Bristol Signs
CINCINNATI UPI —Dave Bristol, youngest manager in the major leagues, today signed a one-year contract to manage the Cincinnati Reds again next season. Bristol, 33, took over as the Reds field boss on an interim basis after Don Heffner was fired in July. The Reds immed- ! iately went on a hot streak and won 21 of next 30 games. However, they have tapered off recently and now occupy seventh place in the National League. The tobacco - chewing North Carolinian never played, coach-, ed or managed in the majors before this season when he was named third base coach under Heffner. He began his managerial career with Homell, N.Y, in the Cass D New York-Pennsylvania League in 1958. Bristol rose through a succession of managerial appointments to become pilot of the Reds’ San Diego farm team in the Pacific Coast League two years ago.

Senate Approves Bill WASHINGTON UPI — The U.S. Senate Monday voted to grant anti-trust immunity to the merger of the National and American Football Leagues. The legislation was passed by voice vote in routine fashion along with a long string of other bills. There was no dissent. Despite the quick and easy approval by the Senate, the bill faced extremely hazardous going in the House where Chairman Emanuel Celler, D-N.Y. of the House Judiciary Committee, opposes the bill. Celler said he will not act on the bill because he does not feel it is reccesary. He said, however, he is not opposed to the merger. The Senate last year approved legislation which would have granted anti-trust immunity to the non-business aspects of all professional sports such as player drafts and territorial rights. The refusal of the House to act doomed the bill.
