Supreme Court overturns Ali draft evasion conviction
The Supreme Court reversed Muhammad Ali's draft evasion conviction, ruling the Justice Department erred by treating his religious based opposition as non religious and by ignoring a hearing officer's finding that Ali was sincere and a conscientious objector. The decision cited Ali's religious training and beliefs within Islam and noted government concessions on his beliefs being religiously grounded.

Just Like Old Times at Old-Timer's Game in Los Angeles
Carl Erskine, vice-president of the First National Bank of Madison County, greets Casey Stengel during the Old-Timer's game on June 6 in Los Angeles. They faced each other in five World Series with Erskine pitching for the Dodgers and Stengel managing the Yankees. The event recalls the 1953 World Series memory of 14 strikeouts by Erskine, a record until 1955. Stengel lives in Burbank and helped organize a bank there. Erskine has been with First National since 1964.
