of Michigan State. The brilliant dodging gave the invaders a first down on the Gray 15. Title Bout Discussed New York-iUPH - President Tom Bolan of Championship Sports, Inc., said Saturday he hoped lo have the return Sonny Liston-Floyd Patterson heavyweight title fight "in the announcing stage" by Monday or Tuesday. One of the purposes of con ferences Saturday and Sunday was to decide whether the fight would be staged al Balti more in March or at Las Vegas, Nov., in April, he ex plained. Promoter Al Bolan, young er brother of Tom. was sched uled lo give Patterson a com plete fill-in Saturday on the relatives merits of Baltimore and Las Vegas as a fight site. Al visited Las Vegas on Thursday and Baltimore on Wednesday. He and Patterson were slated to meet in New York Saturday. Although Patterson lost his crown to Liston on a first round knockout at Chicago, Sept. 25, their relurn-boul contract gives Floyd the right to pick the promoter, the site and the date. He apparently already has picked Champion ship Sports to promote again for him.

Cf Hornung For Championship Grid Game New York - UPI! - Coach Vince Lombardi of the Green Bay Packers pronounced Paul Horning in "perfect" condi- tion Saturday and then deep - cued the mystery surrounding his star halfback by refusing to say whether he would start Sunday against the New York Giants. Lombardi's uncertainty - or evasiveness - about Hornung, who scored a record 19 points in last year's 37-0 Packer rout at Green Bay, left observers somewhat battled on the eve of the National Foot ball league championship game. "How's Horning?" was the first question shot at Lom bardi Friday as he was col lared for a news conference a few hours after his Packers had arrived by plane from Green Bay. "Perfect," Lombardi replied with a big smile. But then, wncn he was asked whether Hornung would start on Sunday, the Packer coach answered: "I'll know better at game time." Why the uncertainty? "Well, the other boy (Tom Moore) has been playing most of the season and doing a good job." Will it depend on the con dition of the field?
