Collapse Over

WASHINGTON (AP)— Hopes dimmed Thursday for <congres- sional approval ofa bill that would cléar the way. for the merger of the National and American football leagues. ;

Lawyers ‘for the. combined leagues’ and the House anti - trust subcommittee were unable to agree on language exempting the proposed merger from anti- trust, action: .

With Congress hoping to ad- journ next week ,and subcom- mittee chairman Eamuel Cel: ler saying he wants to “plumb the depths’’ of the merger plan, there appears little chance the House will get to act on the bill.

Only the fact that a substan- tial majority of Celler’s subcom- mittee favors the bill keeps alive a faint possibility that it might still.squeeze through. If it doesn’t, NFL commissioner

_ | Pete Rozelle says he will urge
