Canton McKinley Court Action Draws Full House

In Columbus AP report spectators packed the Canton McKinley Court action as attorneys argued in the Ohio Supreme Court over the legality of Canton McKinley High School 1962 football suspension. Stark County Prosecutor Norman J. Putman urged the common pleas court to enjoin the suspension, while Paul M. Herbert contended the court lacked jurisdiction. Herbert claimed Canton McKinley violated association rules by “stealing” two players from Portsmouth High School, prompting the suspension.
