Hope for solution

CHICAGO (UPI)—The dispute between National Football League owners and players, which already has delayed the opening of training camps, remained at an impasse today following the players’ rejection of the owners’ latest pension offer.

The continuing dispute also cast doubts on the All-Star game scheduled for Aug. 2 in Chicago in which the college All Stars are pitted against the world champion Green Bay Packers. NFL President Art Modell of

Chiropractic is

AN ASSET TO SOCIETY

Being different, being practical and being effective, gives chiropractic an outstanding value to society. Also, it has value to society because it is fundamental. By that we mean, that it is based upon fundamental truths. Because it is based upon fundamental truths, its value to society will be enjoyed by every succeeding generation until time is no more. In spite of being based upon unchanging fundamental truths chiropractic progresses. But its progress lies to a great extent to improvement in the technique of its application. Therefore, it may be said that chiropractic's value increases with each succeeding generation. Because chiropractic is unchanging in fundamental it does not have the news value that is found in new preparations that replace older, unsatisfactory "wonders.” Chiropractic’s growth in public acceptance Can be credited largely to the efforts of patients who pass word of the advantages of chiropractic to other people who are seeking health. Certainly the chiropractic profession is proud of its record of service to society. But, the chiropractic profession is also happy to acknowledge the great sendee that the Chiropractic Laymen of America have rendered to society by making the value of chiropractic care known to an ever-increasing number of people.

more than 25,000 points, drew a salary in the exclusive neighborhood of $250,000 last season and reportedly demanded a $1 million pact covering the next three years to again sign with the 76ers. In addition to his salary difficulties with Philadelphia owner Irv Kosloff, Chamberlain had also demanded a voice in the selection of the 76ers coach for next season. Alex Hannum, who coached the 76ers to their only NBA championship in 196667, quit at the conclusion of last season to join the Oakland Oaks of the rival American Basket, ball Association as coach and part owner. For Chamberlain, who, along with Elgin Baylor and Jerry West, would provide the Lakers with the most potent 1-2-3 scoring punch in the NBA, the 76ers would get veteran center Darrell Imhoff and guards Jerry Chambers and Archie Clark. Who will finance the stadium? MONTREAL (UPI) — Plans for financing Montreal’s proposed new sports stadium continue to remain a mystery, but spokesmen for the group recently awarded a National League franchise denied Monday all rumors they plan to drop out of professional baseball. The National League awarded Montreal a franchise for the 1969 season, provided the city comes through on its promise to build a major league, size stadium by 1970. Problems concerning the financing of the proposed stadium have arisen in recent weeks, leading to the rumors that the Canadian city would have to abandon its professional baseball plans for the present time. Charles Bronfman, a spokesman for Consortium, the group which was awarded the franchise, said there is “nothing to the reports at all.” Bronfman added, “We had a meeting this afternoon with city hall officials and it went very well.”

— No gun

the Cleveland Browns said all owners had been asked to meet here today to discuss the hassle further. “We may go all day,” Modell said, “and we’ll definitely have something when we get through.” Both the owners and the players held meetings Monday. The players left, however, immediately after John Gordy of the Detroit Lions, president of the NFL Players Association, announced they had turned down the latest pension offer. Gordy held out the possibility of a future meeting. “We are still maintaining that we are ready, willing and able to meet with the owners at any time to resolve this issue,” he said. Vince Lombardi, general manager of the Green Bay Packers, earlier Monday said the Packers would not participate in the All Star game unless the dispute was settled in time for sufficient conditioning of the team. He said the lack of progress in talks raised the “possibility the All Star game could be cancelled.” The owners Monday offered to boost pension contributions 25 per cent in 1968 and 50 per cent in 1969. Modell said the NFL offered to raise its contribution to the pension fund from $900,000 to$l,125,000in 1968and to $1,350,000 in 1969. Opens defense CARNOUSTIE, Scotland (UPI) — Roberto DeVicenzo, golfing’s good-will ambassador from Argentina, opens defense of his British Open championship Wednesday, ready to beat back the challenge of favorite Jack Nicklaus. DeVicenzo, the popular 45-year-old Latin whose travels also take him on the U.S. professional tour, has stamped himself as a strong contender to repeat by blistering the 7,252yard, par 72 Carnoustie course with consecutive sub - par rounds. The South American golfer shot a six-under-par 66 in Monday’s practice round. It was his second straight strong round. He carded a 65 Sunday to tie South Africa’s Bobby Cole for the nine nations title. Despite DeVicenzo’s pair of hot rounds, Nicklaus, leading money winner on the U.S. tour last year, remained a 9-2 favorite. Nicklaus also played a practice round Monday but did not keep score. The American refused to discuss his round. Arnold Palmer, Billy Casper and Gay Brewer, winner of the 1968 Master’s, the meet in which DeVicenzo made an error on his scorecard and muffed a possible chance for the crown, all shot practice rounds in the 70s. Junior Olympics at I.S.U. TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (UPI)The state finals of the AAU Junior Olympics will be held here July 19 on the Indiana State University track. Boys and girls will compete for blue ribbons and the chance to participate in a regional at Maumee, 111., later in the summer.

The Rochester Red Wings climbed back into first place in the International League Monday night by trimming the Buffalo Bisons in both ends of a twi-night doubleheader, 2-0 and 6-5. Red Wing Rick Delgado gave up only one hit in the first game — a seven-inning affair—on the way to his eighth victory against two losses. • Bill Scripture opened Rochester’s scoring in the third inning of the nightcap with the sixth homer of the year. The Red Wings exploded for four runs in the next frame and tallied the winning run in the seventh. Bill Dillman won his fourth game with relief help from Fred Beene. Elsewhere in the IL, Louisvi lie beat Columbus in a doubleheader, 2-1, and 3-2, Syracuse dropped Toledo into

second place by downing the Mud Hens 3-0 and Jacksonville whitewashed Richmond, 5-0. In the seven-inning opener, the Colonels scored the winning run in the final frame to give Ray Jarvis his first victory, a neat four-hitter. A two-run outburst in the sixth inning of the second game helped carry Galen Cisco to his first victory since June 18, and his ninth of the season. The Chiefs scored all their runs in the fifth inning as starter and winner Rich Beck and reliever Hal Reniff scattered six hits. It was Beck’s first victory since May 15. Three Jacksonville pitchers— Bob Hendley, Don Shaw and Larry Bearnarth—allowed only two hits as the Mets rapped Ed Rakow and Ed Barnowski for 10 hits, including solo homers by Larry Stahl, Amos Otis and a two-run blast by Don Dyer.

The mail order bill would bar interstate shipment of rifles, shotguns and ammunition, except between dealers, and restrict store sales to state residents 18 or older. Hunters could ship their guns to themselves for hunting trips, and in limited cases persons could buy guns in a neighboring state. Similar controls over handguns became law last month. Rules Chairman William M. Colmer said he “guessed” the House would pass the new bill with some weakening amendments. The Senate Judiciary Committee has set a Wednesday meeting on gun control legislation. Both the rifle and shotgun bill and registration-licensing proposals are pending before it.
