CLEVELAND (UPI) Clevelanders probably can be "I'm not bitter but disappointed that we didn't have the forgiven If they are not quite as gung-ho the second time opportunity to really showcase our city for an entire week down the All-Star road. leading up to the aame," said Dale-Flnlev. bureau LeDoux wins unanimous decision Gillette pro fight card disappoints boxing fans ByDREWPERINE Of The Star-Tribune Staff president.

Co I '4 ft But the city tried Its best Friday to shrug off the disappointment of the strike-postponed All-Star Game and hastily began preparing for the rescheduled midsummer classic Aug. 9. Although city and convention bureau officials and fans generally were relieved that the game finally will be played, most conceded the reset contest won't be quite the bang-up affair originally planned. Taking out some the sting, however, Is the fact that Aug. 8-9 probably will be the biggest sports weekend the city has ever seen, with the All-Star Game following an exhibition football game and a major boxing match.

The Cleveland Browns will meet their archrlvals, the Pittsburgh Steelers, on Saturday night, to be followed Sunday afternoon by former lightweight and welterweight champion Roberto Duran's comeback bid In a Junior middleweight bout against Nino Gonzalez. Capping the weekend will be the Sunday night All-Star Game. "For the weekend of Aug. 9, Cleveland will be the sports capital of the world," said an optimistic Mayor George V. Volnovlch.

"I think we can anticipate tremendous interest in all three of those events and we're going to do our best to make this a memorable weekend for all concerned." The weeks of planning that led up to the July 14 All-Star Game that never came off will have to be compressed Into "I feel a little bit shortchanged, but not totally. We've got the All-Star game. We can handle it. I'd say that Cleveland Is a team town that can work together and pull this off." The rescheduled game probably won't be the same kind of financial bonanza local businessmen had hoped for earlier, Flnley said. The Greater Cleveland Growth Association had estimated $5 million to $8.5 million In overall revenue would be brought Into the metropolitan area by the game -originally set for July 14.

Now, estimates are running on the low end of that original projection at best, and are likely to be less, Flnley said. An All-Star record crowd In excess of 78,000 had been expected, and the city had scheduled numerous events to capitalize on the large numbers of spectators and the national media coverage. Many of those events went ahead even after the game was postponed, and convention officials are hoping to organize some additional activities to again welcome the game to town. Crowds for the rescheduled game likely will be well less than originally expected, although no one can tell for sure yet. Star-TribuneDrew Pertne Scott LeDoux lays against the ropes as Arnold Sam of Carson City moves in.

LeDoux was never in trouble, winning a unanimous 10-round Toying Jury stiil deliberating Raider case GILLETTE It Is debatable who was robbed worse Thursday night at the Campbell County Fair Grounds promoter Mike Lar or the fight fans. Approximately 300 people paid to see what masqueraded as a five-bout professional card. The level of competition was decidedly poor. Three of the bouts ended In first-round knockouts. Another was called In the third round on a technical knockout although the Judges felt otherwise.

And the featured fight between Scott LeDoux and an unknown pudgy Indian named Arnold Sam from Carson City, was little more than a sparring match for LeDoux. "Those were some of the sorriest fights I've ever seen," said fight fan Tom Flnnerty, who punctuated his sentence with a splat of tobacco Juice. "I've seen better action down at the Sands Bar." Lar claims he was robbed ot $2,000 after the fights when he left a pouch containing cash unattended. THE FIRST FIGHT was a ridiculous mismatch. Whatever skills Jimmy Carter of Seattle may have possessed, they were negated by the size of his opponent, Young Rocky Sekorskl of Minnesota, who outweighed him by SO pounds.

Sekorskl, now 5-0, (all knockouts) was cbached by LeDoux and appeared to be a decent fighter In spite of his size advantage. Two good rights sent Carter to the mat twice In the first minute and a halt. The third trip to the ground ended the fight. A junior-middleweight bout between Victor Deloney and Eddie Mehdoza wasn't much different. Deloney was easily the most stylish fighter of the night, possessing quick hands and feet.

Before he even drew a sweat, a flurry of punches put Mendoza on his back. The following fight pitted two swlng-from-the-heels specialists Junior middlewelghts After the first two rounds, it was obvious LeDoux was toying with his opponent. It was the second fight for LeDoux since being laid up after an automobile accident, which broke some vertabrae In his back. After sizing up Sam, he and his manager decided they would let it go the distance. "I'd like to think we could have taken htm out anytime we wanted," LeDoux said, "but4 1 thought It would have been kind of silly after flying all the way out here.

It was obvious that he wasn't going to be throwing any punches so we decided it would be a good workout." They were whether Raiders' owner Al Davis has, as stipulated during the U-week-long trial, an oral contract with the league which would permit him to move and whether there was a violation of good faith and fair practices In his dealings with the league. The Jury, whose only common denominator is that they neither know nor care anything about pro football, could rock the NFL with Its decision. LOS ANGELES (UPI) A federal court jury of seven women and three men, none of whom are fans of pro football, labored through deliberations Friday in a critical test between the Oakland Raiders and the National Football League. It was not a sports Issue but a civil action testing the limits of the Sherman Antitrust Act. The decision of the Jury In any case, was expected to be appealed.

The test was to determine if the Raiders could move Bill Robinson and Brian Jones. Robinson had won previous match between the two, and might have won Thursday night had referee Tom Torres, a 21-year-old former amateur boxer, not hastily called a technical knockout In the third round. Sandwiched In between that bout and the final event which welterweight Charles LaCour won with a first-round knockout of Rod George was the heavyweight bout, featuring LeDoux. His opponent was a late, late entry after the lnltal foe, Harvey Stelchen, withdrew because of a virus and his replacement, Steve Young, refused to show because he felt the pay wasn't good enough. SAM WENT THE DISTANCE, but LeDoux easily outdistanced him on every Judge's card In a unanimous 10-round decision.

Nevertheless, LeDoux gave him credit. "I've got to hand It to that guy," LeDoux said. "He had a hard head. I hit him with a lot of punches that would have floored most guys." Fighting a man like Sam after facing powerhouse boxers like Ken Norton and Larry south and occupy the stadium left vacant 6y the Los Introducing Ice Cream at Granny's Dots Ice Cream Too Holmes Is a humbling experience for LeDoux, Angeles Rams who moved to Anaheim In Orange County. but he's trying to keep his (bin up and out of trouble.

The major question was whether a rule in the NFL Constitution which requires three-fourths of the 28 teams In the league to approve the movement from its home territory of any individual team was In violation of antitrust laws.
