7 Teams Lead la Top 10 NEW YORK UPI —Success of a team in college football over the past years usually has been dependant on how good the team’s defense was, and this season the same prnciple is holding true. A look at the official NCAA statistics released today show that no less than seven of the nation's top 10 teams are among the leaders in at least one defensive category . Notre Dame, the No 1 ranked team, has shown a good offense, but the real Irish ■'.‘•rength has been in their highly touted defensive line which has limited opposing runners to only 30.5 yards rushing per game. The Irish are far and away the leaders in this category, but it is interesting to note that second-ranked Ohio

Braves In

Court Today MILWAUKEE UPI — The Milwaukee Braves were to have their first legal turn at bat today after having spotted Milwaukee County a score in the battle for a major league base-

ball franchise.

The county, trying to keep the Braves here, won a circuit court restraining order last month to block, at least for the moment, the club’s plans t o move the franchise to Alanta. Today was to be the Braves’ day in court. Federal Judge Robert E. Tehan had scheduled a 10 a. m. hearing on whether his court has jurisdiction in the matter or whether it belongs in circuit court. , The county contends the Braves must schedule their 1965 home games at County Stadium in accordance with the current contract which does not expire until Dec. 31, 1965. The Braves, in an answer filed to the suit in federal court this week, claiming the county had broken the contract. The club said further that if it is found by the court not to be relieved of all obligations to the
