BALTIMORE — (UPI)—The American Football League's $10 million anti-trust suit against the National Football League will move into its sixth day today in federal court following testimony that television rights to AFL games were worth $3 million.
The estimate was made in testimony yesterday by Jav Michaels, a television agent. He said he made the estimate in 1960, as an agent of the AFL, but that sale of the rights ran into difficulty and he had to settle for about $1,795,000.
Among its charges, the AFL claims the NFL tried to prevent it from arranging television programming. Its principal charge is that the NFL engaged in monopolistic practices aimed at preventing formation of the now two-year-old AFL.
Michaels testified further that the American Broadcasting System and the National Broadcasting Company indicated a desire to televise the AFL games. He said that in the midst of his negotiations with the two he learned that NBC had obtained rights to televise games of the Pittsburgh Steers and the Baltimore Colts.
Both teams, Michaels said, usually were handled by the Columbia Broadcasting System. The move made him feel that his customers to televise AFL games had been reduced to one, he concluded.
Joe Foss, commissioner of the AFL, also testified at yesterday's hearing. He said he wrote letters to NFL officials in 1960 urging them to expand to cities where the AFL did not already have teams and not follow a "scorched earth" policy "designed to destroy our league."
The AFL contends the NFL tried to monopolize professional football and to squeeze out the new league by expanding into cities where the AFL was trying to get started.

Kansas Upsets Cyclones; Gardner Hits 1000 Mark
Jerry Gardner scored the 1,000th point of his college basketball career last night as the KU Jayhawkers upset Iowa State, 76-71, at Ames.
Gardner reached the coveted 1,000-point level when he hit a field goal with 4:25 left in the game.
THE HAWKERS, who never trailed by more than six points, once led by a 12-point advantage, their biggest lead.
The 6-2 Wichita guard led the Jayhawk scoring attack with 31 points to capture game scoring honors.
KU led the Cyclones, 68-56, with 5:45 left. I-State narrowed this margin to 71-68 with 2:20 left.
THE CYCLONES' Vinnie Brewer added the game's final points. Brewer hit three consecutive free throws in the last minute of play.
Harry Gibson scored a pair of free throws, Gardner added career points 1,001, 1,002 and 1,003 from the free throw line, and Jim Dumas hit a free throw to clinch the Hawk victory.
Nolen Ellison, the second member of KU's guard duo, contributed 20 points and Harry Gibson scored 10 points.
BREWSTER AND Gary Wheeler paced I-State's scoring. Brewer connected for 17 points and Wheeler added 15.
The Hawks scored 50 per cent of their field goal efforts.
Iowa State ended the season last night with a 13-12 overall record and an 8-6 Big Eight mark. The Cyclones captured third place in the league standings.
Kansas, which ends the season Saturday against Colorado, now owns a 7-17 overall record and a 3-10 mark for conference play.
GARDNER HAS now scored 674 more points than any other KU guard in history. Maurice King, the previous top scoring Hawk guard, scored 329 career points.
Gardner collected his 500th point a year ago at Ames. (Bell Bridges, former KU forward, also scored his 1,000th point at Iowa State.)
Last night's game marks the first win for KU since the Jayhawkers defeated Nebraska, 73-70, February 21 at Lincoln.
KU TIED the Cyclones 2-2, 26-26, 35-35 and 37-37 before they took a 38-37 half-time advantage on a free throw Gibson scored after the buzzer.
O-State Beats Cats; Buffs Lead Big 8
IT WAS a night of upsets all the way around, with Colorado the only favored team coming through. Kansas whipped Iowa State 76-71 for its third win in 13 conference games, and Nebraska downed Oklahoma at Norman, Okla., 71-69 in overtime.
By United Press International
Colorado's Buffs have clinched at least a tie for the Big Eight conference basketball championship and need only a victory over Kansas Saturday at Boulder, Colo., to win the title outright.
The Buffs defeated Missouri 73-64 last night, while Oklahoma State stunned Kansas State 78-68 to knock the Wildcats, the nation's no. 3 team in the latest United Press International poll, out of a first-place tie.
Colorado nearly fell in the upset wave, as it trailed Missouri 37-34 at
haltime and was outscored from the field 55-44. But the Buffs were deadly at the free throw line, sinking 29 charity tosses in 36 attempts.
Ken Charlton, whose 35 points were a career high, led the Colorado attack and cashed in on 19 of 22 from the free throw line. Center Jim Davis had 17 points for Colorado, while Walt Grebring scored 15 and Ken Doughty 13 for Missouri.
OKLAHOMA STATE built up a 14-point lead in the second half and never was threatened as it hit a masterful 71.9 per cent from the field. It was the New Cowboy victory over Kansas State in 18 games.
Eddie Bunch, Gary Hassmann and Cecil Epperley led the Oklahoma State charge with 18, 17 and 15 points, respectively. But Kansas State's Mike Wroblewski led all scorers with 31.

Dumas returned to the KU lineup for the first time since the Oklahoma State game when he sprained his ankle. Dumas scored five points and contributed greatly to the Kansas 39-31 rebound edge.
The Cyclones established a 43-42 lead before Gardner hit one of his 13 field goals with 16 minutes left and put the Hawks ahead, 44-43. The Hawks led from then on.
John Matt relieved ailing Lee Flachsbarth and scored eight points. Flachsbarth, the Hawk starting center, saw limited action because of flu.
