DOUGLAS, Isle of Man (AP) World champion Giacomo Agostini of Italy won the 350cc International Tourist Trophy motorcycle race yesterday, his ninth victory in six years over the gruelling Isle of Man course. Japanese Yamahas took the next three places, with 0, in the final match at La Costa Country Club.

They describe his record on the Supreme Court as liberal with a tinge of conservatism.

Whizzer White got in his Oxford University training by quitting the Steelers for a year. When he returned in 1940, Rooney sold him to the Detroit Lions for $5,000 cash, which tided the Steelers over in their perennial financial' crunch. With the Lions, White showed he was no flash in the pan. He led the NFL in rushing again, as soon as "He also did all the team's punting," said Johnny Blood. "White could do many things.

By SHIRLEY POVICH Gannett News Service Special WASHINGTON Joe Namath, plagued by the intolerable truth he is no longer the highest paid football player in the land, has instructed his lawyers to get him more money from the New York Jets. Namath's vanity could be pampered, his lawyers suggest, by a salary in the $250,000 range, which would nicely upstage the $200,000 wage the Patriots agreed to pay Joe Kapp. The that Namath is asking could not fail to bewilder the late owner of the Redskins, George Preston Marshall. When Art Rooney, owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers, signed a young Ail-American halfback from the University of Colorado for $15,000, Marshall publicly complained that by such wanton prodigality Rooney was starting a trend that would break every team in the league. Rooney's $15,000 halfback Touch-Tone service may sound like a luxury, but it's not.

Especially when you consider the added convenience of pushbuttons that let you tap numbers twice as fast as you can dial. And after a one-time connection charge, only $1.50 per month puts Touch-Tone service on your phones, including all your extensions. So start living with the speed, convenience and modern look of Touch-Tone phones. In your choice of colors and styles. Call your local Telephone Business Office and order yours today.

The young man wasn't instantly eager to join the Steelers (then called the Pirates) even at that huge salary for the times.

He had just been selected as a Rhodes scholar. But he arranged a deferment by Oxford authorities and in 1938 he reported to the Pittsburgh head coach, Johnny Blood. This caused a bit of imbalance in club salaries, said Blood, who was on tour in Washington the other day. "While the rookie halfback was getting $15,000, the Steelers were only paying me $3,800 as head coach and running back, too," Blood remembered. But, he added, in all due modesty, the difference in pay was justified.

"I coached the Steelers to a 2-9 season," he said, "but even on that poor a team Whizzer White led the whole NFL in yards gained rushing." Johnny Blood's interest in Whizzer White has recently been renewed. He is on tour as an official whipperup of public sentiment for Supreme Court Justice Byron S. "Whizzer" White as president of the United States. There is a Draft Justice White for President Committee and his old coach is active in it. "We're playing for a stalemate at the Democratic Convention in Miami, where we hope first to win the uncommitted delegates.

Meanwhile we're floating the name of Justice White." All of this is without the consent of Justice White, Blood points out. "Whizzer says the subject is not discussable, which is the correct attitude for him," said Blood. "But Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes took the same stance in 1916 before the Republicans persuaded him to run against Woodrow Wilson."
