MK -Liftf ON THREE-HITTER Gibson Wins 16th Limited exemption from antitrust law restrictions would be granted to professional baseball, football and hockey under a bill passed by the Senate. The Senate's voice vote approval Tuesday sent the measure to the House, where it faces a less than bright future. House members have shown no great interest in similar legislation introduced there. The bill as passed would place the business aspects of the four professional sports under antitrust jurisdiction, but would exempt their purely sports activities. Baseball thus would lose some of its questioned exemption, but the others would benefit.

The exemptions would apply to: The player draft and other steps to equalize the playing strength of league teams, League franchise agreements guaranteeing teams exclusive territorial rights in their areas. Arrangements to police the conduct of teams, players and officials through the employment of commissioners with broad disciplinary powers. Such business affairs as ownership deals and the awarding of service contracts would be subject to antitrust challenge.

National League president Warren Giles admitted Tuesday that part of the fine and suspension he handed San Francisco pitcher Juan Marichal for hitting Los Angeles catcher John Roseboro with a bat was an order he not pitch in the Frisco-LA series coming up next week.
