Clay Told To File Suit After Induction
The federal government says Cassius Clay should be inducted before challenging draft rules. Clay sought a temporary restraining order to delay induction on April 11 and to appeal a district ruling. Government lawyers argue the Supreme Court requires induction or habeas corpus relief, making his suit premature. Clay, 25, has contracts for three fights worth at least 460000 and had just KOed Zora Folley in New York. His hearing on the appeal is set for March 29 in Louisville Kentucky.
