The suit to be filed charges that the NFL "has illegally adopted and maintained ... a system of authorizing of broadcasting of professional football games in such a manner as to restrain trade unlawfully in broadcasting, and to maintain a monopoly of the broadcasting” in home territories of member clubs. The action was prompted by a federal court decision in Philadelphia last November in which Judge Alan K. Grim outlawed restrictions on radio broadcasting of NFL contests.

Stage All Set For Opener Os World Series NEW YORK (INS) — Cleveland's favored Indians invaded Manhattan Island today and pitched camp at the Polo Grounds <o sharpen their war weapons for Wednesday’s World Seriee opener against the New York Giants. * With the biggest money-making playoff payoff Just around the corner, rival managers Leo Durocher and A1 Lopez are expected to name their opening game pitching selections when the two clubs hold final workouts at the Harlem ballyard. It is figured that the managers will nominate money hurlers Sal Maglle and Bob'Lemon to go at each other when the perennial spring rivals lock horns in their first post-reason struggle ever before upwards of 50,000 fans. But Cleveland’s Gay Senor and New York’s Lively Lip are making like they’ve got a secret, and it could be Johnny Antonelli against Lemon—or Early Wynn. I All are members of pitching’s upper society and no matter who gets the assignment it will be greeted without shock by sophisticated baseball fans who know only that Cleveland makes Its third world championship bid as an 8-to--5 choice. It's in the books that this Indian delegation has won 111 games, more than any other American League representative in history. Also apparent is that Lopez knows what his team can do because he’s blessed like the old lady in the shoe—with so many pitchers while Leo has few. Blase New Yorkers, accustomed to taking in their fall baseball at Yankee Stadium, and sometimes even, in Brooklyn, have opened their hearts and their pocketbooks in support of the dynamic Giants and their exciting billion dollar belter. Willie Mays. “Willie will win it," is the battlecry of diehard Giant fans who by tradition these rare outbursts with fingers crossed. And. certainly, when the dubs compete beginning at 1 p.m. EST, Wednesday, the 23-year-old kid who made "say hey” a national greeting, will be patrolling center field with all his magnificent^naturalness. The Giants have won their league title 15 times since 1900. Thejr’ve won the world crown four times, the last in 1933. In their most recent series effort the Du.» rochermen bowed to the Yankees of 1951 in six games. Cleveland, a pennant winner in 1920 and 1948, has never lost a World Series. The National League hasn’t won since i 946. With the Polo Grounds and Cleveland's Municipal Stadium representing the largest parks in the two leagues, winning shares are expected to hit an unprecedented scale of SIO,OOO. The first two games of the best-of-seven series is booked for New York, the next, three in Cleveland and the last two in New York. That the big show is popular and. that folks are anticipating a long run is illustrated by the fact that one-seat sets are being black-mar-keted in some quarters for an inflationary SIOO. 1 Tha average fan, who must be more mundane about things—even baseball —can see the series via a national television hookup (NBC) or he can listen to it on radio (Mutual) in any of the 48 states. Latin America. Canada, or Alaska. One of the sidelight duels in the classic will be between Mays, and Cleveland's Bobby Avila, who will be the first hatting champions to clash in a series since 1931. Wondrous Willie won the National league hatting crown with an average of .345 and the solid Tribe second baseman t opped the American League title with .341. The Giants, with an infield sparked by Captain Alvin Dark and.an outfield illuminated by the .VJays fellow, are given a defensive edge oyer the Indians and it’s about pick 'em on power with Larry Doby. A! Bos n. Avila, Vic Wertz balance against Mays, Don Mueller. Henry Thompson. Monte Irvin. Dusty 1 Diodes and Dark. Twenty-three game winners Lemon and Wynn, 19-game winner Mike Garcia, Boh Feller, Art Houttcman. Bay Narleski. Don Mossi ‘ and Hal Newhouser. give the Tribq the mound edge over Maglle, 21-game winner Antonelli. Buben Gomez and reliefers Hoyt Wilhelm and Marv Grissom. A million New Yorkers gave the Giants a tick*r-tape reception up Broadway Monday. It’s the only game in lown. Gen. Van Fleet To Testify Wednesday WASHINGTON (INS) Retired Gen.
