Udall bills limit television exposure of major sports
Representative Morris K. Udall proposes a bill to curb televised seasons for baseball from April opening week to the second Sunday in September, football from September to the second Sunday in January, and basketball from December to the second Sunday in April. He argues TV controls sports and says the measure could save marriages, though it has little chance of passage. He notes his background as a former Nuggets player and urges a return to an athletic calendar less dominated by TV.
