Friday Night Pro TV Stirs Protest NEW YORK (UPI) — Never in the history of football have five proposed televised games kicked up such a hornet’s nest. The reverberations shook both the professional and college ranks alike Thursday when the American Broadcasting Company confirmed that a sponsor has reserved time on the network to televise five Friday night games in the National Football League next season. Asa Bushnell, executive director of the NCAA TV program, said the action was in opposition to a 1961 federal statute which said the NFL could not sell a package for Friday night or Saturday game telecasts within 75 miles of a college game at those times. The National Federation of State High School Athletic Associations also issued a formal protest. NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle denied the five telecasts constituted a “package” and gave his assurance the 75-mile radius would not be violated. Besides, he added, the television network would contract individually with the clubs involved in the telecasts. The league office would not be involved, he said. Officials of the Columbia Broadcasting System, which presumably purchased “exclusive” two-year TV rights to the NFL’s regular Sunday games, hqd no immediate comment.

American Loop In Middle In A's Situation KANSAS CITY. Mo. The American League found itself caught in a legal rundown today, a predicament more serious to baseball than any rundown ever played on the bast paths. Hie league was maneuvered into its awkward position when Charles O. Finley, owner of the Kansas City Athletics, failed to reach agreement with city officials on a new lease for Municipal Stadium. The league ordered Finley four weeks ago either to sign a lease here by midnight tonight or face expulsion from baseball and forfeiture of his franchise. Neither Finley nor the city was expected to yield in the stalemate during the waning hours before the deadline. Must Act Soon The league must act soon—either to carry out its threat and try to kick Finley out of baseball, or to back down and grant permission to move the Athletics to another city. And the legal ball already is whizzing about , the league’s head, even before it has announced its intentions. The players with the ball are Finley himself, Sen. Edward V. Long, D-Mo., of the Senate anti-trust and monopoly subcommittee, and Mayor Hus Davis of Kansas City. All have made their plans known. All have put the league on a spot —right in the middle. If the league attempts to expel Finley, the owner will fight back in court. He has said repeatedly that no one has the power to take the club away from him. May Change Status If the league permits him to move, Long said, baseball would be acting as a business and not a sport. The senator said the anti-trust committee wants Finley to explain his actions and has invited him to testify at its baseball hearing Tuesday in Washington. Long said he will subpoena Finley to appear, if the owner, does not respond voluntarily to the invitation. And no matter how the league gets on the issue, Davis wants the league either to approve or to disapprove publicly the city’s position in lease negotiations with Finley. Davis, in his request for an opinion Thursday to Joe Cronin, league president, indicated that if the league disapproves of the city’s stand, then the league should offer a compromise proposal. Two Autos Damaged Thursday Morning Two autos were damaged in an accident on S. First street at 11:17 a.m. Thursday. David Gene Smith, 17, of 233, S. Seventh St., was southbound on First street and his auto crashed into the left rear of a car owned by Pete Reynolds, of 318 S. First St., which was parked on the west side of the street. Damages were estimated at $250 to the Reynolds car and $l5O to the Smith auto.
