Low Pressure United
Football League Will
Continue Play In ’62
CHICAGO UPI — There Is a place for low pres-
sure professional football, George Gareff believes and
he said today he expects to find It with his United Foot-
ball League.
Gareff, commissioner of the
infant circuit heading into its
second year of operation with at
least; eight teams, was here to
attend the ceremonial signing
of veteran Chicago Bears de-
fensive end Ed Sprinkle as
coach of the seventh UFL team,
the Chicago Bulls.
“Nobody made money last
year,” Gareff said, “and I’d say
the average loss was $20,000. But
that’s because I insisted on hus-
band and wife accounting. How
much came in and how much
went out. No amortization of
funds. Nothing for equipment.
No davenport you can use five
years.
“I thfnk maybe three or four
teams can make money or break
even this year, because their
equipment will be paid for."
Starts With Six
Gareff, a Columbus, Ohio, at-
torney, said the UF was his
idea and he sold the notion of a
franchise to six cities last year,
Columbus, Grand Rapids, In-
dianapolis, Akron, Cleveland and
Iouisville. In addition to Chicago
for 1962, Harrisburg, Pa., and
Wheeling, W. Va., would be in
the league. "I don’t think we can
go with more than 12 teams,”
he said.
Chisago franchise holder Bob
Angus, who said he expected to
lose money this year, purchased
the UFL franchise for $5,000 and
like every other owner put up a
$5,000 "completion of the sea-
son” bond and a $25,000 bond
that he wouldn’t jump the
league.
Angus, who has operated the
Chicago Hornets in the semi-pro
Tri-State League for tw'o sea-
sons said he applied for the UFL
franchise because he couldn’t
get “an answer” from the
American Football League, to
whom he also applied.
“Joe Foss AFL commissioner
sent Angus to me,” Gareff said.
“He also sent me the Harris-
burg-Hershey people last
September.”
Three Avenue*
Gareff said he believed his
UFL could go three ways—In-
come a third major league, de-
velop into a farm system for the
NFL and AFL, or remain an
independent minor league.
We’ve sent 19 players this
year up to the NFL or the AFL,”
he said, "and there’ll lie more.
We use the NFL player contract
without an option clause, ex-
cept to the team he plays with.
There’s no trading or selling
of players, and after one season
the player is a free agent if he
can make a deal with a major
league team.
“We Insist that each team be
captilized for $75,000 to $100,000
and each visiting team i* guar-
anteed $500 per game against 10
cents for each adult admission.
Last year we drew between 150,-
000 and 200,000 for 30 games.'
This year, Gareff said, the
league will play a 12-game sche-
dule starting Sept. 8 and ending
Nov. 24 with the title game be-
tween divisional champions one
week later.

On April 5th, the Houston Colts

A news release from the San

Had occasion Sunday after-

„----- „—w.. -.............. — calendar
final rounds in the $50,000 Palmjjj^ pres* International
Springs golf tournament, and it REASON STANDINGS
was exciting.
Arnold Palmer, one erf the
best-known golfers in the nation
came from behind to nose out
old pro Gene Littler in the final
round, which the latter started
with a three-stroke lead. How-
ever, Palmer, who has always.
finished strong, played top-notch
golf to take up the slack and top j TLL
money — something over $5000. j co
Littler and Jay’Hebert tied for; Team
second place. | Texas Tech
Biggest winner of the matchesj “ice
however, was Dick Mayer, who Texas
made a hole-in-one Saturday.
That single shot was good for
$50,000. an amount offered to
any player in the tournament,
who could turn the trick, unless , ^
two golfers made aces, in which
case that amount would be divi-
ded equally between them.
We’re told this is the third
for this tournament and each
year the sponsors have had to
pay off 50 grand for an ace.
Lloyds of London insures
against the ace and they boost-
ed the premium to $18,000 this
j year, and undoubtedly another
I boost in the premium cost is in
i prospect.
So, the past three Palm
Springs PGA tournaments have
fumed out to be $100,000 match-
es rather than the advertised
$50,000 affairs.
