Bell's late father guided the NFL to its present pro- minence, serving as commissioner for 13 years, from 1546 to 1959. The younger Bell said \it is quite clear that Bert Bell's protective ktealogy is not in the mainstream of pro football philosophy. I cannot leod the Bell name to the series of policies that has become the vogue in the last few years/' Bell, who has been with the Colts since 1961, criticized the NFLs television policy, the NFL's capitulation to the AFL\ in their merger, and the \supermarket air that has invaded pro football.\ And he questioned the \complete dis- interest in the season ticket holder.\ Bell objected to the \A Madison avenue gimmickery that has glutted the market wife -NFL- fey-products, and finally to the new sentiment that has arisen—quantity, not quality. The new medium in the NFL is the almighty dollar.\ Bell has been mentioned as a successor to Don Kel- lett, who steps down at the end of this season as Colt general manager but the job went last week to Joe Campanella, a former Cok player. When asked if Campanula's appointment had any* thing to do with his resignation. Bell said \no more than Its involvement with all the other reasons I'm quitting.\ Bell's brother Upton is personnel manager of the Coks. Illinois joins Wisconsin's baseball antitrust fight WASHINGTON (AP) - llii- nois joined Wisconsin Friday in urging the Supreme Court to grant a hearing on the latter state's antitrust battle with baseball. Wisconsin has pending before the tribunal an appeal asking reversal of a decision by the Wisconsin Supreme Court. The decision overturned the convic- tion of the National League and its member clubs on antitrust charges resulting from the move of the Milwaukee Braves ball dub to Atlanta. The Wisconsin Supreme Court said baseball's immunity from federal antitrust law made Wis- consin powerless to enforce its state law against the sport. Illinois in a \friend of the court\ brief signed by Atty. Gen. William G. Clark said Illi- nois last year adopted a new antitrust act modeled in many respects after federal laws. \Illinois has attempted to vig- orously assert its new act against local violations of well recognizecf antitrust policies,\ Clark's brief said. \At the threshhold, however, Illinois is confronted with the decision of the Wisconsin Su- preme Court, which if allowed to stand unmodified may seri- ously impede its attempt to en- force a state antitrust policy which will complement federal antitrust policy and extend it to otherwise unreachable areas.\ Clark said it was the conten- tion of Illinois \that merely be- cause Congress does not choose to regulate a particular business or industry, that industry is not to be deemed exempt from state regulation.\ The U.S. Supreme Court is expected to make known next month whether it will hear ar- gument on the Wisconsin appeal and later announce a final deci- sion. CHAKLOim *• C (AP) -j Tommy Van Helms is ambiti- ous. He's the tMt Bookie of the Year in the National League, but be wants to bat Mi for the Cincinnati Reds next season. \It's a thrill,\ said the » year-old Helms, who is lounging around during the off-season A his home in nearby Mount Hol- ly. He had Just been informed of his rookie selection \It builds your ego. But per- sonally my biggest goal is to hit .300. That is what I wanted most of this past season, but I tapered off in September and didn't make it. I want to start early next season/' said Helms. The huskily-built Cincinnati third baseman was the top- heavy choice of a 20-man com- mittee, composed of two writers from each National League city. He received 12 votes. Shortstop Sonny Jackson of Houston was second in the vot- ing with three, followed by Tito Fuentes, San Francisco short- stop with two. Other votes went to Cleon Jones, New York Mets centerfielder; Randy Hundley, Chicago Cubs catcher; and Larry Jaster, St. Louis Cards pitcher.

One of those was Pete Rose. The other was Frank Robinson, whose trade to Baltimore opened the way for Helms to get into the Reds line- up on a regular basis. \I thought I was ready in 1965,\ said Helms. \I had hit .300 for San Diego the year be- fore. But when they sent me back in 65, I got down on my- self. \1 was struggling along, hit- ting about .190. then Eddie Leishman, the general manager at San Diego, had a talk with me. He told me the biggest mis- take I could make would be to quit after one disappointment. 4 He told me there were scouts in the park every day,\ Helms said. 'and that Cincinnati wasn't the only team in the ma- jors. If the Reds didn't bring me up, somebody else would be glad to get me. That's what got me going in my final season at San Diego.\ SUCK KN1CK - New York's Dave Stan- worth (0) leaps Ugh for rebound in early action play against Ctncinaati. Oscar Robert- Bud Green, Rudy Holmes, Jack- ie Titterington, Joe Forrest, Noel Favro and Ron Lombard.

During his recovery period. Robinson will do some pre- • scribed exercises to build up his knee for spring training. Barnes joins Waiver list ATLANTA. Ga.
