Butts' lawyers Sharpen
Arguments For Finish
ATLANTA UPH - Attorneys
in Wallace Butts' $10 million li
bel suit against the Saturday Eve
ning Post sharpened their final
arguments Saturday for the cur
tain ringer this week to one of col
lege football's sharpest controversies.
The trial was in recess Saturday
and Sunday following two week:
of testimony and arguments m
federal court. The 12-man jury is
expected to get the case late
Monday after final summations
are concluded and Federal Judge
Lewis R. Morgan instructs them
Butts, the round little man who
once led powerful football teams
from the University of Georgia to
Southeastern Conference champ
ionships and into the nation's
bowl games, was pictured alter
nately Friday as a lover of night
life and a man mined by a slan
derous story.
The Post claimed in an issue last
March that Butts, while atheltic
director at Georgia, gave away
football secrets to Alabama coach
Paul (Bear) Bryant prior to last
fall's Alabama-Georgia football
game.
Both heatedly denied the allega
tions and both sued for $10 mil
lion. Bryant's suit is still (lending in
the federal court in Birmingham
where -Post attorneys are trying
to get it moved to another state
because they claim they can't get
a fair trial in the popular coach's
home territory.
Shouts To Jury
In the opening of final argu
ments in the Butts suit Friday,
Butts' attorney shouted to the
jury that the career of the form
er coach and athletic director
was "ruined" and Butts was
"heart broken and a shell of his
former self."
"March 18 was the blackest
day to Wallace Butts that could
ever befall any man," the attor
ney, Allen Lockerman, said.
"That was the day the article
hit the newsstands. On that day
Wallace Butts became ashamed,
heartbroken, just a shell of him
self." Post attorney Welborn Cody
contended that Butts "snapped"
because of too. much night life
and had plunged to the point
where his best friends said he
had "lost his character."
Cody said Butts was asked to
resign as coach after 22 years
because of his personal conduct
but was permitted to remain at the
school as athletic director.
"This same night life" led lo
Butts' forced resignation as ath
letic director, Cody said.
Tells Of Notes
Speaking of the notes Atlanta
insuianccman George Burnett les
hified he made in overhearing a
telephone conversation between
Butts and Bryant nine days be
fore Alabama walloped Georgia
35-0, Cody said: "These notes
were made by an amateur, not
a football coach.
"A lot of them don't make any
sense. But there is a lot in these
notes."
Cody emphasized a notation
Burnett made on the final page
of the notes: "Give Wally a ring
Sunday.
"This call (Sunday) from Bear
Bryant to Wally Butts lasted an
hour and seven minutes," Cody
said "And Butts and Bryant now
say they do not remember such
a call."
Gilchrist
Redeems
Self In Game
By United Press International
Cookie Gilchrist, reputed "bad
boy" of professional football, has
proved again that he's just as
tough on the field.
The 243-pound fullback for the
Buffalo Bills, whose numerous
off-the-field scrapes have done al
most as much to keep him in the
headlines as his bone-crunching
running, helped power the Bills
to a 23-8 American Football
League exhibition victory over
the New York Jets Friday night.
Gilchrist scored from the two-
yard line and piled up 64 yards
in nine carries.
A crowd of 19,142 saw the Bills
chalk up 20 points in the first
half and coast to victory behind
Gilchrist, quarterback Jackie
Kemp and Mack Yoho's kicking.
At Bethlehem, Pa., 14,000 fans
turned out to see rookie Terry
Nofsinger throw an 80-yard touch
down pass to Red Mack and lead
the Pittsburgh Steelers to a 24-13'
triumph over the Philadelphia
Eagles in a National Football
League pre-season contest.
In the only other NFL
game Friday night, the St. Louis
Cardinals edged the San Francis
co Forty Nincrs, 24-22, on Pren
tice Gautt's one-yard plunge in
the last minute of play.
'Well I'd say Jack Solomons

Jersey rellectccl. Jack dirt a

How long has Jones co-man
aged the Tiger?
"I became associated with him
in the summer of 1959," Jersey
recalled. "You see I had been

AMERICAS---

I-' - .
The Spirit of America is a superb product of three years of development. The 3-ton racer is powered by aJ-47 jet engine and rides on the 600-mph Goodyear tires.
MEM LAUD SKI RECORD!
407 11 St M GOODYEAR TIM
Monday, August 5th Craig: Breedlove, with
a wingless jet, Goodyear tires and 170 pounds
of heart, hope and guts brought the land
speed record back to America.
7:15 a.m. The silence o the Bonneville Salt Flats
was shattered by the whine of a 35 foot long jet racer.
That whine became a roar as Craig Breedlove in his
Spirit of America thundered into the record books.
His speed: 388.49 mph one way, the other way . . .
428.37 mph! For an average of 407.45 miles an hour!
Smashing the record held by England's John Cobb
of 394.2 mph. A 1947 record that many experts
thought could never be topped.
One of the most important problems that Breedlove
faced when he first decided to give the land speed
record a try was summed up in a statement that
appeared in a leading automotive magazine:
". . . there is no point in thinking of a land
speed record car if there are no tires- that
will stand up to the required speed."
Goodyear engineers accepted the unique . . . almost
impossible challenge . . . and . . .
A TIRE IS BORN
In his initial talk with Goodyear engineers, Breedlove
said,
"I need a tire that can take it. One that's
practically indestructible. I'm going to go
400 to 500 miles an hour. That's two to
three times as fast as they drive at Day
tona or Indianapolis. This has got to be
more than just a racing tire. When I get
to top speed, the tires will have about 100
tons of centrifugal force trying to pull
them to pieces. That's why I came to
Goodyear because you people have the
know-how."
Goodyear engineers began to design, produce, and
test the land speed tires. Most of the tire was cord . . .
for strength. The cord was treated with Goodyear'i
exclusive 3-T triple -tempering, triple -toughening
process ... the same 3-T processing that goe3 into
all Goodyear auto tires.
Each tire was tested on Goodyear's multi-stage dy
namometer at speeds in excess of 600 miles per hour.
Not one failed!
LmilT'''0"''-'"' '"' j-iii, mm-'
Goodyear engineer checks 4-foot high tires. Special
Goodyear high-speed dynamometer test simulated
the 12,110 pounds of centrifugal force that is exerted
at the tread surface at speeds of more than 600 mph.
Craig Breedlove first American to hold the Land
Speed Record in 35 years. Breedlove built the "Spirit"
in his garage. His estimate of a $10,000 car was ex
ceeded ten-fold, before the car even left for the Salt.
TIRE OF THE FUTURE
In the making of Breedlove's record breaking tires,
Goodyear scientists and engineers came up with de
velopments and discoveries that will affect the tires
you drive for many years to come.
Goodyear engineers say that the tire of the future
may well be built around a key design feature of
these land speed record tires.
When Craig Breedlove and his Spirit of America
started at the far end of the 10-mile black stripe
that marks' the Bonneville course, he knew he was
riding on the finest tires in the world. With that
worry off his mind ... he sped to the record speed of
407.45 mph . . . and became the fa? f n"t man on earth.
Torfay you con get the benefit of Goodyear's superior '
high-speed developments in great, new Tufsyn tires.
Built only by Goodyear, Tufsyn tires deliver up to
25 more durability, giving far more mileage. You
can buy these Goodyear tires in all sizes for all care
from your Goodyear Dealer or Store . . . today.
