Donald C. Walker, attorney for the Portland club, said the deci sion by Judge Gus Solomon will be appealed to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Fran cisco.

The Class AAA Portland club Is asking $1,800,000 damages, an injunction to halt the monopoly control of ball players by the majors and a new agreement on the televising of major league ball tames. Walker said the aim of the suit is "to break up the monopolistic control of all baseball talent." "We (the Portland club) can't even sign up our own bat boy," he asserted. "We could have a kid right in our own organization and the majors could outbid us." He said they can draft any player from the minor leagues for $25,- Rupp, Wildcats Show Come Back Ability United Press International .

As for televising major league baseball, Walker declared: "We are not attempting to stop it . . . We fay . . . there is a reasonable solu tion so the public can enjoy major league television and the Beavers can exist. There is no point in them televising their games into our game lime." The suit was filed July 30 against the major league baseball clubs, the leagues' presidents, and Ford C. Fnck, baseball commis sioner. Judge Solomon said he was bound by a previous U.S. Supreme Court ruling that major league baseball was not interstate com merce. He said the anti-trust laws do not apply other than in inter state commerce. "It this is a matter of first im pression, I do not think there is any question that the big leagues are engaged in interstate com nierce," Judge Solomon said "But I am bound by the Supreme Court of the United Slates." stamping grounds.

Robinson, who has held one ver sion or another of the world middleweight championship five times, had just finished his first fight in 20 months a second round technical knockout of hope ful Bob Young. He belted Young off his feet five times in the second round Monday night, but was far Trom satisfied with his first perform ance since he regained the world title from Carmen Basilio March 25, 1958. "I missed a lot, but I guess that 20 months makes a difference," he said. "I'd planned to go four or five rounds, give the people a good show," the old champion said. "But he hurt me in the first when he hit me in the face and that changed my attitude com pletely. I had to get it over with as fast as' I could." Young, the New England light heavyweight champion from Providence, R.I., caught Robinson with a good, solid left hook late in the first round of a scheduled 10- rounder. He spent most of the fight on his back. ARCHERY GIFTS FOR THE SPORTSMINDED FAMILY! See Our Fine Line of Archery Tackle Learn the (un of Bow Shooting!

IMtESS The deeply entrenched National Football League, seeking to avoid any head-on collision with the em bryonic American League in the bidding for top-flight talent, faces the possibility of a player revolt within its own ranks. The first indication that some of the NFL's players might jump to Ihe rival circuit came Munduy when two members of the San Francisco -tilers said they want to check the possibility of switching lo the AFL. Defensive specialist Dick Moe- gle and end R. C. Owens were Ihe first NFL players to announce any such intentions. Two others 4!iers Fred Dugan and Jim Hidlon expressed a de sire to play with another club, but not necessarily one in the AFL. The reason for all four was the saint': We're not playing enough and maybe we can do better else where. Officials of the two leagues have said they would honor each other's player contracts. However, liud Adams, owner of the Houston franchise in the AFL, has said he would like to have certain Texans now playing with the Chicago Cardinals of the NFL namely King Hill, John Crow and Bohhy Joe Conrad and will try to pry them loose. Mucgle. also a Texan who played offense for Rice, said he would be interested in hooking up with Dallas in the new league. "1 know all those people in Texas," he said, "and I know I've got a lot of football left in me. 1 certainly want to play some where." Said Owens: "It may be I could play more in the new league. I inioy nature's finest COUPON SHl dno Faces Revolt can't help feeling my career is passing me hy." In Philadelphia, acting NFL Commissioner Austin Gunsel said "as lar as I know there has been nu serious talk of players jump ing to the new league. As for the future that takes a crystal ball to see." CiunscI explained that NFL clubs are in a position to prevent any player jumps before May 1, l'.ioi. Players, he said, arc signed to one-year contracts with one year options for renewal. If Ihe club does not pick up tho option. Gunsel. said, a player Is free to do as he pleases. "Of course." the commissioner added, "anyone can jump to the AFL, and it would he up to tho club to do something about it. A contract might he enforceable in law, and if a club felt a player was Millicicntly important, it might take action." WSU Wins Squeaker PULLMAN, Wash.
